It’s TV time! Well, almost! It’s time to find out what’s airing across the five broadcast networks tonight, Wednesday, Nov. 20.

There is a change to ABC’s schedule, with none of the usual suspects airing. For NBC, it’s a big night of fall finales. You will not want to miss a beat of broadcast tonight.

CMA Awards, One Chicago fall finales, and much more

Let’s start with the change to ABC’s schedule. There isn’t a new episode of Abbott Elementary, and, of course, The Golden Bachelorette aired its finale last week. What’s on tonight, instead? It’s all about the CMA Awards tonight.

This is Country’s biggest night of the year. It’s the 58th year of the awards, and the likes of Kelsea Ballerini, Jelly Roll, and Eric Church will perform throughout the night. Luke Bryant, Lainey Wilson, and Peyton Manning will host this year’s awards.

If you’re more in the mood for drama, you’ll want to turn to NBC. It’s a night of fall finales across the One Chicago lineup, and we’re sure to see some big moments that have us worried about cast exits. In Chicago Fire, there’s some hope that we’ll see some promotions. Herrmann and Mouch are going to take their captain and lieutenant exams respectively. Will we see Herrmann work his way up to take over from Chief Pascal by the end of the season? There is hope with him taking the exam!

Meanwhile, we have new episodes of The Masked Singer and The Floor on FOX. It’s another night for Group C to perform in The Masked Singer. It’s all about Miley Cyrus Night for the performers, and they will all open the show with “Party in the USA.”

Yes, for those who are interested in sports, The CW has you covered. There’s a new episode of Inside the NFL to look back over the previous weeks’ games, which includes the Kansas City Chiefs’ first loss of the season. We’ll also look ahead at some of the games to come this week.
