BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

 

NBC, 8:00 p.m. ET

SEASON FINALE: Tonight and tomorrow, The Voice presents its first two-night finale of 2019. Tomorrow night is when the visiting stars will perform,  filling time until the results are revealed – but tonight is the night the four finalists, on live TV, do their best to outshine their rivals. So far as coaches this cycle are concerned, Kelly Clarkson and Adam Levine have no skin in the game – or, at least, no members of their team in the final. Blake Shelton boasts three of four finalists, and only John Legend, with one representative, has the chance to keep Shelton from adding to his total as the judge with the greatest number of Voice victories.

 
  
 
 

CBS, 10:00 p.m. ET

SPECIAL PREMIERE: Last year’s prime-time James Corden Carpool Karaoke special, in which he drove around Liverpool with Sir Paul McCartney and presented a surprise McCartney mini-concert at a local pub, was my favorite TV moment of last year. I don’t expect to be similarly moved by this year’s outing, which is dominated by him driving Celine Dion around the Las Vegas strip – but I’ll still watch, and listen, with interest, because the “Carpool Karaoke” concept is one of the purest new TV ideas in years. And speaking of years: It’s been four years since Corden premiered as a late-night host for CBS. Since then, he’s proven so valuable to the network – not only as Late Late Show host and viral video star, but as reliably entertaining host of both the Grammys and Tonys on CBS – that his contract renewal at the end of this season should be a foregone conclusion. And he deserves such a big raise, it should be an eightgone conclusion, at least…
