Tonight is the series premiere of Son of Zorn on FOX at 8/7c. From executive producers Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (The LEGO Movie, 21 Jump Street), and featuring the voice of Jason Sudeikis (The Last Man on Earth, Horrible Bosses, We’re the Millers), this is a new hybrid live-action/animated comedy about a warrior from a faraway island in the Pacific Ocean — where everything and everyone is animated — who returns to Orange County, CA, to win back his live-action ex-wife and teenage son. The show also stars Cheryl Hines, Johnny Pemberton, Tim Meadows, & Artemis Pebdani.
 
Tonight is also the series premiere of Rob & Chyna on E! at 9/8c. Less than a year into their relationship, Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna have fallen hard for each other, become engaged and announced they’re expecting a baby. Now, as the couple continue to open up to each other, they’re also sharing all of their relationship with viewers. Throughout the series, Rob continues on his journey back to good health and finds it hard to stay focused while Chyna indulges in pregnancy cravings. Scott Disick and Kourtney Kardashian become shoulders to lean on for Rob, encouraging him and offering words of wisdom to the father-to-be. Kourtney Kardashian hangs with the couple at Khloe’s birthday party and Chyna makes the trip to San Diego to celebrate Kardashian/Jenner grandma MJ’s birthday.
 
Finally, tonight is the series premiere of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? on TLC at 10/9c. This series revisits the most memorable couples from previous seasons of 90 Day Fiance. The frenzied countdown to the altar may be behind them, but the real drama has just begun to unfold. Returning couples will include Danielle and Mohamed, who faced critics at home and on social media; Melanie and Devar, who encountered doubts within her family and throughout her community; Loren and Alexei, whose young love is fiery but continues to encounter challenges; Kyle and Noon, who are looking to see if their journey will take them away from his beloved New Orleans; Russ and Paola, who fear their lives are going in different directions; and Brett and Daya, as she discovers that his family issues run deeper than she’d thought, all while they struggle with getting pregnant.

Tonight is the series premiere of Deadliest Catch: Dungeon Cove on Discovery Channel at 9/8c. This new series explores the lives of fishing families and the sacrifices they make to survive. Newport, Oregon, is one of the last remaining fishing towns along the edge of the notoriously violent “Graveyard of the Pacific” that stretches from Oregon to British Columbia. Here, generations of Dungeness crab fishermen and their families sacrifice everything that they have, including life itself, to carve an existence from the sea.
 
Tonight is also the series premiere of Taking Fire on Discovery Channel at 10/9c. This is a five-part series bringing viewers into the hearts and minds of American soldiers, a captivating experience like nothing ever seen on film. It’s the story of a band of brothers deployed to defend one of the United States’ farthest flung outposts at the gateway to one of the deadliest places on earth: the mouth of the Taliban-held Korengal Valley in Northeast Afghanistan. Told by the men who fought on the frontlines themselves and illustrated with real combat footage shot on helmet cameras and handy cams, this never-before-seen material takes viewers along for a visceral experience not witnessed in news reports or traditional documentary portrayals of war. Taking Fire will showcase the renowned and highly regarded 101st Airborne Division, charting one year’s deployment on one base in Afghanistan. It is not simply a series of war stories, but a character-driven serial, showing the impact of war on a handful of men during the course of their year on the frontlines.

Tonight is the complete first season premiere of Fleabag on Amazon at 3:01AM/2:01AMc. This is a hilarious and poignant window into the mind of a dry-witted, sexual, angry, grief-riddled woman, as she hurls herself at modern living in London. Award-winning playwright Phoebe Waller-Bridge writes and stars as Fleabag, an unfiltered woman trying to heal, while rejecting anyone who tries to help her and keeping up her bravado all along. Unfettered, unfiltered, and based on the play that won Fringe First Award at Edinburgh, Fleabag is the thoroughly disarming confessional of a woman so totally detached, she’s utterly lost. It also stars Brett Gelman, Bill Paterson, Hugh Dennis, Hugh Skinner, Jamie Demetriou, Jenny Rainsford, Olivia Colman, & Sian Clifford.
