What's On Tonight (Tuesday): Here's ... Jimmy!

 

Via Giphy.

Tonight's Top Pick is The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon 10th Anniversary Special. I've said it before, but it's notable how late night talk show anniversary specials used to be an annual thing to now only airing at the decade and half-decade marks. I guess this means Seth Meyers will get a special, I dunno, in the fall?


While I channel Jane Curtin and sarcastically say that Ed Ames with the tomahawk gets funnier every single year, let's see what else TV has to offer us for Tuesday, May 14. All times are EST.


STREAMING
The Killing Kind, 12:01 a.m., Hulu. Series premiere. "Based on Jane Casey's best-selling book of the same name. Nobody understands the dark gap between justice and the law better than Ingrid Lewis (Emma Appleton). As a successful barrister, Ingrid is used to dealing with tricky clients, but no-one rivals John Webster (Colin Morgan). Charming, good-looking, successful and clever. Webster was accused of coercive control by an ex-girlfriend and in court Ingrid successfully defended him, winning the case. Following the trial, Ingrid got close to Webster, too close and when she tried to exit the relationship, he turned on her and her world imploded. Now, just when she is rebuilding her life, he suddenly reappears and tells her that someone is out to kill her and only he can protect her. Fueled by a need to find out the truth and locked in a game of cat and mouse, Ingrid must decide if Webster is friend or foe, murderer or protector, stalker or savior? And can Ingrid discover the truth before it is too late?" Six episodes available.
