WATCH THIS: SUNDAY

-

“Shark Tank” (9:01 p.m., ABC): In the Season 10 finale, entreprene­urs from Fort Collins, Colo., present their ideas for a fast-food franchise that specialize­s in mealtime guilty pleasures. In other segments, visitors from Lexington, Ky., pitch high-design houses for some nocturnal guests that can help with pest control, and a couple from San Diego push a stylish product that also keeps pets safe from predators. Mark Cuban, Daymond John and Lori Greiner. “The Simpsons” (7 p.m., FOX): Homer’s (voice of Dan Castellane­ta) insurance coverage at work cuts children’s healthcare benefits, forcing Marge (voice of Julie Kavner) to resort to a radical alternativ­e — buying healing crystals — to treat Bart’s (voice of Nancy Cartwright) ADHD. Guest stars Illeana Douglas, Werner Herzog and Jenny Slate also lend their voices.

“Killer Grandma” (7 p.m., 11:01 p.m., Lifetime): As a gesture of support to her husband (Brett Zimmerman), happily married Melissa Ferriday (Kelly Sullivan, “Henry Danger”) invites her mother-in-law, Yvonne (Nana Visitor, “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine”), to come live with them in this 2018 thriller. As the movie title hints, however, Yvonne is more than a little off-kilter. In fact, she is scheming to kidnap Melissa’s young daughter to replace her own little girl who died long ago. Violet Hicks co-stars.

“Our Cartoon President” (7 p.m., 7:30 p.m., 2:30 a.m., Showtime): Jonathan Van Ness from the Netflix reboot of “Queer Eye” makes an animated guest voice appearance as this satirical comedy series from executive producer Stephen Colbert returns for a second season of 10 new episodes. As with Season 1, story lines frequently reflect current or recent events involving the 45th president of the United States, albeit with a comic riff.

“Family Guy” (8 p.m., FOX): It’s been nearly two years since Adam West died, but the beloved star of “Batman” gets one more hail and farewell from this animated sitcom, on which he had a recurring voice role as Quahog mayor Adam West. In the Season 17 finale, Brian (voice of Seth MacFarlane) experience­s such a rush after he successful­ly proposes renaming a local school “Adam West High” that he decides to run as the town’s new mayor.

“Now Apocalypse” (8 p.m., 9:34 p.m., 11:08 p.m., Starz): Uly’s (Avan Jogia) “perfect” relationsh­ip with Isaac (Jacob Artist) disintegra­tes when Isaac finds out about Uly’s obsession with Gabriel (recurring guest star Tyler Posey) in the Season 1 finale “Everything Is Gone Forever.” Meanwhile, Carly (Kelli Berglund) clashes with Jethro (Desmond Chiam) about her camming, which leads to a huge career break for her, and Ford (Beau Mirchoff) wants to know where he and Severine (Roxane Mesquida) stand as she leaves for a business trip.

“Veep” (9:50 p.m., 12:30 a.m., 4:10 a.m., HBO): If Aaron Sorkin’s high-minded “The West Wing” was the perfect political dramedy for turn-of-the-millennium America, this savage, multi-award-winning comedy is far more apt for the swampy current reality of U.S. politics. In its seventh and final season, “Veep” somehow has managed to match the bitter absurdity that prevails in Washington, D.C., while being consistent­ly, profanely hilarious.
