The RNC faces off against Comic-Con

Here’s what’s up in the world of TV for Thursday, July 21. All times are Eastern.
Top picks
Steven Universe (Cartoon Network, 7 p.m.): Steven Universe continues its run of brand new episodes with “The New Lars.” After inadvertently revealing he’s a huge Ladie (Sars?) shipper, Steven takes an analytical look at Lars’ life. Eric Thurm is more than down for a Big Donut romance between Lars and Sadie so long as Lars gets his act together when it comes to, you know, not being a dick.
Republican National Convention (PBS, 8 p.m.; ABC, CBS, NBC, 10 p.m.): It’s the fourth and final night of the Republican National Convention. Both Ivanka Trump and The Donald himself are slated to speak and the evening is centered around the theme “Make America One Again.” (One what has yet to be determined.) PBS kicks off the coverage at 8 p.m. while ABC, CBS, and NBC join in at 10 p.m. Considering Trump’s over-the-top entrance on the first night of the convention, there’s no telling how he’ll kick off his speech tonight. Perhaps he’ll ride in on the bubble from Wicked.
Live From Comic-Con (Syfy, 8 p.m.): While the RNC is wrapping up, Comic-Con is just beginning. For the first time ever, Syfy is recapping the nerdy weekend-long convention with nightly live telecasts from San Diego. The show is hosted by—of all people—Will Arnett, and it will feature “breaking news, insider party coverage, exclusive content and sneak peeks of the most anticipated films and TV series.” Plus Arnett will interview some of the famous faces in town for the event. The guests for Thursday night’s show include Tony Hale, Alan Tudyk, and the cast of Star Trek Beyond. Perhaps they’ll also enter on the bubble from Wicked.
