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.

Netflix adds a BBC police woman drama to the lineup, Intruders introduces another peculiar possibly paranormal tale of some peeps, and Masterpiece kicks off another mystery. As for reality I can’t really recommend ANTM to anyone who’s not already on-board but did find the intro of dudes last season to be a good one, and though it’s not a tattoo competition show will check out Epic to tide me over ’til the others return. And of course prepping for more tennis.
