For TV viewers who still haven’t cut the cord, here is a selection of cable and network shows, movies and specials broadcasting Monday through Sunday, April 22-28. Details and times are subject to change.
Monday
THE SYNANON FIX 9 p.m. on HBO. In 1958, Synanon opened their doors in California as drug rehabilitation center. But the center started using a kind of attack therapy, in which patients are verbally abused and degraded in front of a group, and several members were later charged with child abuse, assault and attempted murder. This documentary series, which had its premiere at Sundance this year, is airing its fourth and final episode this week.
Tuesday
THE EXPRESS WAY WITH DULÉ HILL 9 p.m. on PBS (check local listings). In each of the four episodes of this documentary series, the actor Dulé Hill speaks to people across the country who are making art in nontraditional ways. In the first episode, Hill heads to California to meet a deaf dancer, a gay Mariachi and a cabaret group of senior citizens. The other episodes take place in Appalachia, Texas and Chicago.
SHOGUN 10 p.m. on FX. This mini series, based on the 1980s NBC show and book of the same name, is wrapping up. In an interview with The New York Times, Anna Sawai, who plays Lady Mariko on the show, said that the “the last two episodes are very special” and that “the men have been physically fighting. The women are fighting their own battles.”
Wednesday
AMERICAN HORROR STORY: DELICATE 10 p.m. on FX. The last few episodes of the 12th season of this Ryan Murphy anthology has followed the fallout of Anna (Emma Roberts) losing a Golden Globe and Siobhan (Kim Kardashian) perhaps killing off her competition. Will Anna get all she has dreamed about? Will Siobhan face any consequences to her actions? This season finale will bring answers.
Thursday
2024 N.F.L. DRAFT 8 p.m. on ABC. Spanning three nights, Thursday through Saturday, the N.F.L. draft is not for the weak. ABC and ESPN will air not only the live draft but will also supplement it with shows offering commentary and statistics on football players. The Athletic has all the information you need to follow along, with 400 player profiles and a ranking of all 2,000 prospective players.
THE JINX: THE LIFE AND DEATH OF ROBERT DURST 8 p.m. on HBO. The first installment of this documentary, which first aired in 2015, did for true crime what “Serial” did for podcasts: It introduced lots of people to a genre that has since become extremely popular. The series, which details the unsolved murder of Robert Durst’s wife and two other murders, is reprising for a second season about the filmmaker’s investigation.
Friday
100 DAYS TO INDY 9 p.m. on The CW. Europe has “Formula 1: Drive to Survive”; America has “100 Days to Indy.” These episodes focus on Josef Newgarden, who won the 2023 Indy 500 race, and Marcus Ericsson, last year’s runner-up. Will Newgarden or Ericsson win this year’s race? Or will the championship go to a newcomer?
WE’RE HERE 9 p.m. on HBO. The series about drag queens traveling across the United States is back, with some new additions: Sasha Velour, Priyanka, Jaida Essence Hall and Latrice Royale. They are traveling to Oklahoma and Tennessee, states that have proposed legislation that would bar state agencies from celebrating Pride month and limit drag performances.
Saturday
BRIDGET JONES DIARY TRILOGY starting at 4:30 p.m. on HBO. Since the news broke that a fourth installment of this classic rom-com series will be coming out — which, by the way, is Hugh Grant’s character being brought back from the dead? — I have been craving a marathon viewing of the first three movies. They follow Bridget Jones, a woman who decides she needs to get her life in order while managing beautiful and charming men including but not limited to Firth, Grant and Patrick Dempsey.
