Tonight is the series premiere of Todrick on MTV at 10/9c. In his new weekly MTV docu-series, quadruple-threat Todrick Hall lets fans into his creative factory and introduces them to the passionate troupe of creative collaborators who pour heart and soul into his weekly videos.
 
Tonight is also the series premiere of Girl Code Live on MTV at 10:30/9:30c. This is a weekly half-hour late night talk show hosted by three hilarious ladies from “Girl Code” – Nessa, Carly and Awkwafina. The series will feature celebrity guests, musical artists, fun games and candid girl-talk in front of a live studio audience.
 
Finally, tonight is the series premiere of Big Kitchens on FYI at 10/9c, followed by a 2nd new episode at 10:30/9:30c. The show explores the mind-boggling logistics, colossal cuisine and extraordinary characters behind the world’s biggest, most extreme kitchens and restaurants. Each episode visits a different restaurant to reveal its secret workings – from the world’s biggest truck stop to the US Army’s largest dining area…from a jumbo jet catering facility, to the biggest kitchen cruising on the open ocean. We visit these monster kitchens on one of the busiest days in their calendar when they cook their biggest banquets. We find out what makes each kitchen tick – the larger than life characters – the cooks and chefs; the bespoke technology behind the cooking; the dazzling logistics involved in seating so many people; the overwhelming volume of ingredients, and the power needed to cook it all. We discover the secrets behind their finest dishes and uncover the facts and stats that keep each extreme restaurant running.

Tonight is…sort of the series premiere of Hand of God on Amazon at 12:01AM/11:01PMc. Episode 1 went up on Amazon at the end of August 2014. The show stars Golden Globe winner Ron Perlman in his first lead television role since Sons of Anarchy as the honorable justice Pernell Harris. The show centers on Judge Harris, a hard-living, law-bending married man with a high-end call girl on the side, who suffers a mental breakdown and goes on a vigilante quest to find the rapist who tore his family apart. With no real evidence to go on, Pernell begins to rely on “visions” and “messages” he believes are being sent by God through Pernell’s ventilator-bound son. Hand of God also stars Dana Delany as the Judge’s protective wife Crystal Harris; Garret Dillahunt as KD, the born-again sociopath whose violent tendencies are exploited by Pernell; Andre Royo as the slick, smart, gregarious, and greedy mayor Robert “Bobo” Boston; Alona Tal as Pernell’s grieving daughter-in-law Jocelyn Harris; Julian Morris as the questionable preacher Paul Curtis; Elizabeth McLaughlin as the preacher’s sultry girlfriend Alicia; and Emayatzy Corinealdi as Pernell’s call girl and confidante Tessie.
