What’s New on TV Tonight (4/15/2020): Stream ‘Mrs. America,’ ‘Chicago Fire,’ ‘The Innocence Files’ and More

For tonight’s viewing options, civil rights are at the forefront. First, there is the series premiere of FX on Hulu’s “Mrs. America,” which takes a look into the equal rights movement of the 1970s. Then on Netflix comes “The Innocence Files,” which delves into eight cases of wrongful conviction currently being tackled by the Innocence Project.

On TV, “Chicago Fire,” “Chicago P.D.” and “Chicago Med” are all wrapping up their seasons, with the gang on “Chicago Fire” reeling in aftermath of one of their own getting injured. FX’s “What We Do in the Shadows” brings some comic relief as the vamps create more trouble for themselves by involving an necromancer and holding a seance to address a ghost infestation. The episode will be available on Hulu tomorrow, April 16.
