With a Song on Their Lips: Even if you’re not plugged into the New York theatre scene, you can still enjoy the musical performanc­es on the 68th Annual Tony Awards. The highlight is sure to be Neil Patrick Harris doing a number from Hedwig and the Angry

Inch. But keep an eye out as well for the GTA’s own Ramin Karimloo and the cast of Les Misérables (CH, CBS at 8). Dark Matters: It’s time to wrap

Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey. Host Neil deGrasse Tyson looks at dark energy, supernovas and the “romantic” message that the Voyager probe carried into space. The finale also revisits Carl Sagan’s “The Pale Blue Dot” meditation (Global, Fox at 9).

The Battle of Castle Black: You really don’t want to miss the penultimat­e Season 4 episode of Game of

Thrones, do you? Not if the words “Red Wedding” mean anything to you. It’s time for Jon Snow (Kit Harington), Samwell Tarly (John Bradley) and the rest of the motley crew at Castle Black to battle the wilding invaders (HBO at 9).

Greendale Represent: Fans might want to immerse themselves in Com

munity while they still can since the sitcom has been cancelled by NBC. In the episode “VCR Maintenanc­e and Educationa­l Publishing,” Jeff, Shirley and Professor Hickey ( Breaking Bad’s Jonathan Banks) find a hidden cache of textbooks, Abed and Annie choose a new roommate, and Dean Pelton raps (City at 9).

Campaign Follies: The critically acclaimed Veep ends it season with back-to-back episodes. With Thornhill ahead in the polls, the staff try to make Selina (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) seem more “folksy” — apparently fleece and “mom jeans” are involved — and Selina has an interview with pretentiou­s journalist Quincy Carter (Nick Wyman) (HBO at 10).

Note: I’m taking a vacation from the TV corner for the next two weeks. TV Tonight will return June 29.
