What's On Tonight (Wednesday): Bay watch

The Bay

Space! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, October 2!

Our Top Pick tonight is the 5th season finale of The Bay (BritBox, 3 a.m.). This British crime drama (like there's any other kind) is centered on detectives in Morecambe Bay in the Lancashire county and has a style that's more than a little similar to Broadchurch. It stars Marsha Thomason, who joined after original star Morven Christie departed, and the cast also includes Daniel Ryan, Erin Shanagher, and Barry Sloane.

Elsewhere, Nova looks at intergalactic climate change, the late '70s are back in style in the soapy Space Age, Sophie Turner is Joan, the new Casa Bonita is documented, the Monkey is in danger, Discovery is DamnedHorses find the enemy, The Ark finds a place too good, Everybody Still Hates the KKK, Maggie returns to the Crossing, and the Dead still have Secrets.
