Here’s what’s on TV tonight.

48 Hours: Christy and Hilda’s Last Dance (10 p.m., CBS)

Jonathan Vigliotti reports on the disturbing story of model Christy Giles and her friend Hilda Marcela Cabrales-Arzola, an architect, who went out for a night of fun at a warehouse party in Los Angeles in 2021, and were later dumped outside two different hospitals by masked men. Giles, 24, was dead, and Cabrales-Arzola, 26, was barely alive and died later.

Tonight’s episode provides an update on the case and the search for the answers, and includes the first primetime television interview with Jan Cilliers, the husband of Christy Giles. “They met a man who passed himself off as a big shot Hollywood producer,” Cilliers tells 48 HOURS. “And that just clearly wasn’t the case.” Also tonight, interviews with the parents and friends of Cabrales-Arzola.

This will also stream on Paramount+.

Saturday Night Live (11:30 p.m., NBC)

Ana de Armas (“Knives Out”) hosts with musical guest Karol G.

Some programming descriptions are provided by networks.
