The Good Place ascends to television heaven with its series finale. Plus, the season finale of our favorite broadcast procedural, a documentary about a notorious quarterback, and a new Netflix thriller.
Hello!
This week contains three big series finales. Superhero trendsetter [Arrow]( ended on Tuesday after eight seasons, existential comedy [The Good Place]( ends tonight after four, and animated sadcom [BoJack Horseman]( will release its final run of episodes on Netflix tomorrow. Those are just three out of dozens of [shows ending in 2020]( with more to be announced, surely. We rounded them all up so you’re not caught off guard when you reach the end of Blindspot episodes to binge. But for every show that’s ending, two more are starting. Netflix alone has [all these shows](. There are even a few new shows we're [looking forward to]( grumpy as we are. Here are tonight’s TV picks. -[Liam Mathews](

We’re going to miss this show, but we can’t wait to see what creator Michael Schur does next – starting with the [HBO Max comedy]( from some Broad City writers he’ll be executive-producing.

Let’s get demonic
[Evil can evil](
Season 1 finale Thursday at 10/9c on CBS
Evil ends its terrific first season with a game-changing episode that brings an investigation very close to home for Kristen (Katja Herbers), as David (Mike Colter) suspects that an IVF facility that Kristen used is connected to the larger demonic conspiracy. It could have ties to a lot of cases we saw earlier in the season, too. And of course there’s a twist at the end of the episode that will have you making a deal with the Devil to make Season 2 get here sooner.
Controversy still dogs him
[30 for 30: Vick looks at one of sports’ most notorious men](
Thursday at 9/8c on ESPN
There are lots of people who will never consider Michael Vick fully human. This 30 for 30 is not for them. But for football fans who can appreciate nuance, this two-part documentary about controversial retired quarterback Michael Vick – who served almost two years in federal prison on charges related to running a brutal dogfighting ring – takes a look at his rise, fall, and return to the NFL. Vick’s story raises uncomfortable questions about race and redemption in American society, and this doc from acclaimed black history documentarian Stanley Nelson will interrogate the complexities of Vick’s story. Part 2 will air next week.
Did you ever let your lover see the stranger in yourself?
[The Stranger, No Billy Joel](
Now on Netflix
It takes a certain amount of chutzpah to call a new work “The Stranger,” considering how many things are already called “[The Stranger]( But this Netflix show doesn’t give a F. It’s a claustrophobic psychological thriller about a man whose life gets turned upside down by the titular stranger – a strikingly gorgeous woman who wears a baseball cap so no one notices her, like Clark Kent wearing glasses – when she comes to him with a secret about his wife. It’s based on a novel by extremely popular writer Harlan Coben, and is the second adaptation of one of his books by British screenwriter Danny Brocklehurst for Netflix, after the Michael C. Hall-starring curiosity [Safe](.
