It's Time for the Quarterfinals on America's Got Talent

There's a refreshing mix of summer programming on tap tonight involving some very talented performers, a fist full of roses, six comedy sets, some unsolved mysteries, and a trip to the supermarket. Here are our tops picks.   

NEW EPISODE: It's crunch time on America's Got Talent, with the week's performers learning which will move on the to the semi-finals. Plus, viewers get one more chance to send their favorites to the next stage of the competition.

NEW EPISODE: For paradise, there's certainly a lot of drama, and apparently there's plenty more to come. Bachelor in Paradise continues tonight, with Kristina asking for an explanation before she'll talk to Blake. After the rose ceremony, three people are going home. 8:00 PM ET on ABC

SERIES PREMIERE: It's not easy to break into comedy, but with Tiffany Haddish Presents: They Ready, the Girls Trip star is doing her part to help out.
