Christmas and New Year may be just around the corner, but that’s not stopping networks from bringing some great TV. Let’s take a look at what’s on the Big 5 networks tonight, Wednesday, Dec. 18.
This is a big night for CBS. Survivor did things differently this year, with a two-part finale. Well, the first part aired last Wednesday, and now it’s time to see the second half. Meanwhile, other networks opt for reruns and holiday specials.
Survivor, Jingle Bell Ball, and more
CBS is the only network with “normal” programming. It’s all about the two-hour Survivor finale. Who will be crowned the winner in season 47? We all have our own opinions, especially after that first part last Wednesday! We’re sure to see some twists added into the season as well.
After Survivor, CBS will opt for an FBI rerun. It’s time to head back to the season 7 premiere, so if you missed how Tiffany Wallace was written out of the series, now is your chance to catch up on that part of the story.
ABC has the 2024 Jingle Bell Ball. This is an iHeartRadio special, and it sees artists from all over the country performing various seasonal songs. If you need a night of music and no concentration, this is the program for you.
For those who prefer some comedy, you’ll want to turn to NBC. A Saturday Night Live Christmas is going to air. This is a look back at some of the most memorable Christmas sketches from the last 50 years. Yes, 50 years! It’s hard to believe sometimes that this show has been going on for so long, but it’s brought some excellent comedians to our screens over the decades.
There is still a new episode of Inside the NFL on The CW. After all, the football season is still going, and there were some big moments throughout last week! If you need something Christmasy, tune in when Sullivan’s Crossing would usually air. There’s a rerun of Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer.
Of course, FOX is the place to be for another finale. The Masked Singer season 12 finale will air, and it’s time to see who is behind the last masks and who will win this year’s competition.
