If We Controlled Your Remote… 11/1/22

The Rookie: Feds has been bringing the laughs while still providing the cases we have come to love from this franchise. Simone is the powerful female agent we didn’t know we needed but are glad she’s here. I love that on the last episode her father defended her relationship with her girlfriend. It May have been a little aggressive but I applaud the writers for taking such a clear stance on how haters need to be dealt with. If you haven’t watched this show yet then get with the program because this show is more than worth it!

On tonight’s episode, “The Reaper,” When Simone and Carter go undercover to find an international assassin known as The Reaper, a prisoner seeking bail recognizes Carter and nearly blows his cover. Laura and Brendon trace a lead on The Reaper’s assault rifle while Brendon works to heal his relationship with his father. Meanwhile, Simone’s demanding work schedule puts a strain on her relationship with Dina.

Tune into ABC at 10/9c and see if Simone can learn to balance work and personal life.

I’ll also be watching The Voice and New Amsterdam.

It has been an eventful season so far on The Rookie, and it has kept us on the edge of our seats. Rosalind locked Bailey in a steel tube under the floor of an abandoned house that was almost impossible to open without killing her. The tube was gradually filling with water, and Rosalind gave Nolan the choice to come to her to let Bailey live. Rosalind wanted Nolan to kill her and she’d spare Bailey’s life, but Nolan couldn’t do it. He was just too noble. Anticipating his Boy Scout ways, Rosalind made a backup plan and her sidekick shot her in the head as Nolan was taking her out in handcuffs. I was happy she was dead. She really doesn’t deserve anything less. Nolan felt terrible because he was sure Bailey was dead, but the team had saved her and they were reunited. All karma aside, Nolan wouldn’t be Nolan if he had shot Rosalind. Going forward, I see the writers making him struggle with his choice but he’ll come through it. He always does.

On tonight’s episode, “The Reckoning,” Officer John Nolan and a sleep-deprived Celina investigate a cash deposit linked to an old DEA case. Meanwhile, Wesley grows increasingly concerned about his deposition and is shocked when he realizes Elijah’s attorney is a familiar face from his past.

To see how this cold case pans out, tune in to ABC at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching NCIS: LA, East New York, and Halloween Wars.

Last week’s The Goldbergs was pretty funny and sweet—something the show is known for. Barry decided that since their dad was gone, he was going to be the man of the house, and that meant treating Adam like a father. Not THEIR father, mind you, since Murray was a bit of a different, uninvolved, father most of the time. Barry basically smothered him with too much attention and affection, including giving him a book about his “changing body.” It was hilarious. Erica’s story line was a little less funny but ended on a sweet note. She graduated early from school, having worked super hard to finish before the baby comes. But when all anyone could focus on was the baby and baby shower, she was sad and disappointed. In the end, when she reminded everyone, you could tell they felt bad about it, and they finally gave her the congratulations and attention she deserved.

On tonight’s episode, “Uncle-ing,” with her due date approaching, Erica is over the exhausting pregnancy and demands a “babymoon.” When things take an unforeseen turn, Geoff is tasked with producing the one person Erica needs more than anyone. Meanwhile, Adam and Barry seek out advice on “uncle-ing” from some unexpected sources.

Find out who Erica needs (my guess is Beverly…) tonight on ABC at 8:30/7:30c.

I’ll also be watching Chicago Med, Survivor, The Conners, Chicago Fire, Guy’s Ultimate Game Night, Chicago PD, & The Amazing Race.

I cannot believe we are already half way through October! 2022 has been flying by, and while I’m excited that we are moving along without too many issues, I’d like time to go a little slower, seeing as my daughter will be leaving for university in less than a year. We have so much to do to decide where she’s going, if she’s staying in Canada or going stateside, and so many other small things. Thankfully for tonight I can just sit back and watch a few of my favorite shows to try to take my mind off the upcoming decisions.

Tonight I’m recommending you watching The Neighborhood, because we all need a few more laughs in our lives. This comedy always manages to make me laugh while also giving me heartwarming feels about the family dynamics that are portrayed. Dave and Calvin’s friendship is a constant source of laughs, while Dave and Gemma’s marriage is one to aspire to. I am excited to see how the show continues as Malcolm and Marty grow into their own relationships and the families branch out. It will be hilarious and sweet to see Calvin and Tina as grandparents in the future because we all know that Tina is going to go overboard as she always does — and as she currently is simply planning the wedding!

On tonight’s episode, “Welcome to the Art of Negotiation,” when Dave is up for a promotion at work, Calvin tries to help him negotiate a raise from his penny-pinching new boss, Gregory. Also, Tina struggles with whether to share some sensitive information with Gemma.

To find out what sensitive information Tina needs to tell Gemma, tune in to CBS at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching Bob Hearts Abishola, 9-1-1, NCIS, The Voice, The Cleaning Lady, The Good Doctor, and Quantum Leap.

The season premiere of Blue Bloods last week had me on the edge of my seat! Watching Jamie get shot was terrible, but what was worse was watching Eddie beg him not to leave her — telling him to fight to stay with her. It is a rare sight to see Eddie so vulnerable, so seeing that was an interesting moment to watch. The new captain in their house doesn’t want Eddie and Jamie working at the same house, but Eddie is insistent that they are going to continue being in the same house. I’m not sure that Jamie is going to go with it, seeing as he wants to move on to different things in his career. One highlight of the episode was watching Danny, Jamie, and their nephew all work together on a case. It was nice to see them bonding.

On tonight’s episode, “First Blush,” Frank causes family tension when he announces he will not endorse Erin’s run for district attorney. Also, Danny and Baez investigate a bloody crime scene at a hotel, and Jamie begins a new job as a field intelligence sergeant that requires him to keep secrets from his family.

To see how his family handles Jamie’s new position, tune in to CBS at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching S.W.A.T. and Fire Country.
