ALL AMERICAN 8 p.m. on The CW. Based loosely on the lifetime of the NFL linebacker Spencer Paysinger (who acts as a consulting producer), this show is back is for a fifth season. Within the spring, we saw Spencer (Daniel Ezra) and the remainder of his group graduate highschool and begin making steps toward their future. Though it isn’t even Halloween yet, this episode will catapult us into the vacation mood — Spencer, JJ (Hunter Clowdus) and Asher (Cody Christian) throw a Christmas party attempt to impress a woman.
AVENUE 5 10 p.m. on HBO. The 12 months is 2060, ocean cruises are out and space cruises are in — that’s the premise of this show, entering its second season and starring Hugh Laurie, Josh Gad and Zach Woods. “Despite the scabrous behavior of the crew and the (largely caricatured and dull) consternation of the passengers, there’s an incipient earnestness to ‘Avenue 5,’” Mike Hale wrote in his review for The Recent York Times. “It feels as if we may begin to see unexpected grace and resourcefulness and pluck, somewhat than unrelieved cynicism and self-dealing.”
MY TRUE CRIME STORY 11 p.m. on VH1. Each episode of this docu-series, narrated by the rapper Remy Ma, people reveal their involvement in theft, drug dealing, sex work and the way they moved past these episodes and located success of their respective fields. The series also touches on how inequalities within the criminal justice system (including mandatory surcharges) can trap people.
Tuesday
THE WINCHESTERS 8 p.m. on The CW. After 15 seasons of “Supernatural,” fans know Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles) pretty much — but do they know anything about his family? Skipping between the current and the past, this latest spinoff series follows the story of how Dean’s parents, John Winchester (played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan in the unique series and by Drake Rodger here) and Mary Campbell (played by Samantha Smith in the unique series and Meg Donnelly here) met.
Wednesday

LOVE AT FIRST LIE 9:30 p.m. on MTV. The landscape for reality competition dating shows is already pretty jammed packed: We’ve got “Are You the One?,” “Love Island” and “Too Hot to Handle,” to call a number of. MTV is jumping in with one other — about uncovering who’s in an actual relationship and who’s faking it. Every time a liar known as out during a “truth ceremony,” $25,000 is added to the money prize.
