| Grown-ish |
Aloha! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, May 22!
Our Top Pick tonight is the series finale of Grown-ish (Freeform, 10 p.m. / Hulu, Thursday). After six seasons and two of the Johnson kids as young adults, the youthful Black-ish spinoff concludes. I always enjoyed the show as I loved Black-ish -- and this show was definitely a retry at A Different World -- though when Junior/Andre joined, it was a jolt and I'm not sure keeping some of the cast around really worked. Honestly, I'd love to see this show with Jack and Diane. Hashtag Zoey for Life.
Elsewhere, there can only be one Survivor, One Chicago closes down leaving the Windy City open to summer crime, Abbott preps for summer break, Apple is Trying, Loot's ex steals the spotlight, Jeopardy has a new Master, London is for sale, Nature goes to Ireland, a Singer is unMasked, and Top Chef gorges meat.
