new and noteworthy tv: 3/2-3/15

Devs

If I could encourage you to watch one show this week it would be Bojack Horseman which I wrapped the series finale last week to satisfying end, though I’m tempted to start the whole thing all over again. I also wrapped up the very good Sorry for Your Loss on Facebook Watch, which just was unfortunately not a network that’s going to continue with its original scripted series. And the season finale of The Good Fight which I still find as a great balance of drama, characters, politics, and ridiculousness that only the Kings could bring, and yes I’m just paying for the episodes because I don’t subscribe to CBSAA. This week will bring some wall-to-wall coverage of super Tuesday and a few other things. I also seem to have missed the Party of Five remake on Freeform which has its finale this week, am I missing anything? I do find myself still tied to The Bold Type and Everything’s Going to Be Okay on Freeform shows but otherwise have given most things a pass.
