It’s a reality show takeover on many networks tonight, Wednesday, March 5. Take a look at everything you can watch.

Wednesday nights have been all about game shows on CBS. That’s changing. After last week’s return of Survivor, we have a return of another reality show straight after. Wednesdays are starting to feel a little more back to normal.

The Amazing Race, The Masked Singer, and more

CBS and FOX are all about reality and game shows right now. Even ABC is filled with reality and game shows after an initial block of comedy. If you want drama, you’ll want to turn to NBC or The CW.

The Amazing Race is back tonight, Wednesday, March 5. The new contestants will set off for Hong Kong, where they will need to make their first big decision of the competition. It’s a 90-minute episode, with CBS bringing back the popular competition shows back-to-back.

Meanwhile, FOX has a night that starts with The Masked Singer, as usual. Group B will now take to the stage for the first time, bringing us five new clue packages and costumes. It’s time to get back into the guessing game. There have been some huge surprises up to this point, with the most recent reveal being Aubrey O’Day as Ant from Group A. Who will be unmasked this week?

Do you need a little bit of scripted drama in your life? How about Good Cop/Bad Cop on The CW? This is more of a dramedy, but it’s perfect for Leighton Meester fans. She’s already had some brilliant moments, showcasing a variety of emotions. In the new episode, Lou and Henry will need to get to the bottom of an attack on the quarterback at Eden Vale High School. This unravels secrets and brings up just how far people are willing to go when they’re jealous.

If it’s more serious drama that you want, then NBC has you covered with the entire One Chicago block. The third hour will focus on Chicago PD’s Intelligence, and Deputy Chief Reid is back to cause some problems for Voight and the team. Reid wants to start a Violence Reduction Initiative. Now this should sound like a good thing, but we know that Reid is up to something shady. Voight isn’t too convinced by Redi’s motives, and we don’t blame him.
