American Housewife |
The Battle of the Century!!! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, March 31!
Tonight's Top Pick is the season — and maybe series — finale of ABC's American Housewife, a show I once adored but has had a rough season. The story of the Otto family moving into an uppity rich society was a delight, but this season, with the cast and crew changes after backstage turmoil and added friends/significant others to the Otto household and hasn't been all that pleasant. The spark has diminished. But I'll still watch it because the family has great chemistry.
Elsewhere, Back is back, the Resident Alien faces its humanity, David Attenborough examines extinction possibilities, climate change causes Hell to freeze, suspicious fires take over the fire station, Becky Conner meets an old friend, The Goldbergs deal with an NFL strike, and Monsterverse has a battle for the ages.
