What to Watch Thursday: Larry Wilmore visits Stephen Colbert

Your daily guide to the most interesting stuff happening on TV and streaming. All times Eastern.

PICK OF THE NIGHT

The Late Show With Stephen Colbert

CBS, 11:35 p.m.

Just two weeks after ending his axed Nightly Show at Comedy Central, Larry Wilmore returns to the late night scene as a guest of Stephen Colbert. They’re old pals, of course (they both served as correspondents on Jon Stewart’s The Daily Show), so expect their conversation to be familiar and frank — especially since Wilmore usually isn’t one to hold back.

CULT TV

Holy Hell

CNN, 9 p.m.

Executive produced by Jared Leto, this documentary centers on the nefarious goings-on within the now-defunct Buddhafield cult, a mysterious Hollywood spiritual community that rose to prominence in the ‘80s. The movie is directed by Will Allen, who himself was a member of the sect for 22 years, so it’ll surely be packed with intriguing details.
