A high-profile sci-fi series begins, and a comfy favorite ends

Stop browsing, start watching! The best TV shows and movies to watch on every screen sZtJTddqN:m:1:2364960064:1D323F3B70920EB638AB0CA2DE9278A4:r Hi! Channel flipping while half-watching television last night, I came across a new episode of History Channel’s The Food That Built America, a show whose title I knew but actual contents were a mystery. I expected it to be just talking heads yapping about snacks, but I was delighted to see that dramatic reenactments were also included. In this episode about potato chips, actors padding their IMDb pages played several important roles in the cutthroat years of potato-snack expansion (the 1950s), including that of bloodthirsty businessman Herman Lay and a chemist whose “Eureka!” moment involved him pulverizing potatoes into a paste and creating Pringles, right down to the revolutionary cylinder packaging. It was like watching Mad Men on a late-night cable access network program, except instead of selling cigarettes and being mildly racist and sexist, it was dudes in slick hair talking about Fritos. I’m not saying it was great television, but I laughed a lot. Here are this week’s television picks. -Tim [Your Watch This Now! newsletter is created by Senior Recommendations and Reviews Editor Tim Surette and more show-obsessed editors at TV Guide!](sZtJTddqN:m:1:2364960064:1D323F3B70920EB638AB0CA2DE9278A4:r) sZtJTddqN:m:1:2364960064:1D323F3B70920EB638AB0CA2DE9278A4:r SEASON 17 PREMIERE MONDAY AT 8/7C on ABC [This Bachelorette might be worth a watch](sZtJTddqN:m:1:2364960064:1D323F3B70920EB638AB0CA2DE9278A4:r) Not only is ABC's reality series back after some delays due to the coronavirus pandemic, it's coming back with TWO seasons this year, the first of which follows 30-year-old Katie Thurston as she selects a partner for "life" (or at least a partner for social media sponcon) from a buffet of single men looking for love and/or attention. The sex-positive TikTok star should provide plenty of juicy moments as she tries out her options; a preview of the season didn't hold back on her forwardness. Good for her! The season was filmed at a resort in New Mexico because of COVID restrictions, and long-time host Chris Harrison is out after insensitive comments. He's been replaced by former Bachelorettes Tayshia Adams and Kaitlyn Bristowe as the Bachelor machine continues to recycle itself. sZtJTddqN:m:1:2364960064:1D323F3B70920EB638AB0CA2DE9278A4:r SERIES PREMIERE WEDNESDAY ON DISNEY+ [Disney’s latest high-profile Marvel series is actually Loki](sZtJTddqN:m:1:2364960064:1D323F3B70920EB638AB0CA2DE9278A4:r) Tom Hiddleston's god of mischief is back, and free from that pesky conscience, in Marvel's latest Disney+ series (which is now debuting two days earlier than expected, because those rascals at Marvel like to keep us on our toes). This one is a crime thriller that follows the alternate version of Loki who stole the Tesseract in Avengers: Endgame, an event that basically broke reality. Now he has to fix it. He's recruited by Owen Wilson's Mobius M. Mobius at the mysterious Time Variance Authority (TVA) to travel through history and correct the timeline he messed up. Forgive me for the blasphemy of comparing a Marvel series to a DC one, but it kinda sounds like Loki's Legends of Tomorrow. -Kelly Connolly sZtJTddqN:m:1:2364960064:1D323F3B70920EB638AB0CA2DE9278A4:r SERIES FINALE THURSDAY ON HULU, PARAMOUNT+ [Younger isn’t getting any younger](sZtJTddqN:m:1:2364960064:1D323F3B70920EB638AB0CA2DE9278A4:r) The millennials and fake millennial of Younger are all grown up. After a seventh and final season that has certainly made some choices, the drama signs off on Thursday (at least on streaming — it will still air on its original home, TV Land, eventually) with a finale that should resolve the love triangle of our time. Will Liza (Sutton Foster) stick with Charles (Peter Hermann) or wind up with Josh (Nico Tortorella) in a twist? Maybe she'll pull a Buffy and embrace the single life. Anything goes! (That's a Broadway reference for all you Sutton Foster-heads out there.) -Kelly Connolly sZtJTddqN:m:1:2364960064:1D323F3B70920EB638AB0CA2DE9278A4:r sZtJTddqN:m:1:2364960064:1D323F3B70920EB638AB0CA2DE9278A4:r sZtJTddqN:m:1:2364960064:1D323F3B70920EB638AB0CA2DE9278A4:r sZtJTddqN:m:1:2364960064:1D323F3B70920EB638AB0CA2DE9278A4:r HAVE YOU SEEN THIS?
