What's On Tonight (Tuesday): Will viewers tell Found to get lost? NBC hopes not!

Tonight's Top Pick is Found, which premiered last week. It's pretty popular with Cancellation League contestants, so naturally, I want it to fail.


While I rejoice in finding a natural outlet for misanthropy, let's see what else TV has to offer us for Tuesday, Oct. 10. All times are EST.


STREAMING
Mr. Dressup: The Magic of Make-Believe, 12:01 a.m., Amazon. Premiere. "A detailed look about a famed, iconic television show from Canada that impacted multiple generations and its ongoing legacy."

Painkiller: The Tylenol Murders, 3:01 a.m., Paramount+. Premiere. "It's a story that captivated the nation in 1982 when seven people, mostly in and around Chicago, died suddenly and without explanation. ... The deaths were soon dubbed the 'Tylenol Murders' and started a frenzy to find the person responsible as fear spread across the country and store owners pulled Tylenol from their shelves. Painkiller takes viewers inside the chaos of that time as police search for answers to one of the most notorious unsolved crimes. The case tortured families, a city and a nation for decades." Five episodes available.
