BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

Fox, 8:00 p.m. ET

SEASON FINALE: Tonight is the Season 4 finale for this prequel series, setting the stage for the Batman universe in Gotham City. So even though there’s one more episode, and season, to go, things have gotten closer to revealing the true nature of both the villains and the heroes in this show. And tonight, two of them come face to face (but not with Two-Face; he’s not one of the villains expected in this episode), as Jim Gordon, played by Ben McKenzie, confronts Jeremiah, played by Cameron Monaghan. Jeremiah, in recent weeks, has inherited his late twin brother Jerome’s mantle as the future Joker. No, I’m not Joking. That job’s taken – twice.


 
  
 
 

ABC, 8:00 p.m. ET

SEASON FINALE: There are a couple of very tenured series offering season finales tonight. I used to watch both, but for years now, I’ve only occasionally checked in on either. This is one of them: the Season 14 finale of Grey’s Anatomy.

 
  
 
 

CW, 8:00 p.m. ET

SEASON FINALE: There are a couple of very tenured series offering season finales tonight. I used to watch both, but for years now, I’ve only occasionally checked in on either. This is one of them: the Season 13 finale of Supernatural.


 
  
 
 

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

Thursday nights in May, on TCM this month, belong to Marlene Dietrich, and tonight is an evening of some of her lesser earlier films, with one significant exception: At 10 p.m. ET, TCM presents 1935’s The Devil Is a Woman, directed by Josef von Sternberg, who always captured Dietrich at her most luminous and mysterious.
