After a long winter break, we’re certainly ready to get our nights of TV back in order. The good news is we’re getting there, with plenty to watch across the broadcast TV networks tonight, Wednesday, Jan. 15.
You just need to decide what you want to watch. Would you prefer a scripted drama, or are you in the mood for a game show? CBS is still airing some reruns, but it has started up its Game Show Wednesday lineup!
Something that is worth noting is that President Biden's address will take up the first 20 minutes of the night. Most networks are just pushing their shows back by 20 to 30 minutes. NBC is opting for no new episodes of shows at all.
The Price Is Right At Night, Chicago Fire, and more
CBS will bring a whole night of game shows on Wednesdays in a couple of weeks. The Price Is Right at Night is already starting us off. Just like during the daytime game show, the series will follow contestants playing games in the hope of winning top prizes.
After that, it’s time to tune into Raid the Cage, which sees contestants race against each other. They need to answer trivia questions if they want to move onto the next part of the race.
If you're in the mood for drama, you'll need to settle for reruns. NBC has opted to preempt the full night of One Chicago dramas for next Wednesday. Instead, we'll get a rerun of episode 3 of all current seasons of Chicago Med, Chicago Fire, and Chicago PD.
ABC brings a new episode of Shifting Gears, the new Tim Allen comedy series. Matt will attend the open house at Carter’s school, where he is shocked to find out about the allowances made for Carter’s anxiety. This is sure to set Matt off on a rant about how kids are being wrapped in cotton wool instead of being forced to face the world outside.
