What's On Tonight (Monday): No man is a Deal or No Deal Island

 

Via NBC.

Tonight's Top Pick is the season finale of Deal or No Deal Island, which has been renewed. Confession time: I've never actually watched Deal or No Deal and have no clue how the game is played. Putting it on an island means nothing to me other than giving Survivor reminders, and I'm not sure that was intended.

While I reflect on my general lack of knowledge about modern TV, let's see what Monday, May 13 has to offer us. All times are EST.


STREAMING
After the Flood, 3:01 a.m., Britbox. Series premiere. "Underwater" and "The Arrival." "After discovering a body after a devastating flood, PC Jo Marshall (Sophie Rundle) begins investigating the man's possible murder however, pursuing the killer will change everything for the small town." Later, "Jo's actions bring an unwelcome visitor to Waterside, who threatens to expose her secret investigation." Two episodes per week through Monday, May 27.

Later, "Harry and Fergus have to contend with a rival private detective, a gangster's henchman and an utterly baffling mystery when the girlfriend of a head chef's decapitated head is served up on a platter. Elsewhere, Paula makes a huge, life-changing announcement and Glenn pops the question to his long-time girlfriend, Petra." Two episodes available, followed by one per week through Monday, June 10.
