WATCH THIS: WEDNESDAY

“Marrying Millions” (9:03 p.m., 1:04 a.m., Lifetime): This hit docuseries, which looks at couples wherein the partners come from vastly different socioecono­mic classes, opens Season 2 with fan-favorite Season 1 couples Bill and Brianna from Dallas and Las Vegas pair Gentille and Brian joined by five new couples. Among the newbies: Washington, D.C., wine millionair­e Rodney and his Los Angeles girlfriend Desiry, who works for a non-profit.

“Coroner” (8 p.m., CW): This Canadian import, adapted from a book series by M.R. Hall, stars Serinda Swan as Toronto coroner Dr. Jenny Cooper. Recently widowed, Jenny has a teenage son, Ross (Ehren Kassam), who is still mourning his late father. On the job, Jenny works with homicide detective Donovan McAvoy (Roger Cross); Dr. Dwayne Allen (Lovell Adams-Gray), a pathologis­t, and his assistant, River Baitz (Kiley May). Eric Bruneau also stars. In the premiere, “Black Dog,” Jenny investigat­es a death in a teenage detention center.

“Forged in Fire” (8 p.m., 11:03 p.m., History): In what is being billed as the first-ever pay-to-play competitio­n in this show’s history, four smiths are expected to fork over some of their forge funds to secure the special tools they need to make certain signature blades. Two rounds later, a couple of the smiths are bankrupt, while the other two return home to re-create the Boateng Saber, the most expensive sword ever sold. One smith will prevail, winning $10,000 and the title of Forged in Fire champion. David Baker, Doug Marcaida, J. Neilson and Ben Abbott are the judges. Wil Willis hosts.

“Corporate” (9:30 p.m., 10:45 p.m., Comedy Central): If the charm of working from home during quarantine is wearing thin, this critically acclaimed workplace sitcom may help by reminding just how soul-crushing and grim office life can be — all from a caustic comedy perspectiv­e, of course. In the new episode “The Importance of Talking S...,” the staff at Hampton DeVille gossip and take passive-aggressive approaches to workplace conflicts, while also creating unlikely bonds and new adversarie­s alike. Matt Ingebretso­n, Jake Weisman, Lance Reddick and Anne Dudek star.
