If you haven't heard me yelping about the best new show of this season, The People v O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story, then hear me now! The season finale for this absolutely excellent, funny, smart, and most of all, politically relevant show is TONIGHT (April 5) on FX at 10 pm. Sarah Paulson is a goddamn revelation as prosecutor Marcia Clark, and though wildly improbable, the creators have managed to imbue a sense of humanity into practically every single character in the near-unbelievable, but true court case. You'll learn so much more than you ever thought, and if you don't come out of it with a new appreciation for #BlackLivesMatter, feminism, and the broken justice system, then I shall eat my very large hat.

WATCH IT, WATCH IT, WATCH IT—and catch up on earlier episodes here and here.
