Of the new scripted series I don’t necessarily have high hopes for manipulating a reality show (Unreal), children hearing nefarious messages (Whispers), some chick going into a person’s subconscious (Stitchers), or yet another tale of random people tied together by something (sense8)… but I will of course take a look for a new TiVo filler. But am thrilled for the return of the best psychopath out there, what is Hannibal up to now?

Consider this a special double issue. I don’t have a lot of faith in Tatau or The Messengers (though more in BBC than the CW), and don’t get Show for Happyish. And of course sad to see the very end of Justified and the start of the end of the cheesy but fun Lost Girl.
