| CSI: Vegas |
Who are you! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, December 8!
Tonight's Top Pick is the finale of the CSI: Crime Scene Investigation revival titled CSI: Vegas (CBS, 10 p.m.). While the original was an early ratings powerhouse, this revival "limited series" has proven soft. It's a mix of old (Jorja Fox, William Petersen, Paul Guilfoyle) and new (Paula Newsome, Matt Lauria, Mandeep Dhillon, Mel Rodriguez) with an ongoing story about clearing OG-er David Hodges from wrongdoing that could otherwise compromise the crime lab's history. I bailed after two episodes. At least the theme song is the same.
Elsewhere, One Chicago celebrates the holidays, James Corden celebrates 1,000 Late Late shows, the Teen Titans life a regular life, Mariana Van Zeller investigates online romances, Dee dreams of acting in Sunny California, and CMT welcomes the holiday season with a night of songs.
(All times are Eastern. All listings are new unless otherwise stated. For more listings, visit The Futon Critic or Zap2it.)
STREAMING & EARLY PRIMETIME
🎥 FC Bayern: Behind the Legend (Amazon, midnight): "Experts look at the history of the Bayern Munich football club, including behind-the-scene footage and interviews with former players and coaching staff."
Hawkeye (Disney+, 3 a.m.): We are past the halfway point with this episode. Hopefully, this is the episode where we get Yelena. We've also got easter eggs to another part of a quasi-MCU. I don't like the dumb streaming-ready cliffhangers.✔️
💲 Jeopardy! (Syndicated, check local listings): Professors ask the question. I'd ask them how much research they have to do and what student ideas they've stolen and claimed as their own.
🍽️ Occasional Cooks (What's On Tonight & Pop Culture, 7 p.m.): What have you been making in your kitchen lately? Want some inspiration? Check out our weekly food thread!

🎥🎄 Christmas with a Crown (Lifetime, 8 p.m.): When a successful woman returns to her hometown to revive her family's Christmas festival, she meets a dashing stranger who's on a quest to find the holidays' true spirit. I think he's royalty of some obscure monarchy because during the holidays, monarchies are good! Yay monarchies!
📺🎄 Olaf's Frozen Adventure (ABC, 8 p.m.): "When the kingdom of Arendelle empties out for the holiday season, Anna and Elsa realize that they have no family traditions of their own. So Olaf sets out on a merry mission to bring home the very best traditions and save Christmas." This isn't that good.
📺🎄 Toy Story That Time Forgot (ABC, 8:30 p.m.): "While at a post-Christmas play date, the gang finds itself in uncharted territory after some cool new action figures turn out to be delusional, leaving it up to Trixie to save the day." This is pretty good.✔️
