Monday:

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend: West Covina, California has never gotten so much attention! This singing sensation of a show also mixes drama and humor. Rachel Bloom as Rebecca Bunch continues to shine as her efforts to woo Josh Chan finally don’t go unnoticed. We’ve just seen them kiss, so what happens next? Josh goes to Hawaii of course! But what does that mean for Rachel though? Of course, a trip to Hawaii! Unfortunately, she’s finally tapped out all of her resources. Find out if Rebecca is able to successfully stalk her sweetheart (again) by tuning in! (CW, 8pm ET/PT)

 

Lucifer: What happens when the King of Hell moves to LA? He uses his bad ways for good. Teaming up with the LAPD to help bring the bad guys to justice, this week we find our bad boy getting help from an unlikely source while helping his police partner, Chloe (Lauren German) track down the contents of a stolen container. Learn what tricks Lucifer (Tom Ellis) has up his sleeve this week when you watch his namesake. (FOX, 9pm ET/PT)

 

Tuesday:

New Girl: Happy 100^th Birthday! It’s the 100^th episode of New Girl and to honor it we mark the return of Jess from jury duty (a/k/a star Zooey Deschanel was on maternity leave). With Jess back on the scene, Reagan is ready to move out, much to the dismay of Nick who has become romantically attached to her. But it wouldn’t be an episode of New Girl without some sort of silliness ensuing so we all get to bask in the beauty of watching CeCe and Winston teach Schmidt conquer his fear of public dancing. (FOX, 8pm ET/PT)

 

iZombie: It turns out there is life after death. Just ask Liv Moore, part time medical examiner and part time zombie. The crime of the week involves another part-timer: shop teacher by day and vigilante crime-fighter named “The Fog” by night. With Liv’s new penchant for police work, even Clive needs a break from busting bad guys. (CW, 9pm ET/PT)

 

Wednesday:

Expedition Unknown: Adventurer Josh Gates has headed to Nepal in search of Shangri-La. He has made his way into “Sky Caves,” areas hand carved out in mountains that hold anything from Buddhist temples, artifacts to the origins of the Nepalese ways of life. Watch as this modern day Indiana Jones takes you to new heights while discovering the path to pure bliss. (Travel, 9pm ET/PT)

 

Thursday:

Shades of Blue: This Jennifer Lopez helmed show is raw and gritty. Former fans of NYPD Blue finally get back to the dark and dirty world of the NYPD back in their lives thanks to Shades of Blue. In last week’s episode, Harlee (Lopez) and Wozniak (Ray Liotta) picked up a package for the looming big job, which turned out to be a kidnapped man. This week we get more clues about who is running the show behind the big job. (NBC, 10pm ET/PT)

 

How To Get Away With Murder: Viola Davis. Enough said. Okay, I’ll give you more. Last week we learned that Rose stabbed herself and that Annalise was under attack (that ankle grab) by Phillip. Will the Keating Five be able to save their mentor from this mastermind? Will Wes be able to confront Annalise about her relationship with is mother? There are only two episodes left this season so you better lock that dial in place and give this episode your full attention. (ABC, 10pm ET/PT)

 

Friday:

The Amazing Race: Headed to the French Alps, the teams must now conquer any fear of heights by ziplining through these breathtaking mountains. Plus, now that the teams have gotten to know each other better, sparks start to fly between Blair and Brodie. But it’s not all roses with everyone racing for the prize when some teams keep clues to themselves. Find out who ends up being the last to the mat! (CBS, 8pm ET/PT)

 

Sunday:

Bob’s Burgers: Lice. One word says it all and says so much. When an outbreak of lice happens Wagstaff, we have to wonder if at least one of the Belchers will end up with these bad bugs. With a guaranteed musical number, Louise’s musings, Tina’s boy concerns, Linda’s love for her family, Gene’s goofiness and Bob being a worry wart – laughter is sure to be the best medicine for us all. (FOX, 7:30pm ET/PT)

 

Quantico: Sunday night is the perfect evening to get your heart racing in preparation for heading back to work the following day. To end the evening, tune in to Quantico for that jolt drama you desperately need. Tonight the NATS learn how to source information informants, but are started with the realization that being an agent is not as easy as it seems when they must put their new skill to the test in the real world. Alex furthers your heart palpitations when she and a fellow agent find themselves stuck in a life or death situation that forces them to provide classified information that could result in some deadly consequences. (ABC, 10pm ET/PT)
