Monday Night TV Schedule

Monday’s are hard, and the only thing that makes them a little more manageable is the thought of coming home after a long day, kicking off your shoes, and relaxing on the couch and losing yourself in your favorite TV programming. Whether it be a reality TV show competition to find the next up-and-coming singer, fighting crime with an elite team, or watching doctors perform difficult surgeries on the newest medical drama, sometimes we all need an escape from reality to help us relax.

So without further ado, here’s what’s on TV tonight:
