Fall tv keeps kicking in and I’m kind of enjoying it though my backlog might be suffering a bit. In addition to shows I’ll be tuning back in for Matlock and High Potential I dabbled a bit more. Brilliant Minds feels very generic, Murder in a Small Town feels quaint enough, Everybody Still Hates Chris hits familiar notes, and Joan was a slow start. I have also just started and am enjoying Nobody Wants This. Some new and returning faves to be on the lookout for.
