episodes; already renewed for season 4.

D.I. Ray     (season 2 premiere)        (10 pm, PBS)

British police show starring Parminder Nagra [as D.I. Ray] and Ian
Puleston-Davies. Six episodes running through July 21.

Despite the preachiness, I liked this.

Hotel Cocaine         [new]            (10 pm, MGM+)
