WATCH THIS: SUNDAY
“The Affair” (8 p.m., 9:40 p.m., 12:30 a.m., Showtime): The title may be somewhat generic, but this splendidly acted TV drama earned critical kudos and multiple Golden Globe Awards during its five-season run, with both Maura Tierney and original leading lady Ruth Wilson picking up trophies along the way. Wilson’s character is no longer part of the show, but Tierney, Dominic West and their colleagues are still turning in firstrate performances as the drama airs its series finale, which sees everything coming full circle on Whitney’s (Julia Goldani Telles) wedding day.
“The Real Housewives of Atlanta” (7 p.m., 9:30 p.m., Bravo): Kenya Moore is back and bolder than ever as this hit reality season returns for Season 12. She may have gotten what she wanted with her husband and baby, but her roller coaster relationship may be approaching an end. Elsewhere, fan favorite NeNe Leakes has returned to her husband, who is now cancer-free.
“Christmas Scavenger Hunt” (7 p.m., Hallmark): No sooner has Belinda (Kim Shaw) arrived in her hometown for Christmas than she runs into old flame Dustin (Kevin McGarry), who broke her heart years ago by staying behind when she moved away for college. Her father (Tom Arnold) not-so-secretly wants the couple to get back together, so he “accidentally” pairs them as a team for the holiday scavenger hunt. Inevitably, Belinda and Dustin rekindle some sparks, but how will he feel when he finds out Belinda’s hidden agenda for coming back home?
“Always and Forever Christmas” (7 p.m., 11:01 p.m., Lifetime): After Lucy Bowers (Lexi Lawson), a brand marketing professional, inherits her grandfather’s year-round Christmas store in Stowe, Vt., she decides to return home to support the business during its final big holiday season, after which she’ll sell the store to a leisurewear company. During her visit, however, Scott Jensen (Mark Ghanimé), a local diner owner, helps Lucy understand what makes this family store so special.
“90 Day Fiancé” (7 p.m., 11 p.m., TLC): This hit series opens Season 7 with a new assortment of couples, all of whom have fallen in love and gotten engaged, but now must tie the knot before the foreign beloved has to return home. Among the new couples are: Tania, 29, of Connecticut, and Syngin, 29, of South Africa; Robert, 41, of Florida, and Anny, 30, of Dominican Republic; Michael, 41, of Connecticut, and Juliana, 23, of Brazil; and Emily, 28, of Oregon and Sasha, 31, of Russia.
“Ultimate Thanksgiving Challenge” (8 p.m., 11 p.m., Food): Some of America’s most creative chefs vie in holiday-themed challenges for a grand prize of $25,000 (and bragging rights) in this four-part competition. The culinary fun begins in tonight’s premiere, “Bang for Your Buck,” as host Giada De Laurentiis welcomes the six chefs and challenges them to take a low-cost item and transform it into a memorable Thanksgiving appetizer. For the dinner round, the chefs must create a Thanksgiving meal that includes an inexpensive turkey item.
“MTV Europe Music Awards 2019” (8 p.m., MTV): American singer-songwriter and actress Becky G hosts the 2019 edition of this annual awards ceremony from the FIBES Conference and Exhibition Centre in Seville, Andalusia, Spain, which becomes the first country to host back-to-back editions of this show.
