To watch
SEASON FINALE, America's Next Top Model, 8 p.m., CW: Can we call it a surprise double elimination if we already know about it? Thankfully, they wait until there's only two finalists to shoot the inevitable commercial.
Top Chef Masters, 10 p.m., Bravo: The Simpsons creator Matt Groening, voice actor Hank Azaria and writer Matt Selman judge a quickfire challenge based on the show's characters. We can't wait to see what they come up with for Moe Szyslak.
Happy Town, 10 p.m., ABC: Episode title is "Polly Wants a Crack at Her," which is so clever we forgot to check what the show is about. Oh, right, murders and such.
Coming up
$5 Day at the Zoo: Lowry Park does this only a couple of times a year, and the crowds can be massive. But if you take advantage of this deal Sunday, go early and bring along water shoes and drip-dry clothes to play in the splash zone. Zoo opens at 9:30 a.m. at 1101 W Sligh Ave. in Tampa. (813) 935-8552.
