What's on TV tonight, Nov. 5, 2024? (It's Election time!)
It’s all about Election Night across the United States tonight, Tuesday, Nov. 5. Here’s what you can watch on the broadcast networks.
As soon as Election Day was set for Tuesday, Nov. 5, we knew what that meant for our favorite TV shows. There wouldn’t be episodes of our favorite shows. It’s always about the Election coverage, as each network will have its own reporters and own needs.
Election coverage on all networks
Every single one of the Big 5 networks will air coverage. They have their own specials, focusing on different parts of the country and different aspects of the Election.
Ignore what the TV Guide listings has included up to this point. It did say that FOX would hold reruns of Accused and Murder in a Small Town, but that isn’t the case. FOX’s own press site makes it clear that it’s own election coverage is happening. FOX’s coverage actually starts at 7 p.m.
All the shows that would usually air tonight will be back next Tuesday. We’re getting ready for new episodes of High Potential, The Irrational, Accused, and much more. Accused and Murder in a Small Town have been off for two weeks now, and we’re excited to see what’s to come. In the former, Michael Chiklis returns to the series but taking on a different character from his season 1 appearance.
Even networks like PBS will have some coverage of the night. If you want to watch something different, you’ll need to turn to your favorite streamers.
