New show Pulling with My Parents does exactly what its title suggests, Dublin Murders arrives at the Beeb, and it's the season two finale of the superb Succession . . .
Pick of the Day
Pulling with My Parents, 9.30pm, RTÉ 2
Here's a new six-parter that does exactly what its title suggests: young singletons getting their parents to give their dating profiles a full make-over to crack their cupid conundrum.
Make you wonder how anyone so smart could be single, eh?
First up for this frankly bizarre social experiment are Sophie La Touche and Jason O'Byrne.
28-year-old Sophie always had her heart set on meeting an exotic prince with deep pockets. She drafts in her mother Andrea, and Nan, Mary, to help her find that special someone.
Jason (30) is keen to find someone to settle down with but he's sick of the dating scene. While he’s generally outgoing and confident, he relies on dating apps to meet girls. Now he’s handing control over to his parents, Anne and Pat.

Dublin Murders, 9.00pm, BBC One

It's a crime drama starring Killian Scott, Sarah Greene and Tom Vaughan-Lawlor, and based on the Dublin Murder Squad series by crime novelist Tana French.
Set during the height of the Celtic Tiger, the series will focus on two murder investigations led by ambitious and charismatic detectives Rob Reilly and Cassie Maddox.

Don't Miss
Succession, 9.00pm, Sky Atlantic & NOW TV
After last week's superb episode, where the Roy family were facing into the nightmare scenario of a imploding empire, I can't wait to see how season two of this teak-black dramedy concludes.
Will sociopathic patriarch Logan Roy (played with great fury by Brian Cox) sacrifice his son Kendall (the hugely impressive Jeremy Strong) in order to keep his hideous Waystar-Royco dynasty in business?
Of course he would - but don't be surprised if a more palatable sacrifice rears its head, given that a third season of Succession has been green-lit.
