What's on your HDTV: 'The Strain', Shark Week, Hannibal Burress

Shark Week is in full swing on Discovery, as the network tries to find even more shark-related programming it somehow hasn't covered yet. (The answer, apparently, is to just make stuff up -- we won't be fooled again by Alien Sharks and Ninja Sharks.) Still, Sunday night is packed, with the return of Ray Donavan, Masters of Sex and The Strain. Comedy Central has more Key & Peele, plus the debut of Hannibal Burress' new show Why? On streaming Netflix is bringing a new Chris Tucker comedy special, and will also post Monsters: Dark Continent this week. It's a sequel to the movie Monsters, which if you saw it, you probably also saw on Netflix streaming. In gaming, Rocket League is coming to PC, and on PS4 as a PlayStation Plus game. Look after the break to check out each day's highlights, including trailers and let us know what you think (or what we missed).
