EVERY WEEKDAY lunchtime, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the TV shows that you’ll be tweeting about tonight and talking about tomorrow.
True Detective (Sky Atlantic, 1.35am)
If you missed this genre-defining show on its first broadcast earlier this year, a repeat of the entire series begins tonight on Sky Atlantic. Yes, we KNOW it’s late and it’s a school night. But the wonderful double-act of Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson awaits. Unmissable. #truedetective
Way to Go: Death and the Irish (RTÉ One, 9.35pm)
Documentary featuring Irish people discussing that always-taboo subject: death. The show is fronted by Norah Casey, who lost her husband in 2011. It promises to be both insightful and moving. #waytogo
Natural Born Killers (ITV4, 10pm)
Woody Harrelson makes his second appearance in tonight’s picks, for his unforgettably lunatic performance as a serial killer alongside Juliette Lewis. Classic Oliver Stone thriller released – along with Pulp Fiction – 20 years ago this year.
Everybody’s talking about: #CommunityLivesOn
Cult comedy Community was cancelled by NBC earlier this year after five seasons as a fan favourite. But after several months of will-they-won’t-they resurrection talks with Netflix, Hulu and the like, the show has now been officially rescued by none other than Yahoo – who are hoping that it will breathe some life into their own online TV-streaming service.

Or switch over for…
- Can’t Pay? We’ll Take It Away! Final Demand (TV3, 9pm) Final episode of this documentary about the world of debt collection
- World Cup: Argentina vs Switzerland (5pm) and Belgium vs USA (9pm)
- First Dates (E4, 10pm) Repeat of the show where actual, real people let themselves be filmed on actual, real dates. The horror.
- Shopgirls (BBC2, 9pm) Did you work in Claire’s Accessories as a teenager? Then you have these early-20th-century retail workers to thank. Great-looking BBC documentary.
