Another week has come to an end. One that was full of repeats, but we still had a few new things worth watching. Need a little help finding the good stuff on the tube each night; we try to help with Tonight on the Tube. Each day you will find picks and suggestions for the best TV shows on each night and other special happenings. Also, get news and updates regarding shows and TV marathons on that night.
