What's On Tonight (Sunday): Tastes like Chicken


Robot Chicken

OK... but I get to be on top! Here's what's on television for tonight, Sunday, July 20!

Our Top Pick tonight is a special edition of Robot Chicken (Adult Swim, 11:30 p.m. / HBO Max, Monday). More than 3 years since the 11th season concluded, the Chicken returns for a special about going on the more recent American staple: reality shows. I'd consider everything from Ghost Nation to Love Island to Mythbusters to Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives is on the table. The special has 3 years of pop culture parodies to run through.

Elsewhere, Nautilus isn't swallowed by an eel, Luke will escape the InstituteRick dines out, the CW defies boat sizes, and a man married a women Who Knew Too Much

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