Tonight's Top Pick is House of Payne, airing its ... holy shit, 357th episode. That's 155 more than The Cosby Show had, 142 more than Family Matters had and 104 more than The Jeffersons had.
While I marvel at the fact that Family Matters achieved more than 200 episodes, let's see what else TV has to offer us for Tuesday, Aug. 20. All times are EST.
STREAMING
Muslim Matchmaker, 12:01 a.m., Hulu. Series premiere. "Matchmakers Hoda and Yasmin are on a mission - to help Muslim American singles find their lifelong partner while staying true to their faith. This duo isn't messing around with modern dating apps and hook-up culture. From cringey first dates to moments of profound connection, Hoda and Yasmin support their clients in navigating the complexities of dating with the intention of marriage while staying true to their values and beliefs."
Face to Face with Scott Peterson, 3:01 a.m., Peacock. Series premiere. "It was a case that captivated the country. At eight months pregnant, Laci Peterson went missing on Christmas Eve, 2002. As the investigation unfolded, her husband Scott was revealed to be a liar, a cheater, and ultimately a murderer. The world's media hung on every moment of the trial, and Scott was convicted and sentenced to death. Case closed. Or is it? For the first time since before his arrest in 2003, Scott speaks on camera in a series of intimate conversations revealing his side of the story with Director and Executive Producer Shareen Anderson, who has been investigating this case for over a decade. While many still believe the jury got it right, Scott's family and experts close to the case have spent over 20 years committed to uncovering inconsistencies in the evidence as well as finding new information around alternative theories surrounding Laci's murder. And in a shocking twist on a murder the world thought was solved, the Los Angeles Innocence Project takes over Scott's case in 2024." Three episodes available.
