Here’s what’s up in the world of TV for Monday, August 8. All times are Eastern.
Top picks
Devious Maids (Lifetime, 9 p.m.): “Grime And Punishment” (get it? MAIDS!) is here, and we’re sure it’s going to be one hell of a fourth season finale. We mean, Devious Maids has been doing such a ridiculous (in all the best ways) Scientology riff this entire season, so we’re assuming it all ends with either an ascension into the cosmos or at least an attempted ascension into the cosmos. Fingers crossed!
Angie Tribeca (TBS, 9 p.m.): Hehe, “Electoral Dysfunction.” Way to go out with a bang in your second season, Angie Tribeca. “The thrilling conclusion to Season 2. Every question answered. Every twist explained. A logically and emotionally gratifying finale that is sure to silence all critics and guarantee a third season.” Well we’re sold. Mayhem Global, Sgt. Pepper, Heather Graham—this will all definitely make sense come the end of “Electoral Dysfunction.” Hehe.
UnREAL (Lifetime, 10 p.m.): UnREAL’s divisive second season also ends tonight, with “Friendly Fire.” Ah, we’re going to miss you most of all, war-based episode titles. “In the second-season finale, Quinn’s plans for the remaining two contestants could be foiled by an unexpected turn of events. Meanwhile, Rachel stands up to Coleman just as his plot to expose the show begins to unfold.” This season could also end with an ascension into the cosmos, and seeing as the show has already been renewed for a third season, Gwen Ihnat would love to see how they’d write themselves out of that corner.
