What's On Tonight (Wednesday): Murder on the trivia Floor

The Floor

The Tribe speaks! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, December 18!

Our Top Pick tonight is the season finale of The Floor (Fox / Hulu, Thursday). The game show where lots of people start on a floor and then go head-to-head to win more space on The Floor. It's a decent game show that I haven't really watched because I often forget it exists — despite me listing it here weekly all season.

Elsewhere, Nova analyzes Notre Dame's dead, we have a new Survivor, the final Singers are unMaskedDylan is still Young, a Sista is attacked, PBS updates us on Earthshot, Animals have Secrets, and Ultimatum reaches an ultimatum.

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