What’s On Tonight: ‘The People V. O.J. Simpson’ Reaches A Verdict

The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story (FX, 10:00 p.m.) – Warning: Spoilers Ahead. Just kidding, we all know what happens on tonight’s season finale. It’s a testament to the excellence of this show, the brilliance of Ryan Murphy and the talent of actors like Courtney B. Vance and Sarah Paulson that we’re even interested in watching O.J. get his inevitable not guilty verdict. Sadly, all good things must come to an end, and, if nothing else, The People v. O.J. Simpson has been good. At least we can all take comfort in the fact that we’ll be seeing Paulson and Vance again when Emmy nominations come out.
