With the closing of the Olympics comes the starting of a few more shows. I’ve had a little bit of a lull and started to dip back into things like Agents of SHIELD and Queen Sugar as well as keeping trucking on some streaming.
- iZombie (CW) Season Premiere, Monday, 9pm – I find this show very fun as our Zombie gal helps solve crimes, and now that Zombies are more exposed what will happen to her friends and foes?
- Living Biblically (CBS) Series Premiere, Monday, 9:30pm – This sitcom lands its protagonist in an effort to live the good life by the ways of the bible, though not a lot of strong reports.
- Good Girls (NBC) Series Premiere, Monday, 10pm – Good cast and what sounds like an iffy execution are still worth a watch as good moms go bad aka start robbing.
- McMafia (AMC) Series Premiere, Monday, 10pm – Drama, suspense, family… as we see how this Russian exile trying to live the straight and narrow get drawn into global crime, supposedly a good POV.
- Shoot the Messenger (WGN) Series Premiere, Monday, 10pm – Another crime drama this one starting with a reporter heading to meet a source, no report on the quality of this one.
- UnReal (Life) Season Premiere, Monday, 10pm – The first season of this was great but the second was a train-wreck of disappointment so I’ll give this one a look but I’m not all that hopeful.
- Unsolved: The Murders of Tupac and the Notorious BIG (USA) Series Premiere, Tuesday, 10pm – One reports indicates that this true crime drama is a cut above Menendez but not quite American Crime Story.
- The Looming Tower (Hulu) Series Premiere, Wednesday – A fictional look based on the nonfiction book about the lack of sharing of info between CIA and FBI and the possible impact on the rise of Bin Laden, led by Peter Sarsgaard and getting some good buzz.
- Glam Masters (Life) Series Premiere, Wednesday, 10pm – A friend of mine was just saying she might need a makeup reality show to supplement ANTM and Runway perhaps this might fit the bill.
- Atlanta (Fx) Season Premiere, Thursday, 10pm – This irregularly toned Donald Glover helmed look at his life in Atlanta was one of my faves though it’s been a while since it wrapped toward the end of 2016.
- B: The Beginning (Net) Series Premiere, Friday – A new anime has characters in a world of advanced technology, crime, and action.
- The Good Fight (CBSAA) Season Premiere, Sunday – As a big fan of The Good Wife I still couldn’t buy into the model of paying for more individual channels but hoping this spinoff is still bringing some good.
- Oscars (ABC) Sunday, 5pm – Following an hour+ of arrivals it’s time to see who wears what, says what, and takes home the statues.
