What's On Tonight (Wednesday): Ripple effect

Ripple

Oh what fun it is to ride! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, December 3!

Our Top Pick tonight is Ripple (Netflix, 3 a.m.). This new show has little press material available and the trailer only hit the internet in recent hours. The Lionsgate drama discovers the interconnectedness amongst four people in the Big Apple, all of various ages and backgrounds but share part of their lives together. Seems little sappy, but I kind of appreciate the lack of star names.

Elsewhere, Michelle Pfeiffer is not having FunAbbott needs a new club, Alexandra Breckenridge has a Secret, Reba is live from Rockefeller Center, Toronto has a final murder, Shifting Gears is expired, and HGTV gets Cheap.

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