| The Beauty |
Do you like movies about gladiators? Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, March 4!
Our Top Pick tonight is season finale of The Beauty (FX & Hulu, 9 p.m.).

Ya know, I kinda like it. I'm not caught up on it, but I kinda like the premise, which is at least Substance adjacent. And Ryan Murphy can definitely assembled a solid cast, including Isabella Rossellini, Rebecca Hall, Vincent D'Onofrio, John Carroll Lynch, etc., plus some of his regulars.
Elsewhere, One Chicago takes to the skies, Dr. Phil was Dirty and Rotten, Hijack is freed, Spirits assemble, Padma Lakshmi begins a new Cup, reviews are in on Scrubs, Sherlock Holmes gets a TV show backstory, Abbott calls for aide,
