‘Bad Sisters’ and ‘Get Millie Black’ Finales, 2024 Overview With Kevin Hart and Kenan Thompson, Jill Wagner Celebrates Christmas on the Farm
The Apple TV+ dark comedy Bad Sisters moves up its season finale a few days. Also ending: HBO’s atmospheric thriller Get Millie Black. Kevin Hart and Kenan Thompson look back at the highs and lows of 2024. Actress/producer Jill Wagner celebrates Christmas at her Tennessee farm in an uplifting special.
Bad Sisters
The Season 2 finale of the Irish dark comedy gets an early premiere in advance of its usual Wednesday drop on Christmas Day. As if last week’s return of a character from the seemingly dead wasn’t enough, the Garvey sisters now have to confront the reality of allowing a new villain into their family in the season’s rollicking climax, eliciting laughter amid the screams. As we discover what went down between Grace (Anne-Marie Duff) and her second husband Ian (Owen McDonnell) before her tragic death, farcical complications lead to a literal “Cliff Hanger” (the episode’s title) and a satisfying resolution.
Get Millie Black
The British thriller’s season finale shifts action between Kingston, Jamaica, where local detective Curtis (Gershwyn Eustache Junior) is left cleaning up a bloody mess, and London, where ex-Scotland Yard investigator Millie (Tamara Lawrance) returns incognito to pursue and take down the human trafficking ring. Saving young Romeo would be a bonus.
Back That Year Up With Kevin Hart and Kenan Thompson
Comedy tag team Kevin Hart and Saturday Night Live mainstay Kenan Thompson, who yukked it up in Paris this summer for their Olympic Highlights Peacock series, reunite for their third year-in-review special. They’ll take on sports (the Olympics), pop culture (Wicked) and, sigh, politics, with guests including comedian Nate Bargatze, actor Jon Hamm, NBA great Blake Griffin, musician Kenny G, late-night host Seth Meyers, and more.
Christmas on the Farm with Jill Wagner & Family (8/7c, Great American Family): Almost unrecognizable as a fierce Special Ops warrior in the streaming series Lioness, on which she’s an executive producer, Jill Wagner returns to the safe haven of family-friendly TV for a homespun holiday special featuring her and husband David Lemanowicz, an active member of the U.S. Army Reserves, at their farm in Tellico Plains, Tennessee. They participate in yearly traditions including cutting and trimming the tree, gathering at the dinner table to sing “Silent Night” and attending a candlelight service in their restored chapel. They also welcome a local family who lost everything in September’s Hurricane Helene, receiving surprise gifts from the community.
