It’s not quite Boyhood, but on this series, we’ve seen the kids grow quite a lot – and that includes Sue (Eden Sher), who, over the years, has lost her braces and gained her confidence. Tonight, in the Season 6 finale of The Middle, she graduates from high school.

AMERICAN IDOL By David Bianculli

SEASON FINALE: The news is out that next year will be the last for American Idol. That gives this penultimate Idol crowning a bit more oomph – but even with a troika of judges who get along, this series basically stayed a bit too long at the mic.

MARVEL'S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. By David Bianculli

SEASON FINALE: Last week, this series overtly mentioned what Tony Stark did in creating Ultron, nearly destroying the planet as the run-amok metallic behemoth did in the currently running Avengers: Age of Ultron movie. This week, the focus in this two-hour finale is on which side Skye will choose in another powerful rising threat, which pits the survivors of S.H.I.E.L.D.
