Daniella Pineda The Originals
If there’s ever been a time to warm up the DVR, this is the night. There are eight shows with Latinos in the mix offering up their season–and in some cases, series–finale.
We know it all had to end, but did it have to end so fast? Check out this Night of Farewells:
8:00
ABC: Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., though mostly without Latinos in the cast, it’s a favorite…and like most of tonight’s finales, it’ll be back next season.
CBS: NCIS is one of the highest-rated shows on the nets, and when Cote de Pablo was part of the time, it was also the home of one powerful Latina. Zeva may have retired, but the show remains popular…and tonight’s finale just makes you want for more come September.
CW: Daniella Pineda and the rest of the cast of The Originals say goodbye for the summer.
Al Madrigal and David Walton
About a Boy
FOX: Lea Michele and maybe Naya Rivera (if she isn’t edited out at the last moment) will be singin’ and dancing’ all night long for Glee’s season finale, and they’ll both back bin September for one more year.
NBC: It’s not a finale, but the clock is ticking on The Voice as the Semi-Finalists get their results and more talented singers fall (though this cycle there’s not a Latino left standing even now).
9:00
NBC: About a Boy isn’t a finale–heck, it only started a few weeks ago!–but it is new and renewed, which means Al Madrigal gets to keep his job another year.
ABC: The Goldbergs has their season finale tonight too, but they will return with Hayley Orrantia as a 80s teenager next fall.
Sarah Shahi
Person of Interest
9:30
ABC: Natalie Morales bids a bittersweet farewell as Trophy Wife sinks slowly into the sunset. And sad to say, this one won’t be back.
NBC: Look for another new episode of About a Boy as NBC fills out its schedule till the summer shows kick in.
10:00
CBS: Sarah Shahi is beautiful, deadly, and without remorse in the season finale of Person of Interest. It’s been a heck of a year; we can’t wait until September!
NBC: Monica Raymund and Joe Minoso puts down their medical skills and hose for the season in the finale of Chicago Fire, but here, too: back in the fall.
That’s seven finales and a few with a week or two to go…which mean hasta luego to some of our favorite shows for at least a few months. Thanks heaven the return and premiere of a passel of cable shows are about to premiere…
