Jenny’s Choice

chicagopd114smallLast week was an exciting week for Chicago PD. Watching the bad guy nearly get the best of them so many times made for a tense episode, but in the end, the good guys won, of course, rescuing the final victim and catching the bad guy. But I gotta say that the personal stuff right now is just as interesting as the cases. Seeing Ruzek at the hospital with Burgess was great. (I swear, that’s the first time I’ve ever felt like I had a crush on him…) I was surprised (but not, because that’s what I’d guessed from the episode description) when Voight offered Erin’s position to Burgess, but I’m wondering what’s going to happen with her. She told him she had to think about it, then lied to Ruzek, and then woke up in the middle of the night to stare blankly into the bathroom mirror… Is she scared of working with Ruzek for fear they’ll end up like Roman and his ex? Scared of working Intelligence? Or just scared to go back on the job completely? Then, of course, we have Erin… This week she’s working with her new task force, but they’re working WITH Intelligence. But how long will that go on? I haven’t heard anything about her leaving the show, but I can’t imagine they’d keep her separate from them for long either, so… However it plays out, I’m VERY excited for tonight’s episode, given the preview I saw.

On tonight’s episode, “We Don’t Work Together Anymore,” Lindsay has her first case with the task force and realizes she needs to call on Voight and the Intelligence unit to assist. Meanwhile, Burgess is back on the job but relegated to desk duty which allows Desk Sgt. Platt the opportunity to partner up with Roman.

To see the teams work together to take down the bad guys, tune in to NBC at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Melissa & Joey, The Mentalist, The Mysteries of Laura, Modern Family, The Goldbergs, Criminal Minds, Law & Order: SVU, black-ish, Hot in Cleveland, Top Chef, Wahlburgers, Donnie Loves Jenny, & The Exes.

manseekingwoman114smallTonight, FXX kicks off the new comedy Man Seeking Woman, which takes a look at the world of dating through the eyes of hopeless romantic Josh Greenberg (Jay Baruchel, How to Train Your Dragon). The series also stars Eric Andre (The Eric Andre Show) as Josh’s best friend Mike, Britt Lower (Unforgettable) as Josh’s older sister Liz, and Maya Erskine (Betas) as Josh’s ex-girlfriend Maggie.

From the trailer, this show looks like it’s going to be hilarious, with a great comedic main cast and lots of fun guest stars! As Josh braves the dating world while still trying to get over his ex, he lets his imagination go wild, and every situation seems to break into an outrageous fantasy sequence. It looks sort of like a more demented, and definitely made-for-cable, version of Ally McBeal. I can’t wait to check out tonight’s premiere.

On tonight’s episode, “Lizard,” a breakup has lasting effect in the opener of this series following a naive twentysomething’s unrelenting quest for love.

Start the dating adventure tonight on FXX at 10:30/9:30c.

I’ll also be watching/recording The Mentalist, Criminal Minds, The Middle, The Goldbergs, Modern Family, black-ish, Empire, Melissa & Joey, Baby Daddy, American Horror Story: Freak Show, Top Chef, and Workaholics.
