Last week was a busy week, I am likely going to give another watch to most network shows other than passing on Bob, Mixed-ish, and Bluff City Law.

new and noteworthy tv: 9/23-9/29

Fall is here! Depending on where you are it still feels a lot like summer but tv waits for no man. I did my note of returning fall tv but in lieu of an intriguing new fall tv post without any advanced knowledge on many of these series I’ll call out anything I’m particularly looking forward to or have reason to believe it might be worth a look.

  • Team Kaylie (Net) Series Premiere, Monday 9/23 – Teen celebrity gets a court order to lead an inner-city wilderness club for some reason.
  • Bob (Hearts) Abishola (CBS) Series Premiere, Monday 9/23, 8:30pm – The latest Chuck Lorre comedy and while this could be the next gem the previews make it feels a bit like a Mike & Molly with immigration instead of weight as the hook as this romance takes off, maybe.

  • The Prodigal Son (Fox) Series Premiere, Monday 9/23, 9pm – Serial killer’s son helps solve crimes with what looks like the help of dear old dad, some early interest.
  • Bluff City Law (NBC) Series Premiere, Monday 9/23, 10pm – Jimmy Smits returns to the courtroom in this new drama as his daughter returns to the firm following the mother’s death, maybe.
  • Mixed-ish (ABC) Series Premiere, Tuesday 9/24, 9pm – I never quite connected with Black-ish or Grown-ish but they both have ingredients I wanted to like more than I did so we’ll see on this.
  • Emergence (ABC) Series Premiere, Tuesday 9/24, 10pm – Another genre show, this one with Allison Tolman playing a cop who takes in a girl unscathed by a mysteries crash, and intrigue ensues to see if this could rise above some similar attempts.
  • Stumptown (ABC) Series Premiere, Wednesday 9/25, 10pm – This is my dramatic pick of the season with Cobie Smulders as tough PI, you know a little messy but trying to do the right thing, based on a graphic novel.
  • Cake (Fxx) Series Premiere, Wednesday 9/25, 10:30pm – Life action and animated short form animation, unknown but could have some good bits in the mix.
  • Creepshow (Shud) Series Premiere, Thursday 9/26 – This anthology series based on the film by Stephen King, unknown but could have some good bits in the mix.
  • Perfect Harmony (NBC) Series Premiere, Thursday 9/26, 8:30pm – Anna Camp and Bradley Whitford helm a church choir in need of help premise which hopes to bring the best elements of a Pitch Perfect with a little more hard on their luck comedy, good ingredients might make this work.
  • The Unicorn (CBS) Series Premiere, Thursday 9/26, 8:30pm – Walter Goggins more known for playing more sketchy guys in dramas stars as a widow starting over, including dating, and this looks to have good cast and some early signs of good comedy, comedy pick of the season.
  • Carol’s Second Act (CBS) Series Premiere, Thursday 9/26, 9:30pm – Patricia Heaton plays a divorce who takes a late in life career path is worth a look to see if her sitcom luck holds out (and I’m going to ignore the fact that she’s 61 playing a 50 year old, why?).
  • Sunnyside (NBC) Series Premiere, Thursday 9/26, 9:30 – Kal Penn stars as a scandal ridden councilman turns to tutoring Queens residents prepping for their U.S. citizenship test, strikes as a light premise but who knows maybe it’s the next Community.
  • Evil (CBS) Series Premiere, Thursday 9/26, 10pm – This reads a little X-File-ish and a trio look into the scientific vs. supernatural display of evil, but with the Good Wife/Fight Kings at the helm this could stand out and I’m intrigued to see what they’ll do with this.
  • The Politician (Net) Series Premiere, Friday 9/27 – Ryan Murphy’s latest introduces us to high school student with aspirations of Oval Office by way of student body president and this dark humor has potential to strike some right cords.

returning fall favorites

The Good Place

A few things retired this last year and I’ve pretended that I’ve been more discriminating about adding new shows but let’s face it there’s always a pretty decent set of returning tv. Here are some of the shows I’ve still got on season pass (or the streaming equivalent). Stay tuned for intriguing new fall tv.

  • Big Mouth (Net, 9/29) – I caught up on this amusing coming of age animated show, that’s pretty crass but has some heartfelt humor.
  • Bless This Mess (ABC, 9/24) – This is one of those shows that has the potential of being very funny though they’ve just started to mine the rich comedy potential of this fish out of water with a great cast.
  • The Connors (ABC, 9/24) – I really liked the balance shift to the other characters after Barr left and all of their aging has just brought new fodder.
  • The Crown (Net, 11/4) – I admit that I’ve only gotten through the first season and though it was very good I haven’t gotten back to it, curious to see the play out of power and whatnot.
  • Goliath (Am, 10/4) – This show about a washed up once great lawyer got so ridiculous in the last season that I was pretty sure I wasn’t going to tune in again but now that it’s coming back I have to admit I’m a little curious.
  • The Good Place (NBC, 9/26) – This show has been a true delight with each season bringing the funny with each twist and turn, I can’t wait and am very sad for the final season with this forking dummies.
  • God Friended Me (CBS, 9/29) – This show is for sure on the schmaltzy side but sometimes even I need a little feel-good resolution and the overarching mystery is enough to keep a greater thread but not so convoluted it turns me off.
  • It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia (Fxx, 9/25) – Going into the fourteenth season of this the characters haven’t grown anything other than older but curious what mess of adventures they’ll get themselves into.
  • The Kominsky Method (Net, 10/25) – Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin are great as friends, whether they always like it or not, who are facing the challenges of their later years.
  • Madam Secretary (CBS, 10/6) – If only politicians were always trying to do the right thing, well I’m happy to watch the final season of Tea Leoni as Elizabeth McCord throwing her hat into the presidential race.
  • Mom (CBS, 9/26) – Anna Faris and Allison Janney bring mother daughter drama to new points of laughter with their fellow recovering addicts.
  • Mr Robot (USA, 10/6) – I have no idea what’s going on in this show anymore but still compelled to see what Rami Malek’s character and his breaks from reality bring through computer hacking.
  • Single Parents (ABC, 9/25) – This is another comedy that feels like it’s got a lot of great ingredients and although it hasn’t mastered them week after week I’m still for sure in.
  • Sorry for Your Loss (Face, 10/1) – Elizabeth Olsen as a young widow trying to deal with her grief hit so many good notes in its first season that I’m almost afraid of another but I’ll be tuning back in even if I haven’t mastered Facebook Watch.
  • Superstore (NBC, 9/26) – This show currently holds the mantle for best workplace comedy and since they’re not afraid to stray from big stakes issues curious how the cast will deal with Mateo being arrested by ICE.
  • Transparent (Am, 9/27) – I’m also pretty behind on this and haven’t tuned in post Tambor drama but it’s a rich family and some odd tangents have made for an interesting show, the final season will air as a feature length musical so there’s that.

And don’t worry some stuff is just set for later. Anything else on your list?

With a little free time some backlog conquering seems within my sights. Wrapped the latest Stranger Things which still meets a pretty good summer nostalgia factor and am working away on Veronica Mars and Downton Abbey (before the movie comes out!) among others.

summer cleaning – season passes

Deadly Class

As I wrapped up with the series finale of iZombie it reminded me that it was time to take a pass at my season passes with the ending of a variety of shows. Following are some of the ones I’m saying goodbye to (good thing I have plenty else to keep me busy).

You lived a good life:

  • Humans (AMC) – I absolutely loved the first season of this and although there would be more story to be told on the role of sentient synths the series felt like it ran a good course.
  • iZombie (CW) – This tale of a woman turned zombie who solved crimes by eating brains took us on a fun journey with her friends and lots of zombie action and felt like it told the story it wanted with the wrap up.
  • Life in Pieces (CBS) – It may not have been the best series but there was enough funny with this family to keep me tuned in but ok that it was time to wrap it.
  • Gotham (Fox) – I honestly haven’t even started watching the final season but this show had some great moments but again the pre batman story has an expiration date.

Gone too soon:

  • Abby’s (NBC) – This friends hanging out at a bar had a good enough cast and ingredients for this to be a very fun hang show had it been given some legs.
  • Deadly Class (Syfy) – This comic book tale set in the 80s of an underground high school of the deadly arts had great tone and soundtrack and sad I won’t get to see what happens next.
  • Speechless (ABC) – Truthfully this is almost in the you lived a good life, but this special needs family just felt like it had more depths to explore as their family moved into a new chapter.
  • Whiskey Cavalier (ABC) – I love a good caper film and this top secret team was just plain fun.

Saving me some TiVo time:

  • Fam (CBS) – Generic comedy had some good ingredients but I won’t miss it.
  • The Passage (Fox) – I was a bit intrigued by the huge change in the season finale but overall this show was trashy in a way that I didn’t put down but am totally ok with it not being on the list.
  • The Cool Kids (Fox) – There is a nostalgia factor with the actors and the straightforward comedy, I thought this would catch on more but honestly it wasn’t something that really hit.

Streaming sadness (no technical season pass):

  • Forever (Amazon) – This was a very odd story but I really enjoyed the first season and was intrigued to see where else they would go.
  • Patriot (Amazon) – Ok sad spy probably put us through as many seasons as our protagonist could take but I’m glad we had him while we did.
  • Santa Clarita Diet (Netflix) – Zombies were all the rage but this Drew Barrymore and Timothy Olyphant one was really the most fun.
  • Sneaky Pete (Amazon) – Just starting the final season and while imperfect I enjoyed Giovanni Ribisi con man fun.
  • The Tick (Amazon) – A fresh take on the comic superheroes active in our world and the folks they interact with.

Also in their final seasons, or about to be, Agents of Shield, Elementary, The Good Place, Killjoys, Legion, Madam Secretary, Mr Robot, and Will & Grace have each had a good run and happy to know they have time to wrap up properly.

BH90210

Dabbling with another two week look ahead… Wrapped Sabrina which was entertaining enough so that opened a little slot for Stranger Things. And with the reboot of 90210 my rewatch might wrap as they take off into their college years in the show, which was probably a little earlier than I dropped the first time (but good gawd season 4 alone is 31 episodes, I don’t know how anyone made it through all 10). Which is giving me a new slot to rewatch Veronica Mars, though now that my promo year of hulu is up I’m reevaluating my commercials included subscription level. Also sad to see iZombie wrap up but it had a good run and looking forward to next seasons of Glow and Dear White People. Skipping on The Disappearance and Pandora after not a lot of interest held in the first ep.

  • Four Weddings and a Funeral (Hulu) Series Premiere, Wednesday the 31st – Based on the film this look at four friends reunited at a wedding, not amazing initial reviews but might still be a good romcom.
  • My Life is Murder (Acorn) Series Premiere, Monday the 5th – Australian mystery with Lucy Lawless as a fearless PI.
  • Bulletproof (CW) Series Premiere, Wednesday the 7th – Two undercover cops chase down criminals in London’s East End.
  • BH90210 (Fox) Series Premiere, Wednesday the 7th – The original cast (minus Perry, sniff) reunite to play ‘heightened versions of themselves’ in a behind the scenes look at rebooting the show, as an early Beverly Hills, 90210 fan wouldn’t miss a look.
  • Two Sentence Horror Stories (CW) Series Premiere, Thursday the 8th – Anthology horror series strikes me as being longer than two sentences but we’ll see.

More streaming:

  • Dollar (Net) Series Premiere, Thursday the 8th – This Middle Eastern drama has a beautiful executive assistant teaming up to find a dollar worth a million.
  • The Naked Director (Net) Series Premiere, Thursday the 8th – Biopic of the life of director Toru Muranishi who revolutionized Japanese porn.
