What To Watch – Monday, January 15, 2018

The Brave returns with another new episode tonight; prepare for some fallout from last week’s daring rescue of Jaz.  Elsewhere, the epic Season 1 finale of The Gifted (2 hours worth!)’ the return of Supergirl from hiatus and new episodes of The Good Doctor and Scorpion.

8pm Hour:

1st Choice:  The Gifted. 2 Hour Season 1 Finale!! “Dr. Campbell attends an anti-mutant summit, attempting to take the Hound program national, and some of the team at Mutant HQ goes on a dangerous mission to stop his efforts.

2nd Choice:  Supergirl.  And we’re back! The Legion of Superheroes makes its debut tonight! “Struggling to heal from her injuries inflicted by Reign, Supergirl remains in a dreamlike state, unable to be reached.

Meanwhile, Reign continues her rampage on the city so the DEO teams up with the Legion of Superheroes to try to stop her.”  The CW

3rd Choice: The Bachelor.  18 women remain. In this day and age, I think its refreshing that The Bachelor would be so bold as to have women wrestle each other for a man’s affection. Awesome job, ABC. Way to not be tone deaf to the current climate! “As the charming race car driver intensifies his search for his soul mate among the 18 remaining women, Arie selects eight women to battle for supremacy in the wrestling arena with two top veterans of the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling (GLOW).” ABC
