The Masked Singer
HOW/WHEN & WHERE TO WATCH: 8 p.m. on Fox
Season Finale
After a season of shocking reveals and surprises, we’re finally at the season 4 finale. Mushroom, Sun, and Crocodile will compete for the last time in the two-hour, holiday-themed episode, with one earning the Golden Mask Trophy and ultimate bragging rights. If EW’s resident sleuths are right, then Aloe Blacc, Leann Rimes, and Nick Carter will be unmasked, but with this show we never know. And for the first time, we’ll see a panelist take home the Golden Ear Trophy. Going into the finale, Jenny McCarthy leads with three correct guesses, Robin Thicke and Nicole Scherzinger are tied at two, and Ken Jeong has… nada. That doesn’t stop the comedian from crowning himself the winner though, in a funny preview from Wednesday’s episode. —Rachel Yang

The Challenge: Double Agents
HOW/WHEN & WHERE TO WATCH: 8 p.m. on MTV
After Natalie Anderson’s defeat of champ Ashley Mitchell in last week’s season premiere of The Challenge: Double Agents, host/handler TJ Lavin gave her a choice: return to her previous partner Wes Bergmann, aka the reason why she was sent down into elimination first, or steal eliminated player Ashley’s partner CT Tamburello, who was also targeted by all the non-winners in the house. Or she could even steal anyone else’s partner to take the heat off her back. As the only person in the entire house who has a gold skull, which means she’s the only one eligible to run the final at this point, this is a huge decision. Who will she choose? —Sydney Bucksbaum

With the initial shock of quarantine behind them, our small troupe of Orange County ‘wives fearlessly head to Lake Arrowhead for a relaxing early summer girls’ trip organized by newbie Elizabeth. That’s what they get, at first, but things get tense when the conversation turns to racial injustice and the Black Lives Matter movement (in support of which we glimpsed some of the ladies marching in last week’s episode). Meanwhile, Braunwyn opens up about her sobriety’s strain on her marriage, and Emily struggles to take care of a very sick Shane. —Mary Sollosi
