What's On Tonight (Wednesday): The UnPrisoned confessions

Unprisoned

Veto power! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, July 17!

Our Top Pick tonight is season 2 of UnPrisoned (Hulu, midnight). I bet you didn't know this comedy existed. It stars Kerry Washington as a family and marriage therapist who struggles with relationships, especially those of her dad, Delroy Lindo, who spent his life in and out of jail. Her son, Faly Rakotohavana, also has his issues, including anxiety and no word on who his father is. I think it's a delightful show, which is aided a lot by some excellent cast chemistry.

ElsewhereThe Ark goes forth, MasterChef plays soccer, Big Brother is back for us to watch, rockets go to Wild Space, the Presumed pivots, T • P Bon is already on season 2, Simone Biles is still Rising, and Biden talks to Black America.
