We’re getting closer and closer to fall TV time! In the meantime, the week of August 19 is a bit thin on the programming. Most network TV is avoiding primetime clashes with the news-y programming of the week. Streaming, however, has a few gems to check out! There’s the series finale of Evil, the return of Pachinko, and more! Here’s what we’re watching the week of August 19.
