1) “Keyshia Cole: This Is My Life,” 8 p.m. and midnight, Lifetime. Cole’s first six albums were in the top-10, two of them reaching No. 2. More difficult was re-connecting with her mother (who, struggling with addiction, let friends adopt her at 2) and sisters and finding her dad. Cole (shown here) plays herself, with Debbi Morgan as her mom. That follows reruns of two well-acted Mary J. Blige productions, “Real Love” and “Strength of a Woman,” at 4 and 6 p.m. Read more…

1) “Will Trent,” 8 p.m., ABC. Fridays have become the best night for drama reruns. There are the CBS ones, now joined by this sharp show. Will (Ramon Rodriguez,shown here) is a Georgia Bureau of Investigation detective, short on people skills. He’s hated by most cops, secretly loved by one (Erika Christensen). In this strong second half of the series-opener, a kidnapped teen is the daughter of an enemy/friend (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) from their days in juvenile hall. Read more…

1) NBA draft, 8 p.m. ET, ABC and ESPN. The football draft ia a ratings hit, so basketball gets its primetime moment. ABC will have the first round, with San Antonio choosing first and expected to take the 7-foot-4 Victor Wembanyama (shown here, blocking a shot despite resistance); ESPN has both rounds. That’s part of this week’s sports surge, which also has football: The USFL semi-finals are 8 p.m ET Saturday on NBC and 7 p.m. ET Sunday on Fox. Read more…

1) “LA Fire & Rescue” debut, 8 p.m., NBC, Los Angeles County sprawls across several worlds, from a desert to an ocean. One firehouse is in tough Compton; at another, there’s talk of Kardashians or a Schwarzenegger. Now this fairly entertaining, non-fiction show bounces between seven stations. We get personal stories – this week, a cancer survivor – plus action. (The Los Angeles scene show here is not from the show.) Most of it is medical, but the opener closes with a giant blaze that continues next week. Read more…

1) “Superman & Lois,” 8 p.m., CW. We’re one week away from the season-finale … but not, it turns out, the series-finale. Under new ownership, the CW has been dumping its superhero shows, but recently reversed itself on this one: There will be 10 episodes next season. Tonight, Lex Luthor (Michael Cudlitz, shown here, of “Walking Dead”) emerges from prison; next week, he makes his move. Read more…

1) “Juneteenth: A Global Celebration for Freedom,” 8-11 p.m. ET, CNN and OWN. Juneteenth has been around for 157 years, celebrating the final, post-war freeing of slaves. But this is only its third year as a national holiday and it keeps growing. Now it gets a mega-concet, including a Tina Turner tribute from Chloe Bailey. Also performing: Kirk Franklin (shown here), Nelly, Jodeci, Miguel, Charlie Wilson, SWV, Davido, Coi Leray and Mike Phillips. Read more…

1) “Endeavour” season-opener, 9-11 p.m., PBS. It’s been a long run – eight seasons of “Inspector Morse” … nine of the “Inspector Lewis” sequel … and now the ninth and final one of this prequel (shown here). Like Ridley (see next paragraph), Endeavour Morse (left) is somber; his one romance (with his colleague’s daughter) crumbled and he’s back from alcohol rehab. But unlike Ridley, his movie-length stories air in one night. This first one, involving a famous orchestra, is excellent. Read more…
