It’s a big night for NBC tonight, Tuesday, Nov. 12. There’s a new show debuting. Take a look at everything you can watch on TV tonight.

For NBC, it’s all about St. Denis Medical. You may groan at the idea of another medical show right now, but this one is a comedy. Sometimes we need just a little bit of laughter in the face of medical trauma, and that’s what we get with this one. Alex is a devoted nurse with a promotion in the ED with a team who is severely underfunded and overworked.

There are two episodes tonight, but starting next week, there will only be one. Night Court returns!

High Potential fall finale, Accused returns, and more

Over on ABC, we get a night of Dancing with the Stars and High Potential. This is a big High Potential episode as it’s the fall finale. Morgan brings Ava to see the police station. This should be a safe environment, but soon Morgan and Ava’s lives are on the line along with everyone else there. Two people are willing to bomb the precinct if Morgan and co. don’t find who a murderer is.

Meanwhile, FOX sees its Tuesday shows return after two weeks off. That includes Accused, which will see Michael Chiklis star as Justin. He’s a wrestling coach who pushes his star too far. What does that mean? It’s hard to tell based on the promo, just like so many episodes from the first season.

CBS returns with a full night of FBI shows. The first hour will see the introduction of Lissette Olivera’s new character, Syd Ortiz. She was written in as Scola’s new partner, but now she’ll only stick around for a few episodes. Syd comes to the team for help when her sister is the victim of a serial attacker.
