What's On Tonight (Sunday): A bite out of East New York crime

East New York

Happy Mother's Day! Here's what's on television for tonight, Sunday, May 14!

Our Top Pick tonight is the finale of the freshman drama East New York (CBS, 9 p.m.). This procedural cop show about an East New York precinct led by new-to-leadership Deputy Inspector Amanda Warren, who has a different approach to reducing crime, wasn't that good. However, it did feature two of my favs: Richard Kind and Jimmy Smits. That's not nothing.

ElsewhereSuccession watches an election, Tom Jones masquerades, The Simpsons goes to clown school, fate of this Fatal Attraction is set, The Great North goes to prom, the full Aftermath of Waco is unveiled, HouseBroken is determined to still exist, and the Elizabeth Taylor is a SuperstarRoyals got to CrackerCon.

(All times are Eastern. All listings are new unless otherwise stated. For more listings, visit The Futon Critic or Zap2it.)
