THURSDAY’S BEST PICKS
8PM G Walker A panic-stricken Dan (guest star Dave Annable) is forced to ask Liam (Keegan Allen) for help after the former learns that the dangerous Serano (guest star Henderson Wade) has been released on bail in the new episode “Sucker Punch.” Liam understandably isn’t eager to get involved, however, until Dan makes him a tempting offer that could put Serano behind bars for good. There’s just one catch: They can’t let Walker (Jared Padalecki) in on their plans. Odette Annable and Kale Culley also star.
9PM _ Call Me Kat As Kat (Mayim Bialik) stares down the barrel of turning 40, boyfriend Oscar (Christopher Rivas) scrambles to arrange multiple surprises to make the milestone birthday special, including — what could possibly go wrong? — meeting his mother, in the new episode “Call Me Forty.” Meanwhile, a frustrated
Max (Cheyenne Jackson) tries to figure out why he constantly strikes out with women. Swoosie Kurtz, Leslie Jordan and Kyla Pratt also star; Rosie Abdoo, Daisha Graf and Tom Plumley guest star.
9:31 PM _ Pivoting As she begins to dip her toes back into the dating pool, Sarah (Maggie Q) enlists the help of Amy and Jodie (Eliza Coupe, Ginnifer Goodwin) to vet a woman she ran across on a dating app in the new episode “Hell on Wheels.” Meanwhile,
Amy’s maternal instincts are triggered when she discovers Luke (Marcello Reyes) isn’t living with any other kids, and Matt (JT Neal) turns to Jodie for some business advice. Tommy Dewey also stars; Connie Jackson and Colton Dunn guest star.
10 PM (TRU) Fast Foodies “Top Chef” winners Kristen Kish and Jeremy Ford, plus “Iron Chef” champ Justin Sutherland, show off their gifts for both creativity and culinary mimicry in Season 2 of this fun cooking competition series, in which they welcome celebrity guests who reveal their favorite fastfood dish. The chefs then compete to see which of them can perfectly recreate that dish, then skillfully reimagine it. Comic Nikki Glaser is the guest in tonight’s season premiere; other stars visiting this season include Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Chris Jericho (“AEW”), Bobby Moynihan and Natasha Leggero.
10 PM (FREE) grown-ish Season 4 resumes in the winter premiere “It
Was Good Until It Wasn’t,” which finds the gang collectively struggling to deal with fallout from the explosive events at the luau. Among them, Aaron (Trevor Jackson) knows he’ll be held accountable for his actions at the bash. Elsewhere, Zoey (Yara Shahidi) turns to grandparents Pops and Ruby (Laurence Fishburne, Jenifer Lewis) for advice, while Ana and Vivek (Francia Raisa, Jordan Buhat) try to keep their hook-up a secret. Chloe Bailey and Emily Arlook also are featured.
10:02 PM (A&E) Taking the Stand A new episode revisits the trial of Sean Foley, who fatally shot Jimmy Shelton, his girlfriend’s stepfather, on the latter’s back porch at the end of a boozy evening. Foley claims the older man was aggressively trying to assault Foley’s girlfriend. With his fate hanging in the balance, Foley decides to take the stand and try to persuade the jury to believe his version of that night: that the shooting incident was a case of self-defense, not cold-blooded murder. Another new episode immediately follows.
10:30 PM (FREE) Single Drunk Female Sam (Sofia Black-D’Elia) hatches a plan to score points with Brit (Sasha
Compere) by offering amends at her birthday in the new episode “I’m Sorry, But ... .” Unfortunately, Sam isn’t invited to that gathering and, worse, neglects Felicia (Lily Mae Harrington). Meanwhile, when Sam’s probation officer unexpectedly pays a visit, flustered mom Carol (Ally Sheedy) struggles to explain her daughter’s “situation” to her friends.
