Tonight's Top Pick is the premiere of Erased: WW2's Heroes of Color, a four-part documentary that will air its first two episodes Monday, June 3 on National Geographic. The National Geographic premiere concludes next week, while the series will also be available in full Tuesday, June 4 through Disney+ and Hulu.
