What's On Tonight (Wednesday): To intervene or not to intervene

What Would You Do?

He coulda won a Grammy, buried in his jammies! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, February 12!

Our Top Pick tonight is What Would You Do? (ABC, 10 p.m. / Hulu, Thursday). A news division series that does hidden camera segments on the unsuspecting public sounds odd, and it is. This social experiment format often has actors being terrible or underserved people and watches if peasants like us will intervene to do the right thing. Those bystanders are later interviewed. The hidden camera stuff on race, like the one in the GIF? Nope. I've observed and lived stuff like this. I'm not gonna watch a hidden pretend one. The show stresses me out / makes me very uncomfortable. Yet it has endured for 18 seasons and more than 150 episodes.

Elsewhere, Abbott preps the budget, The Simpsons goes straight to Disney+, Harlem gets on the Ice, Wild Cards goes West, Mythic Quest goes to a murder mystery party, Robin Thede answers in the form of a question, and The Masked Singer is still a thing.
