BLINDED BY THE LIGHT (2019) 7 p.m. on HBO Signature. “It’s like Bruce knows everything I’ve ever felt,” Javed (Viveik Kalra) says of Bruce Springsteen. It’s a somewhat unlikely match: For one thing, in this musical drama, Javed is living in the suburbs of London, a long way from New Jersey. For another, he’s the 16-year-old son of Pakistani immigrants. These differences between Javed and Springsteen are part of the point of “Blinded by the Light,” a coming-of-age story that’s both very 1980s and very timeless: Javed finds Springsteen, then himself. The film was adapted from a memoir by Sarfraz Manzoor and directed by Gurinder Chadha (“Bend It Like Beckham”), who infuses the story with Bollywood-style musical sequences and Springsteen lyrics that at times physically spring to life onscreen. “I didn’t want to make a jukebox musical,” Chadha said in an interview with The Times last year. “The film is about writing and words.”

HOW TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER 10 p.m. on ABC. After airing part of its sixth and final season late last year, this legal thriller series will return Thursday night for the first of its final episodes. Pieces of how the series will wrap up have been teased: Earlier episodes included flash forwards to a funeral for Annalise (Viola Davis), the law professor at the series’s center. But they also made it unclear whether she actually dies.
