Kyle’s Choice

thegoodwife104smallI’m excited for the return of The Good Wife tonight. When we left off last season, Kalinda met with Lester, Lemond Bishop’s lawyer, and threatened to release information she had on him if he didn’t leave Alicia and the others alone. Meanwhile, Peter got word that the Democratic National Committee wanted him to run for president in order, with the ultimate goal of him becoming the top contender for VP. This news excited Zach and Eli, but Alicia and Grace weren’t too thrilled. And elsewhere, when Diane, Cary, and David Lee discovered that Louis Canning’s wife was working at their firm under her maiden name, they immediately fired her. Louis then stormed into their office threatening to burn their practice to the ground. The season ended with Louis at Alicia’s door, asking her if she wanted to partner with him.

Will Alicia take Louis up on his offer? Will he really try to destroy the firm that fired his wife? How will this season play out now that Alicia is on her own? Will we see her going up against her former partners in cases, or will she once again try to join them? And what about Peter’s political aspirations? Will they finally cause Alicia and Peter to publicly dissolve their relationship?

On tonight’s episode, “Bond,” Alicia attempts to revive her struggling law career by representing arrestees seeking release on bail in bond court. There, she meets attorney Lucca Quinn, who competes for her clients. Meanwhile, Peter brings in a national strategist to help with his presidential campaign, which creates an interesting dynamic with Eli in the process.

Check out the season premiere tonight on CBS at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Madam Secretary, Once Upon a Time, Blood & Oil, Quantico, The Simpsons, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Family Guy, The Last Man on Earth, The Strain, Fear the Walking Dead, The Leftovers, Project Greenlight, Homeland, and The Affair.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 10/2/15

Posted on October 2, 2015 by and

Have you ever been at a loss as to what to watch? Too many shows to pick from? We’re here to give you our opinions on what we feel is worth watching. Check it out and then let us know in the comments below what you’re choosing for tonight!

Kyle’s Choice

drken102smallTonight, Ken Jeong (Community) takes on his first starring sitcom role in the new series Dr. Ken. While Dr. Ken Park is a great physician, he is completely oblivious to his horrible bedside manner. The series is half office comedy/half family sitcom, following Ken as he tries to balance his work and family lives. There’s always some crazy patient or office politics to deal with at work with coworkers Damona (Tisha Campbell-Martin), Clark (Jonathan Slavin, Better Off Ted), Julie (Kate Simses, Mixology), and boss Pat (Dave Foley, NewsRadio). And when Ken heads home, teenage daughter Molly (Krista Marie Yu, The Thundermans) and nerdy son Dave (Albert Tsai, Trophy Wife) keep him busy – but therapist wife Allison (Suzy Nakamura, Go On) is also there to help keep him centered.

Based on tonight’s pilot, I can’t say that this is a show that I’ll be checking out every week. However, those looking for another TGIF-style family sitcom to kick off the weekend, this may be what the doctor ordered. Ken Jeong’s character is a bit more subdued from his usual films and TV roles, but those who enjoy his style of humor will probably like this role as well.

On tonight’s premiere, “Pilot,” Ken needs a therapy session with Allison when he tires of his patients’ complaints; and Molly’s driving test makes her dad nervous that she just might pass.

Meet Dr. Ken and his family tonight on ABC at 8:31/7:31c.

I’ll be watching/recording The Amazing Race, Z Nation, and Continuum.
