BIANCULLI’S BEST BETS

PBS, 8:00 p.m. ET

Part 2. This is the conclusion of this two-part Nature documentary, in which it tells, in an hour called Into the Americas, the story of how cats came to the United States. Easy answer: From London to Broadway, with help from Grizabella and the Rum Tum Tugger. Check local listings.

DESIGNATED SURVIVOR

ABC, 10:00 p.m. ET

When the season began, this ABC series presented a fictional narrative, set in Washington, D.C., that seemed to depict the most unexpected political disaster imaginable. Today, nearly half the country now is likely to push Designated Survivor to second place – while the other half, plus a few more, has reason to be jubilant. And so it goes, this thing called democracy. Kiefer Sutherland stars.

SOUTH PARK

Comedy Central, 10:00 p.m. ET

South Park has spent all season on a continuing narrative about “member berries,” a mind-altering talking fruit that, when ingested, turns nostalgia into xenophobia, sexism and racism. And the story continues tonight, perhaps with more resonance than ever.

AMERICAN HORROR STORY 6

FX, 10:00 p.m. ET

One of the most interesting things about this latest edition of American Horror Story is its story structure, which presents its haunted-house tale via the structure of a reality-show recreation program. So, for example, you have a character named Shelby, played by Lily Rabe, and the actress “playing” Shelby in a reality-show recreation, played by Sarah Paulson. It’s a very clever framing device, and has become even more interesting as the series has evolved, hinting that the story the “real” Shelby is telling, and the “fake” Shelby is re-enacting, may be an intentional, murder-hiding lie.

FULL FRONTAL WITH SAMANTHA BEE

TBS, 10:30 p.m. ET

Samantha Bee, in her final pre-election special, let loose a torrent of Donald Trump epithets that seemed to be one step from endless. In tonight’s post-election special, how in the world will she react now?

THE LATE SHOW WITH STEPHEN COLBERT

CBS, 11:35 p.m. ET

Last night, on his uncensored Showtime special, Colbert and his guests were subdued, almost shocked – because by 11 p.m. ET, when their live special was televised, the Trump-is-winning writing was on the wall. So what will the tone be like tonight, back on CBS for another live special? It’ll be interesting, that’s for certain. Colbert’s guests include Miles Teller, Neil deGrasse Tyson, and, most likely, the most quotable guest of the evening, Robert Smigel with his hand-puppet alter ego, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog.
