The Rookie has been one of my favorites since it premiered, so I am super excited about the new spinoff, The Rookie: Feds. Niecy Nash is hilarious, and when she had a guest appearance on the original, she was super entertaining and really made me want to keep watching her. She makes a fantastic FBI agent, and I love the fact that the franchise is branching off to bring us some more comedic crime fighting.

On tonight’s episode, “Day One,” fresh out of the FBI Academy, Simone Clark arrives in Los Angeles and has her sights set on joining Matthew Garza’s newly formed special unit as they investigate the murder of a federal engineer. Garza’s squad includes Carter Hope, a promotion-hungry traditionalist, Laura Stenson, a talented agent in desperate need of a second chance, and Brendon Acres, a former actor who graduated from Quantico with Simone. On the home front, Simone and Cutty’s father-daughter relationship is put to the test as their opposing opinions about law enforcement come to a head.

Find out how Simone does in Los Angeles tonight on ABC at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching FBI, The Voice, The Resident, FBI: International, FBI: Most Wanted, and New Amsterdam.

The Rookie had a great season last year with a lot fantastic character growth. Nolan really came into his own as a police officer and is well on his way to a good career. My favorite storyline are the ones with Bradford and Chen. Those two need to be an actual couple sooner than later! I love their chemistry and think they are one of the police couples who could make it long-term. Regardless of which path the story takes, I know that I will be tuned in every week.

On tonight’s episode “Double Down,” Officer John Nolan’s is once again face-to-face with serial killer Rosalind, and she wants him to know she’s not done with him yet. Meanwhile, officers Bradford and Chen work undercover with Detective Lopez and the Las Vegas Police Department to arrest leaders of a major criminal enterprise.

To see how John handles his newest run in with Rosalind, tune in to ABC at 10/9c.

It is good to be back! What a strange and messy world we’ve been living in since March, but TV is starting to return, and that means we will be popping in when we can to let you know what we are watching and what you should check out. Hope you are all doing well and staying healthy.

Tonight is the series premiere of Big Sky on ABC, and I am excited for many reasons. First, I have loved watching Ryan Phillippe ever since he starred in the movie Playing by Heart back in 1998. (Yes, I know I’m old.) He was such a sweetheart in that movie, and his eyes won me over. Secondly, a suspense-filled thriller is always welcome on my television viewing list, especially when it seems like it will be an edge-of-your-seat kind of ride.

The show follows Cody Hoyt, a private detective who gets drawn into a mysterious case of missing women after they start to investigate the disappearance of two women, only to discover that there are many more women who have disappeared and nothing is as it seems. Beside Ryan Phillippe, it also stars John Carol Lynch (Body of Proof, Close to Home, K-Ville), Katheryn Winnick (Vikings, Bones), Kylie Bunbury (Pitch, Brave New World), Jade Pettyjohn (Little Fires Everywhere), Brian Geraghty (Chicago PD, Briarpatch, The Fugitive), Natalie Alyn Lind (The Gifted), Dedee Pfeiffer (For Your Love), Jesse James Keitel, & Valerie Mahaffey.

On tonight’s episode, “Pilot,” while on a road trip to visit her boyfriend in Montana, Danielle Sullivan and her sister Grace are kidnapped by a truck driver on a remote part of the highway, setting off a chain of events that leads private detectives Cody Hoyt and Cassie Dewell to team up with Cody’s estranged wife and ex-cop, Jenny Hoyt, to search for the sisters. But when the investigators discover these are not the only girls who have disappeared in the area, it’s clear that they’ve stumbled onto something much bigger than them all.

To see if this new series draws you in to the mystery as much as it has me, tune in to ABC at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching FBI, FBI: Most Wanted, NCIS, The Voice, NEXT, This Is Us, Chopped, and Transplant.

I’m so excited because tonight’s the premiere of both The Goldbergs and The Conners. (There’s also the premiere of black-ish to complete ABC’s premiere night, but I’m not watching it.)

To start off, we get a double episode of The Goldbergs, and they’re doing it in style, taking on the classic 1980s movie Airplane with an episode titled…well…”Airplane!” Beverly surprises the family with an end-of-summer vacation to Miami with the flight down resembling the classic film, and Geoff accidentally spills to Erica the real reason for the trip. Then in “The Prettiest Boy in School,” Adam, now a senior, returns to William Penn Academy as he wrestles with the fact that he is a cool kid and no longer a nerd while his original friend group isn’t as lucky. Meanwhile, Beverly attempts to have a more grown-up relationship with Erica and Barry before they head back to college.

It’s hard to imagine Adam as A) a senior and B) a cool kid. LOL So I can’t wait to see that!

Then on The Conners’ premiere episode, “Keep on Truckin’ Six Feet Apart,” the Conners are back and dealing with the pandemic, and life’s financial troubles loom over the family. Dan is still trying to catch up on back-mortgage payments and avoid a potential eviction, while the Lunch Box is closed for everything but takeout and delivery. Becky and Darlene are both forced to search for additional income at the newly reopened Wellman Plastics plant. Danny Trejo, Katey Segal, & Rene Rosado guest star.

Not all shows are going to include real-life problems like the pandemic into them, but we’ve seen how The Conners can do that, so this will be interesting! Especially given some of the things I’ve read about this season! 😉

Don’t miss ABC’s comedy premieres tonight starting at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching Devils, The Amazing Race, Coroner, & Guy’s Grocery Games.

Welcome back to our Remote posts! It’s been a very long almost 5 months with only a handful of posts in that time! Darn Rona, anyway! For now, it’s going to be hit or miss, depending on when we feel like posting, and I’m starting it off with tonight’s series premiere of Supermarket Sweep.

When I first heard ABC was doing a reboot of this fun gameshow, I couldn’t have been more excited. I didn’t watch the original, even on reruns, but I did watch the show in the 90s and early 2000s, and I loved it. The show follows three teams of two, still in the iconic colorful sweatshirts, as they compete against one another using their grocery shopping skills and knowledge of merchandise. They’re competing for the chance to become the winning duo to play in the “Super Sweep,” a race against the clock to find five products in order to win $100,000. This time around, comedienne/actress Leslie Jones is host, and she should bring fantastic energy to the show, especially since I read she’s been a longtime fan too.

On tonight’s premiere, “Give Me the Roses, Richard!” Leslie is joined by teams from Canada/Washington, North Carolina, Missouri/Arkansas, Texas/Louisiana, California, and California/Philippines.

Find out who takes home the prize tonight on ABC at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, Worst Cooks in America, Card Sharks, & Halloween Freakshow Cakes.
