TV tonight: Get ready for the Super Bowl (and the Puppy Bowl)

Kelly Lawler | USA TODAY

Super Bowl LII

NBC, 6 ET/3 PT

Get your seven-layer dip and wings ready, it's Super Bowl Sunday. This year, the Philadelphia Eagles are going up against reigning champs the New England Patriots, pitting quarterbacks Nick Foles and Tom Brady in an epic showdown. The halftime show might be just as dramatic as the game, with Justin Timberlake returning to the stage 14 years after his infamous performance with Janet Jackson, in which Timberlake exposed Jackson's breast on live TV. Although no other performers have been announced, halftime shows often have surprise guests, and bringing Jackson on the stage could be the biggest win of the night.

This Is Us

NBC, (10:15 ET/7:15 PT, time approximate)

This is the episode This is Us fans have been waiting for. After teasing fans for a season and a half about how Jack (Milo Ventimiglia) died, the series showed in its most recent episode that a faulty Crock-Pot started a fire at the Pearson home in 1998. The post-Super Bowl episode promises to finally fill in the rest of the blanks and rank as one of the series' most heart-breaking episodes yet.

Puppy Bowl XIV

Animal Planet, 3 ET/12 PT

Almost as anticipated as the Eagles vs. Patriots matchup, the Pup-triots will face off against the B-eagles, and teams Ruff and Fluff will hit the Puppy Bowl stadium for Animal Planet's cutest yearly tradition.
