| It: Welcome to Derry |
I don't care, I love It! Here's what's on television for tonight, Sunday, October 26!
Our Top Pick tonight is the series premiere of It: Welcome to Derry (HBO & HBO Max, 9 p.m.). This prequel to the recent two-film adaptation of Stephen King's It takes place in the 1960s when a new family comes to town and bad things start to happen. Bill SkarsgΓ₯rd returns to portray the evil Pennywise. I haven't heard confirmation one way or another if this is also a prequel to Derry Girls.
Elsewhere, Talamasca enters Anne Rice's Immortal Universe, Jeremy Renner is still the Mayor, a Burger kid gets taken of hall duty, CNN analyzes the Heist, Tracker finds the Process, New Orleans loves Mardi Gras, and Clowns go viral.
