Answers abound in TV series' finales

HARTFORD, Conn., May 10 (UPI) -- U.S. TV series will reportedly offer their fans a number of answers to lingering questions in upcoming season finales.

The Harford (Conn.) Courant said Sunday's finales of ABC's "Brothers & Sisters" and "Cold Case" on CBS should offer a solution to a search for a missing brother and a major murder case, respectively.

Fans of NBC's "The Celebrity Apprentice" can watch Sunday to see if actress Joan Rivers can defeat fellow competitor, poker champion Annie Duke, in the show's season finale.

CBS will air the season finale of "The Amazing Race" Sunday, offering supporters of show contestants Jaime and Cara a chance to cheer on the former cheerleaders in the reality show competition.

Other notable finales scheduled this week include a three-hour season finale Tuesday for NBC's "The Biggest Loser: Couples," The CW's Wednesday finale of "America's Next Top Model" and the fifth season finale of FOX's "Hell's Kitchen" on Thursday.

The Courant said $100,000 will be up for grabs Friday when ABC's "America's Funniest Home Videos" crowns a winner for its 19th season.
