Jane The Virgin makes Mondays fun again
Here’s what’s up in the world of TV for Monday, January 19. All times are Eastern.
Top pick
Jane The Virgin (The CW, 9 p.m.): At long last, Jane The Virgin returns, making Monday nights right again. A hurricane hits Miami, and Jane is forced to stay at the Marbella. Abuela survives her soapy stairwell disaster, but understandably isn’t doing so hot. But Rogelio and his dreamy eyes are there to console Xiomara. Rafael gets his old job back, and Michael tries to help out with the Abuela situation. No mention of Luisa in the official episode synopsis, but even if she doesn’t appear in tonight’s episode, we here at What’s On Tonight are thinking about her and hoping she’s okay. In any case, we couldn’t be happier about Golden Globe-winner Gina Rodriguez returning to our television screens. All praise (fake) Saint Jane Villanueva.
Also noted
Sleepy Hollow (Fox, 9 p.m.): Sleepy Hollow also returns after a short break with “Pittura Infamante,” in which the suspicious death of an art restorer at the Sleepy Hollow Historical Society’s party makes Ichabod and Katrina reminisce on their ol’ pal Abigail Adams. It’s all very relatable.
Regular coverage
Gotham (Fox, 8 p.m.)
Elsewhere in TV Club
In the latest TV Club 10, LaToya Ferguson tells you all about the 10 most representative episodes of The Bernie Mac Show, which according to Ferguson, “offered not just a new attitude and approach to the family sitcom, but the sitcom overall.”
