What's On Tonight (Monday): Whose house? Poppa's House!

 

Via Giphy.

Tonight's Top Pick is the series premiere of Poppa's House, because I do find it kind of adorable that Damon Wayans, père et fils, are doing a show together.

While I still try to convince Jason Alexander to play my father in That's Our Franko!, let's see what else TV has to offer us for Monday, Oct. 21. All times are EST.
