| The Librarians: The Next Chapter |
We know drama! Here's what's on television for tonight, Sunday, August 2!
Our Top Pick tonight is the season premiere of The Librarians: The Next Chapter (TNT, 9 p.m.). The first Librarians, a spin-off of a series of TV movies, was silly low-budget fantasy about saving mysterious, ancient artifacts that had it had its moments -- and was aided by good casting with familiar faces. This sequel series, with a new team led by the Librarian of 1847 after his release from imprisonment, is mostly low-budget fantasy. I presume if you have a fantasy itch that needs scratching, this series will be serviceable.
Elsewhere, Lioness is still a thing, Dead City holds old enemies, CNN revisits the Decades in Sports, a Little Girl might not be a fake, the President handles a dead Nessie.
