TV Lists What's On Tonight

Here’s what’s happening in the world of television for Monday, February 11. All times are Eastern.

Top pick

I Am The Night (TNT, 9 p.m.): The second “enjoyably odd” episode of TNT’s I Am The Night saw things get even worse for Chris Pine’s down-on-his-luck Jay Singletary—really saying something for a dude to whom we’re introduced as he’s chased off a beach by a sobbing, pleading woman and straight into a vat of nuclear-strength self-loathing. But as you might guess, Singletary’s troubles are far from over, and in “Dark Flower,” he has another run-in with bought-and-paid-for government suit Billis (Russian Doll’s Yul Vazquez).

Regular coverage

Arrow (The CW, 8 p.m.)

Wild card

Scotty And The Secret History Of Hollywood (Starz, 9 p.m.): What the hell, let’s make it an evening of behind-closed-doors Los Angeles history. This documentary centers on Scotty Bowers, “a handsome ex-Marine who landed in Hollywood after World War II and became confidante, aide-de-camp and lover to many of Hollywood’s greatest male—and female—stars.”

There’s certainly a salacious aspect to this story, but filmmaker Matt Tyrnauer approaches the subject with compassion and a readiness to embrace contradiction.
