‘American Crime Story: Versace’ Finale, Welcome to ‘Krypton,’ Season Finales of ‘X-Files,’ ‘9-1-1,’ ‘Speechless’

A selective critical checklist of notable Wednesday TV:

The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story (10/9c, FX): The “making of a psychopath” flashbacks are over, and in the finale of this gripping docudrama, a desperately alone and increasingly trapped Andrew Cunanan (the electrifying Darren Criss) must come to grips with his murderous actions, even while losing his grip. The tragedy doesn’t end there, as the series’ subtext of cultural homophobia leaves the late Versace’s widowed lover (Ricky Martin) bereft of comfort, shelter and emotional support.
