What's On Tonight (Wednesday): The future is female

Land of Women

Is that your final answer? Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, July 10!

Our Top Pick tonight is Land of Women (Apple TV+, midnight). Based on Sandra Barneda's bestseller, this limited series has New York socialite Eva Longoria discovering her husband has done bad dealings, so for her safety, she escapes to remote Spain with her mom, Carmen Maura (a familiar face to Pedro AlmodΓ³var fans), and teenage daughter. Broke, they find refuge at a struggling winery. I find it an intriguing subject but it's way too light for 6 episodes. 

Elsewhere, Rashida Jones wants to find the Sunny, Serena Williams gets docuseries treatment, SpongeBob is Under again, a new gang has a Claim to Fame, e-gamers become Gods, the Masters get aged and fermented, and love is enough for Reginald.
