LAW & ORDER:
SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT
NBC, 9 ET/PT

Fans of Mariska Hargitay’s per-
formance may not want to miss
this outing, which turns its atten-
tion to Benson’s personal life. A
6-year-old boy’s disappearance
leads Benson to examine her own
role as a mom.


BLACK-ISH
ABC, 9:30 ET/PT

No sitcom is trying harder to
make a statement, and make
viewers think about that state-
ment, than Black-ish. This week,
that effort results in a compelling
special episode that examines
post-election tensions and divi-
sions, as seen through the eyes of
Dre (Anthony Anderson), his
family and his co-workers. While
the episode is not one-sided, it’s
not balanced, either, and a certain
preachiness does set in — though
Anderson’s speech about loving a
country that has not always loved
him back is powerful enough to
justify the preaching. In the end,
this is a message episode, and
while no one will like everything
being said, the ultimate message
— that we need to stop calling
each other names and start lis-
tening to each other — would
seem to be one everyone can
embrace.


FULL FRONTAL
WITH SAMANTHA BEE
TBS, 10:30 ET/PT

Here’s something else everyone
should be able to agree on. This
election turned Samantha Bee
into a star, and her show — which
moves to its new Wednesday time
slot — into a political comedy
power.
