What's On Tonight (Tuesday): Drugs in the Dormitory? Larceny at the Lodgings? No, Only Murders in the Building

 

Via Giphy.

Tonight's Top Pick is the return of Only Murders in the Building, with the return of Paul Rudd and now featuring this promising newcomer, Meryl Streep. I dunno, something about her says "Watch this lady."

While we see she (and we like what we see!), let's see what else TV has to offer for Tuesday, Aug. 8. All times are EST.


STREAMING

Only Murders in the Building, 12:01 a.m., Hulu. Third season premiere. "The Show Must..." and "The Beat Goes On." "After Ben Glenroy's collapse on stage, Charles, Oliver and Mabel piece together the show's first days with a suspicious cast and crew to determine if foul play was involved." Later, "Mabel, Oliver and Charles attend Ben's lavish memorial full of fans and those with more dubious motives. As the actor's sudden death is mourned, Oliver works to revive his shaky Broadway show."

Untold: Johnny Football, 3:01 a.m., Netflix. Premiere. "In 2012, Johnny Manziel is a star quarterback at Texas A&M. The money rolls in, the scrutiny grows, and the scandals pile up. Losing his way, Manziel fumbles his shot at NFL success but goes on to find inner peace and happiness."
