Elementary (CBS, 10:00 p.m.) — Holmes is determined to undermine the claims made by the makers of a piece of AI software while also working to find the people who stole it. This may be a prequel to the Terminator franchise reboot.

Bones (FOX, 8:00 p.m.) — Bones and the Bonettes investigate the death of a crossword puzzle master.

I find that weird and felt like sharing because this is a safe place.
Scandal (ABC, 9:00 p.m.) — The synopsis for the fall finale says that “everyone in Olivia’s life is in danger” but I’m sure that at least some of those fine folks will be a-okay because I’m a glass is half-full kind of guy.
