What's On Tonight (Sunday): Let the Bodies hit the floor

Nine Bodies in a Mexican Morgue

Movies' biggest night! Here's what's on television for tonight, Sunday, March 2!

Our Top Pick tonight is the series premiere of Nine Bodies in a Mexican Morgue (MGM+, 9 p.m.). (Remember when networks didn't even try against the Oscars?) This latest MGM+ program, led by Eric McCormack, starts out with a plane crash and the survivors stranded in Mexico. Not purgatory. Then they start being killed one by one. The tagline is something like 10 passports, 9 bodies in the morgue. So maybe there's only gonna 1 survivor? Is the killer within the group? Is the Mexico setting important? I think it all kinda sounds silly.

Elsewhere, Conan host the Oscars, the Americas includes the Amazon and wild West, Great North has pizza, Mayfair deserves saving, Grimsburg hires a kid, Family Guy joins SCOTUS, truth Calls the Heart, and Idol auditions begin.

(All times are Eastern. All listings are new unless otherwise stated. For more listings, visit The Futon Critic or Zap2it.)
