Is ‘Black-ish’ On Tonight? President Trump’s Speech Delays ABC Comedy

ABC’s “Black-ish” will air its new episode at a slightly different time tonight.

The network will air President Trump’s address at 9 p.m. EST, followed by the Democratic response, which means its usual Tuesday primetime programming will shift slightly. ABC confirmed to International Business Times that it still expects to air new episodes of “Black-ish,” “Splitting Up Together” and “The Rookie” in their entirety, but not until the speeches are over.

While the first is set to only last until 9:08 p.m. EST, there’s no expected end time for the Democratic response. Once both have finished, though, that’s when Season 5, episode 9 of “Black-ish,” titled “Wilds of Valley Glen,” will air.

“Dre [Anthony Anderson] must take Jack [Miles Brown] and Diane [Marsai Martin] on a mandatory camping trip for school and hatches a plan for them to escape to a fancy hotel for some pampering,” the synopsis reveals of what fans can expect from the new episode. “Meanwhile, Bow [Tracee Ellis Ross] gets an award at work, but feels undermined after a colleague is surprised to learn that she went to USC for med school.”

If you are planning on DVRing the episode and watching it later, make sure to adjust the start and end times of the recording so that the whole thing gets properly captured.
