Autism: The Sequel (9 p.m., HBO) - This documentary revisits the five young adults who were originally featured in HBO’s 2007 documentary “Autism: The Musical,” which followed these subjects as children as they wrote and performed in their own musical. Now we find out what they are up to in their early 20s, as they navigate the challenges and triumphs for adults on the autism spectrum.
Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel (10 p.m., HBO) - The show returns tonight with a roundtable discussion on the impact of COVID-19 on sports, featuring Bryant Gumbel, Jim Nantz, Joe Buck and Mike Breen. There are also segments on the role of sports leagues during the pandemic, both positive and negative. On the positive side, there’s a report on a company that normally makes lacrosse helmets now manufacturing protective gear for health workers. This series marked its 25th anniversary earlier this month.
