Don’t know what to watch tonight? Check out my recommendations and set your DVRs.

Agents of SHIELD (ABC, 8pm EST) – The team is back with an all new episode tonight featuring unexplainable floating victims, a weird humming sound and an invisible threat. It looks to be an intense episode with most of the team on the verge of tears in the promo. Stay strong, Fitz and Simmons!

Supernatural (CW, 9pm EST) – What do you do when the only witness is a dog? Well, if you’re Dean, it looks like you spend an episode mind melding with a German Shepherd. PS – If you have Directv, you’ll see the description says it’s a German Sheppard. Given that’s how Mark A. Sheppard spells his name, I’m sure that would be a completely different kind of episode.

Now that shepherd has lost all meaning as a word and looks totally weird, let’s move on to:

Sons of Anarchy (FX, 10pm EST) – Check your DVRs because this episode is scheduled to be 92 minutes long. Gemma confronts Margaret Murphy, the hospital administrator and as we know, these encounters never go well for Margaret. Clay also returns in what looks to be another bad day for him. Also, Jax and DA Patterson (CCH Pounder) sit down to talk. This is definitely a do not miss episode.

Real Housewives of Atlanta (Bravo, 8pm EST) – They’re back! Get ready for some gone with the wind fabulousness and craziness as the lovely ladies of Atlanta return with an all new season.

The Walking Dead (AMC, 9pm EST) – Tonight is all new in an episode that’s sure to be trouble for the group at the prison and even worse trouble for those on the supply run.

Talking Dead (AMC, 10pm EST) – Don’t worry. Marilyn Manson is not a guest again tonight but Chris Jericho and Gillian Jacobs are.

Watch What Happens Live (Bravo, 11pm) – We’re totally going to need Andy Cohen break down the Atlanta premiere for us. Even better, Kandi and Kenya are the guests. I’m pretty sure Kenya is leaving her gold pants at home and isn’t going to twirl, twirl, twirl.

Elsewhere on TV, at 8pm EST, there’s The Amazing Race on CBS (scheduled to start at 8:30), The Simpsons on Fox and Once Upon a Time on ABC with everyone’s favorite little mermaid.

Revenge is on at 9pm on ABC and The Good Wife is scheduled to start at 9:30pm on CBS.

What are you most looking forward to tonight?

SNL – Kerry Washington/Eminem

Standard

Did you miss SNL last night? Don’t worry. I’ve got all the best sketches with Kerry Washington right here.

In the cold open, SNL addressed the controversy of not currently having a black female performer on the show.

Kerry Washington’s monologue where she fixes problems for SNL cast members like her character on Scandal.

Nasim Pedrad makes this sketch worth watching as she plays a motivational speaker with a fondness for sound effects and thrusting.

This parody of The Fox was the sketch of the night. Good luck not getting it stuck in your head all day.

In this talk show sketch, guests weigh in on how the President is doing and what potential scenarios would cause them to no longer support him. I loved this sketch.

As was very clear in this episode, Jay Pharoah can do a lot more than his “attention teachers and students” principal character. However, Kenan kills it in this sketch and makes it worth watching.

Two words: Bitch Apartment.

Honestly, everything Kate McKinnon does is funny and her accent and expressions in this Weekend Update bit are no exception.

A thousand points to Aidy Bryant because she is the reason this sketch about a cartoon catchphrase game show is funny.

Staying in tonight? Here are some options for what to watch.

The Big Bang Theory (CBS, 8pm EST) – It’s a repeat from January but it’s one where the dudes go on a road trip in costume.

Saturday Night Live Halloween (NBC, 8pm EST) – This special will be a compilation of some of your favorite Halloween sketches over the years. Spooky, scary. It should be pretty awesome.

It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (ABC, 8pm EST) – Everyone’s favorite classic with a bonus animated short called, “You’re Not Elected, Charlie Brown.” That doesn’t sound like too much of a bummer.

Elsewhere at 8pm EST, 28 Days Later is on BBC America, FX has Paranormal Activity 2, The Lost Boys is on VH1 and Ovation is airing The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

At 9pm EST, The Crazy Ones, Sean Saves the World and Grey’s Anatomy are all new.

FX Networks

It’s the day before Halloween and TV knows it. So, what’s on tonight?

Criminal Minds (CBS, 9pm EST) – The episode focuses on ritualistic murder that may have a connection to the Salem witch trials. Also, Garcia has a Day of the Dead party.

Law and Order: SVU (NBC, 9pm EST) – This is a repeat of the two hour season premiere. If you haven’t seen it, DVR it. Just be aware that the first hour is very intense and upsetting if you’re a Benson fan.

Modern Family (ABC, 9pm EST) – It’s a repeat of last year’s Halloween episode but it’s definitely worth watching again.

American Horror Story: Coven (FX, 10pm EST) – The fallout from last week’s episode makes this a must see. The Council of Witchcraft (and Frances Conroy) arrives at the school to investigate the events of last week.

South Park (Comedy Central, 10pm EST) – It’s an all new episode featuring the return of Ike and Yo Gabba Gabba. Intrigued? Me too. If you’re Twitter-inclined, tune your TV to Comedy Central at 9:30pm EST and your Twitter device of choice to @southpark for a live-tweet of last week’s episode, Goth Kids 3: Dawn of the Posers.

On this week’s Supernatural, the dudes accidentally unleash the Wicked Witch of The West (yes, that one) while trying to hotwire the Men of Letters super computer to track angels. Ancient computers? Winchesters? Who you gonna call? Charlie Bradbury! Sorry, it’s almost Halloween. Couldn’t resist.

Spoilers below.
