Is a new episode of Accused on FOX tonight? (April 18)

All eyes are on the next story of a person facing trial. Accused on FOX has been a great addition to the schedule, but is there a new episode tonight, Tuesday, April 18?

There have been some excellent individual stories of people facing trial on Accused on FOX. There are some questionable moments, but for the most part, the stories have helped us to see our own biases as we learn more about the individuals facing trial.

We have some bad news for tonight, Tuesday, April 18. There is not going to be a new episode on tonight. Instead, FOX is opting for a rerun. We’re heading back to the series premiere, which saw Scott face trial.

When will Accused on FOX return with new episodes?

It looks like this break is purely for scheduling reasons. FOX has set the finale date, and there are only three episodes left until that point. That means a week off is necessary. It’s only this series that is taking a night off as 911 Lone Star will still air a new episode.

When the show returns on Tuesday, April 25, we’ll get Samir’s story. There isn’t a synopsis out, but we do have a promo. It looks like Samir turns into a man with an obsession when he meets a woman. However, she has a boyfriend. Does this turn into a deadly case?

There is sure to be an element of bias in this story. After all, it looks like Samir is an immigrant, and we all know the bias against people of color, especially immigrants, in the United States. Will he even get a chance of a fair trial?

Check out the promo for the new episode next Tuesday:

Accused airs on Tuesdays at 9/8c on FOX. Catch up on Hulu.
