| Widow's Bay |
Sharing is caring! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, April 29!
Our Top Pick tonight is the series premiere of Widow's Bay (Apple TV, midnight). This horror comedy from Parks & Rec writer Katie Dippold and helmed by Hiro Murai centers on small town-life (Schitt's Creek, Northern Exposure, Gilmore Girls) where everyone believes the town is cursed. And they might be right. Matthew Rhys is the outsider mayor. I'm going to assume this is an Americans sequel series.
Elsewhere, PBS teaches adults about sharing, the Testaments scribe an origin story, Nova traces democracy's origins, Imperfect finds an end, MrBeast is a Survivor, Margo goes to Vegas, and the P.D. kick it old school by investigating a VHS tape.
(All times are Eastern. All listings are new unless otherwise stated. For more listings, visit The Futon Critic or Gracenote.)
