| The star of the night, and the BEST show on broadcast network television, Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., returns Tuesday, Sep 29. BE THERE! |
Tuesday Nights! Another great night of television! Well, at least part of the time.
ABC is bringing back The Muppets (9/22) at 8 PM. As demonstrated by the unevenness of their movies, sometimes their revivals work; sometimes they don't. It's at least worth a shot. At 8:30 PM is Season 2 of Fresh Off the Boat (9/22) - you would think at some point the freshness would wear off. At 9 PM is the BEST SHOW ON BROADCAST TELEVISION, Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (9/29). Bless you, Joss Whedon, and the vibrant characters and stories you present. Starting 10/27 at 10 PM, ABC will start Wicked City, a crime drama focused on one case each season.
CBS starts off with their second and third hours of...THE GREAT NAVY CRIME WAVE!!! Season 13 of NCIS (9/22) at 8 PM and Season 2 of NCIS: New Orleans (9/22) at 9 PM. What's next? NCIS:Wichita? CBS wraps up the evening at 10 PM with the new show Limitless, about a guy who takes a drug that lets him do anything. Or thinks he can do anything - there are a lot of drugs like that. Something like that.
CW has The Flash at 8 PM. This is one of the more entertaining and high-spirited of the superhero shows, and this year - welcomes to Jay Garrick and Wally West (sorry - if those names mean nothing to you, it would take several paragraphs to explain. If you do know - woohoo!) 9 PM has season 2 of iZombie, a great show with zippy characters and dialogue, brought to you by the same people who did the most excellent series, Veronica Mars.
Fox news brings us Grandfathered (9/29) at 8 PM, in which a swinging single played by John Stamos finds out that he has a FULLer HOUSE then he realized. The Grinder (9/29) is at 8:30, with rob Lowe paling a TV actor who plays a lawyer and then decides he wants to be a real lawyer, except without getting any real law degree. 9 PM has Scream Queens (9/22), from the Glee/American Horror Story creators. It has an incredible 'hep' cast, including Emma Roberts, Jamie Lee Curtis and Lea Michelle. Could be funny, could be scary, could be both, might be neither. We'll see.
NBC has a new show Chicago Med at 9 PM, adding their third hour of 'Chicago' programming. I guess Chicago wants to give the Navy the run for its money. It's by producer Dick Wolf (Law & Order - ba bum!) and promises that it will be more medical and less soapy than Grey's Anatomy. Great. all the fun of a hospital visit without leaving home.
WGN has Manhattan (10/13) at 9 PM, about the race to build the nuclear bomb - a dramatic race that is...apparently taking at least two seasons.
FX has The Bastard Executioner (9/15) at 10 PM. Medieval battles with a mystical element, or.....Game of Thrones Lite. Not as light as broadcast TV, however. This is on basic cable and most episodes should be rated mature.
What will Tom Strait be watching? Well if you haven't picked up on the fact that I will be faithfully watching THE BEST SHOW ON BROADCAST TELEVISION, Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., you haven't been paying attention. And yes, the whole family watches and loves this show. Escape the Navy! Escape Chicago! Come join the fun and excitement! Benjamin and I watch The Flash (as do my older boys, Greg and Doug), and Alison and I watch iZombie.
What new shows will Tom Strait be sampling?
Yep. Can't help myself. Got this on DVR, and hopefully will see once The Dairy of Anne Frank is over and I have a little more time available.
Additionally, I will sample The Muppets and Scream Queens. Will they be good enough to permanently add? I don't know. Only time will tell.
