What's On Tonight (Sunday): Robert Durst, still dead

The Jinx, Part Two

Killed them all, of course! Here's what's on television for tonight, Sunday, April 28!

Our Top Pick tonight is The Jinx – Part Two (HBO & Max, 10 p.m.). This sequel to the 2015 docuseries follows everything that has happened in the 8 years since, including new interviews, hidden material, and prison calls. Durst, convicted of a murder in 2021, died the following year before another murder trial. The original series was great, but I don't think it needs a follow-up. But America loves a murderer.

Elsewhere, the Tracker tracks in Idaho, History does PR work for Mega-Brands and Disney, CSI gets fit, a Spark is back, Lifetime calls in a Replacement, Guilt is still a thing, Easter Calls the Heart, Atlanteans approach Krapopolis, and there's a blizzard in the Great North.
