What to watch on TV tonight: Friday

Here are the shows that’ll be on your Twitter timeline later.

Every lunchtime, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the TV shows that you’ll be tweeting about tonight and talking about tomorrow.

The Late Late Show (RTÉ One, 9.35pm)

The Late Late Show returns to safer territory tonight following last week’s marriage referendum debate. Tonight Ryan chats to Don McLean, Alexandra Burke, Jason Byrne and Ireland’s Eurovision hopeful Molly Sterling. Still ample opportunity for funny audience faces, though. #latelate

The Graham Norton Show (BBC One, 11pm)

While Molly Sterling is on The Late Late Show, Great Britain’s Eurovision entrant Electro Velvet (yep) will be showing what they’re made of on Graham Norton. Additionally, Graham will be joined on the couch by Miranda Hart, Rupert Everett and Greg Davies.

Alan Carr: Chatty Man (Channel 4, 10pm)

Alan Carr might have the best couch of all, though. The chatty man will be hanging out with Pitch Perfect 2 star Anna Kendrick, comedian Lee Mack and the incomparable Danny Dyer. What a motley crew! We can’t wait. #chattyman

Everyone’s talking about… Supergirl

Annoyed with Marvel’s refusal to make a female superhero movie?

Well, we have good news: a Supergirl TV show is on the way.

CBS has announced that it has officially picked up Supergirl to series. The series will star Whiplash actress Melissa Benoist in the title role and is expected to premiere later this year.

About time, too. (EW)
