thewalkingdead1023smallTonight, The Walking Dead returns to finally answer the question that’s on everyone’s minds… Who was at the receiving end of Lucille’s brutal blows?! As the sixth season came to an end, Negan and his Saviors had corralled Rick and the gang into a trap. Negan forced his captives to get on their knees in a line, and then he told them he was going to beat one of them to death with his barbed-wire covered baseball bat. As the season faded out we could hear the gruesome attack but it wasn’t revealed who the victim was. Which of the eleven—Glenn, Maggie, Daryl, Rick, Abraham, Carl, Michonne, Rosita, Sasha, Aaron, or Eugene—was brutally murdered?!

I was really upset when they left us hanging at the end of last season, but even at that point the writers didn’t know which character was going to get killed. And word is that in order to help prevent tonight’s huge reveal from getting spoiled, they actually filmed all 11 death scenes! I can’t wait for tonight’s episode, and I’m hoping one of my favorites isn’t the one whose brains Negan is wiping off of Lucille. I’m really interested to see the aftermath and how long the group will play by Negan’s rules before they ultimately revolt against him – and are hopefully more successful the second time around.

On tonight’s premiere, “The Day Will Come When You Won’t Be,” Negan’s actions will haunt the surviving members of Rick’s group forever.

To see who survives tonight, tune in to AMC at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Quantico, Madam Secretary, Bob’s Burgers, The Simpsons, Son of Zorn, Family Guy, The Last Man on Earth, Worst Bakers in America, The Strain, Eyewitness, and Westworld.

crazyexgirlfriend1021smallTonight, The CW’s musical comedy, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, returns for its second season. When the first season left off, Paula was extremely disappointed that Rebecca had lied to her about sleeping with Greg – especially with everything she had done to help Rebecca try to win over Josh. Rebecca asked Greg to go with her to Josh’s sister’s wedding (ignoring the fact that she had been uninvited). At the wedding, Josh told Rebecca she looked beautiful but then warned her about Greg’s dark side. Greg’s insecurity and his plentiful drinking at the wedding caused him to misread some glances between Rebecca and Josh, and he thought Rebecca was planning to break up with him. Josh went home to sleep it off. Meanwhile Valencia tried to pressure Josh to propose at the wedding, but when she realized he was still into Rebecca, she called it quits. Outside, Josh confessed his love for Rebecca, and they finally kissed. Rebecca was so happy that she accidentally dropped her guard and told Josh the stalkery truth about her move to West Covina – and he looked totally freaked out.

Will Josh still feel the same about Rebecca now that he knows the truth? How will Greg react when he hears about Rebecca kissing (and possibly sleeping with) Josh? Who will Rebecca choose? And will Paula ever forgive Rebecca? I’m sure her getting together with Josh would surely help in that matter! I’m looking forward to another fun-filled season of wacky antics and witty songs.

On tonight’s premiere, “Where Is Josh’s Friend?” Rebecca is convinced that Josh is in love with her, and Greg is nowhere to be found. Meanwhile, Paula comes to terms with what drove her obsession with Rebecca’s love life; and Darryl and White Josh try to navigate their new relationship.

Find out what’s happening with Rebecca’s love life tonight on The CW at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Black Mirror, MacGyver, Hamilton’s America, Z Nation, Van Helsing, and Quarry.

rockyhorrorsmallTonight, FOX airs its reimagining of the cult-classic 1975 film The Rocky Horror Picture Show. The new 2-hour event musical, The Rocky Horror Picture Show: Let’s Do the Time Warp Again, is directed by legend Kenny Ortega (High School Musical, Newsies). When their car breaks down, straight-laced engaged couple Janet Weiss (Victoria Justice, Victorious) and Brad Majors (Ryan McCartan, Liv and Maddie) find their way to a mysterious castle, where they are welcomed in by an odd hunchbacked man name Riff-Raff (Reeve Carney, Penny Dreadful). They soon meet the master of the house—the sexually-ambiguous and flirtatious mad scientist Dr. Frank-N-Furter (Laverne Cox, Orange Is the New Black), who’s hosting a huge party to unveil his latest creation, Rocky Horror (Staz Nair, Game of Thrones)—a young Adonis built for his pleasure. And this is just the start of the crazy, debaucherous night that lies ahead for Brad and Janet as they meet the rest of the Transylvanians and discover their other-worldly plans. There’s singing, dancing, and all kinds of craziness!

The production also stars original Frank-N-Furter Tim Curry as the Criminologist Narrator, Christina Milian (Grandfathered) as maid Magenta, Annaleigh Ashford (Masters of Sex) as groupie Columbia, Adam Lambert as ex-delivery boy Eddie, Ben Vereen as rival scientist Dr. Everett Scott, and Ivy Levan as Usherette.

It seems like every network is doing live musical productions these days, so I find it a bit odd that FOX has decided to go the pre-recorded route, but I’m very curious to see this new take on this cult classic, especially with an actual transgender actress playing the lead transsexual character. Will a certain element of the show be lost with this casting, or will this version feel like something completely fresh and new? It’s great to see that Tim Curry is a part of this latest take on the phenomenon he helped to create. I can’t wait to do the time warp again tonight!

Do the time warp again tonight on FOX at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Grey’s Anatomy, Superstore, The Good Place, The Blacklist, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, 60 Days In, and Falling Water.

brooklyn991018smallEvery season on Brooklyn Nine-Nine, we get a new Halloween episode. They’re a lot of fun because it’s always some sort of competition. In season one, Jake bet Holt he could “steal” his Medal of Valor. In season two, it was Captain Holt’s watch. Last year, it was team vs team, as they competed to see who could first get to a crown held under lock and key in an interrogation room. So what will they come up with this season? I have no idea, but I do know it’s going to be funny!

On tonight’s episode, “Halloween IV,” it’s Halloween in the Nine-Nine, which can only mean one thing: heist time. This year, the squad members pull out all the stops in their quest to win the new defending title of “Ultimate Detective Slash Genius.” Lines are drawn and plans are made, but there can only be one reigning champion.

See who wins bragging rights tonight on FOX at 8/7c.

tbbt1017smallLast week on The Big Bang Theory, Amy’s apartment flooded, and Penny suggested she and Leonard stay in her apartment while Amy moves into Sheldon and Leonard’s apartment with Sheldon. It took some convincing – where Leonard told him he could count it as a scientific experiment – but Sheldon finally agreed, although he decided that, to be in neutral territory, he and Amy would stay in Penny’s apartment instead. After words of wisdom from their friends and a proposal from Amy that all sex stays off the table (much to Sheldon’s relief), they (temporarily) moved in together. Of course, it wasn’t that easy. Sheldon had to put up with Amy coughing up phlegm in the bathroom while brushing her teeth, and in no surprise, Sheldon was kind of a bear to live with… He snores – bad – and ended up sleep-pushing Amy off the bed. The next day, Sheldon said he’d slept like a baby, while Amy was ready to quit, but they traded barbs and burns back and forth, which actually turned them on. So silly!

And can we talk about how weird Raj is? LOL He went with Howard and Bernie to her OB-GYN appointment, which was strange enough, but then he made a comment about how perfect Bernie’s cervix is, which took it over-the-top weird. Annnnnnd he’s the only one of the three who knows the sex of the baby because his father’s a gynecologist and he saw the sex on the ultrasound. LMAO

On tonight’s episode, “The Hot Tub Contamination,” Leonard and Penny must separate a quarreling Sheldon and Amy when their cohabitation does not go as planned, and Sheldon threatens to break off their relationship when Amy refuses to adhere to the bathroom schedule. Also, Howard and Bernadette find unexpected guests at their house when they decide to stay home from a planned vacation.

Find out who the unexpected guests are tonight on CBS at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Cake Wars, Kevin Can Wait, 2 Broke Girls, Halloween Baking Championship, Scorpion, & Conviction.
