What's On Tonight (Monday): There was a dead queen played a game, and Bingo was its name-o

 

Via Tenor.

Tonight's Top Pick is Who Killed the Bingo Queen?, an Investigation Discovery special airing at 9 p.m. It was either going to be this or the season premiere of The Wall, and I think I made the right choice.

While I mull over which would be the biggest indignity, getting your wheelchair thrown through a bingo parlor window, hitting your head on the neon sign while your wheelchair's thrown through a bingo parlor window, or dying as a dummy in a wheelchair thrown through a bingo parlor window, let's see what else TV has to offer us for Monday, Jan. 5. All times are Eastern.

My Life Is Murder, 3:01 a.m., Acorn TV. Fifth season premiere. "Gimme an M." "When a fitness influencer suddenly dies while livestreaming, Alexa dives into the world of elite cheerleading to uncover the truth. But as secrets, lies, and rivalries erupt, she realizes the killer may be closer to the squad than suspected."
