Tonight's Top Pick is 2024 Back That Year Up, which I'm now learning has been a thing since 2022. Kevin Hart and Kenan Thompson return.

While I see how quickly this week's posts can be written, let's see what else TV has to offer us for Monday, Dec. 23. All times are EST.


STREAMING
2024 Back That Year Up, 3:01 a.m., Peacock. Special presentation. "Kevin Hart and Kenan Thompson will have help recapping the year from guest stars who made plenty of headlines this year. Emmy-winner Jon Hamm from Landman and mgk (Machine Gun Kelly) will be dropping by the studio along with the Los Angeles Dodgers Mookie Betts, retired NBA great Blake Griffin, and WNBA power forward Jonquel Jones. Professional funny people Nate Bargatze, Seth Meyers and Rashida 'Sheedz' Olayiwola are also on deck to close out the year with a few hysterical one-liners. And none other than Kenny G will provide the smooth jazz musical stylings that this comedy special so richly deserves."

What If ...?, 3:01 a.m., Disney+. "What If... Agatha Went to Hollywood?" "Howard Stark may have helped the Allies win World War II... but what he really wants to do is direct! On the set of Stark Pictures’ first production, the playboy auteur quickly finds himself enchanted by his bewitching lead actress, Agatha Harkness. Little does she know there will be another superpower co-star on the call sheet... Kingo."
