While we’re closing in on the end of the current regular TV season, there are still plenty of shows to check out across the broadcast networks. Take a look at everything airing tonight, Friday, April 25.

This Friday will look a little different to normal. ABC has a night of no usual content, while CBS has a two-hour finale of one of its shows, meaning another show is off the air for the night. Let’s take a look to see what you can watch, what’s worth skipping, and much more.

3 shows to watch and 1 to skip tonight, Friday, April 25

There’s a lot to check out throughout the night, even with the changes. The first show that you need to watch is NBC’s Grosse Pointe Garden Society, especially after the way the previous episode ended. There is more unraveling about what happened the night of the gala, and we continue to get confirmation of people Quiche isn’t. With just a handful of episodes left, we need to get some answers, right? Plus, watching live tells NBC that we need more of this quirky, well-written dramedy.

After that, turn over to CBS. The two-hour Fire Country season 3 finale will air starting at 9 p.m. ET/PT. Yes, this means that SWAT is taking a night off, but that will be back next Friday, May 2. With a fourth season confirmed, we’re ready to see what type of cliffhanger Fire Country will deliver us this time.

Once you’ve worked through three hours of primetime, it’s time to go back to a show that you missed tonight. It’s all about the NCIS: Sydney season 2 finale. Again, it’s been renewed, so we’re in for a ride with a potential cliffhanger. This episode will also tell us who has been after the team this season, and it’s much closer to home than anyone would like to see.

What about the show to skip? The CW is packed with reruns that I’d highly recommend recording to watch the following day. Please watch Mysteries Decoded when you can. This show brings such a balance between the mystery and the ghost stories that it makes it entertaining (and educational) for all.
