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!

Jenny’s Choice

macgyver923smallThis season, I was looking forward to two new shows in particular: Lethal Weapon, which everyone seems to have enjoyed more than they thought they would…and the other? Tonight’s premiere of MacGyver. I was a big fan when I caught the original series on repeats years ago, and Lucas Till is adorable. So I had high hopes – and after seeing a screener for the first episode a couple of weeks ago, I have to say I wasn’t disappointed in the least. In case you don’t know…

Angus “Mac” MacGyver is a young special agent in a clandestine organization within the US government, and his specialty is basically being able to do almost anything with almost nothing – like disarming a bomb with nothing but a paperclip. In the original series, MacGyver is a bit older and has been around a while. So this iteration is us seeing Mac in his younger years, before he turns into the MacGyver from the original series. In this one, Mac works with former CIA agent Jack Dalton (George Eads, CSI) and Riley Davis (Tristin Mays), a computer hacker they “break out” of jail to help with their case but who ends up an integral member of the team. Their boss Patricia Thornton is played by Sandrine Holt, and Mac’s roommate, Wilt Bozer, who doesn’t know what Mac really does, is played by Justin Hires (from TV’s failed Rush Hour drama).

On tonight’s episode, “The Rising,” Angus “Mac” MacGyver and Jack Dalton, special agents for the Department of External Services (DXS), join forces to recover a missing bioweapon that has the ability to destroy hundreds of thousands of people with one single drop.

Meet Mac, Jack, and Riley tonight on CBS at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Hell’s Kitchen, Last Man Standing, Hawaii Five-0, Blue Bloods, & Van Helsing.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 9/22/16

Posted on September 22, 2016 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 #1

pitch922smallTonight, FOX kicks off the new drama series Pitch. From a young age, aspiring baseball pitcher Ginny Baker (Kylie Bunbury, Under the Dome) was trained by her father (Michael Beach, Sons of Anarchy), and she eventually made it into the minor leagues. Now her big day has come – she’s been called up by the San Diego Padres, making her the first woman to play Major League Baseball. Suddenly thrown into the limelight, Ginny must prove herself to the fans and her own teammates, especially team captain Mike Lawson (Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Franklin & Bash). The rest of the main characters include team manager Al Luongo (Dan Lauria, The Wonder Years), general manager Oscar Arguella (Mark Consuelos, All My Children), Ginny’s agent/friend Amelia Slater (Ali Larter, Heroes), center fielder/minor league friend Blip Sanders (Mo McRae, Sons of Anarchy), and his wife Evelyn (Meagan Holder, You Again).

I got a chance to see tonight’s pilot during a screening/Q&A with the cast at this summer’s ATX Television Festival. It’s a really entertaining and inspiring story. Since the series is working closely with MLB, they will be using real team names and locations, which adds a nice layer of authenticity to what’s happening in the series. It seems a bit odd that the series starts right as Ginny starts in the majors rather than leading up to this moment over the course of the series. But I’m looking forward to seeing what kind of dramatic stories they plan to tell.

On tonight’s premiere, “Pilot,” a young pitcher adjusts to life in the spotlight after making history as the first woman to play Major League Baseball.

Play catch with Ginny tonight on FOX at 8:59/7:59c.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 9/21/16

Posted on September 21, 2016 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 #1

speechless921smallTonight, ABC’s hilarious Wednesday night comedy line-up returns, but with a couple changes. One of these is the addition of the hilarious and heartfelt new comedy Speechless. Maya DiMeo (Minnie Driver, About a Boy) is a mom on a constant mission to find the best education/care possible for eldest son, JJ, who has cerebral palsy, is in a wheelchair, and can’t speak. Being an aggressive advocate to help JJ find his “voice” means constantly uprooting the family every time Maya finds the tiniest flaw in care or imagined non-PC slight or mistreatment to be outraged about. This constant moving is starting to wear down on husband Jimmy (John Ross Bowie, The Big Bang Theory) and other kids, Ray (Mason Cook, Legends) and Dylan (Kyla Kennedy, The Walking Dead), who’d like a bit of stability and to feel like their opinions also matter. As the series opens, the family moves once again – this time into the junkiest house in a neighborhood with a great school that will provide a full-time aide for JJ. However, it isn’t long before Maya starts finding flaws in the situation. The series also stars Cedric Yarbrough (Reno 911!).

I really enjoyed tonight’s premiere – it is one of my favorite new comedies of the fall. This series should fit well with the other family comedies in ABC’s stable, as it has the network’s trademark blend of humor and heart. While the series finds a lot of humor in situations surrounding JJ’s disability, it certainly doesn’t make fun of the disabled. It’s great to see an underrepresented demographic represented on TV. The cast is really talented, especially the young actor playing JJ, who himself has a less severe form cerebral palsy. My only concern about the show is how aggressive and annoying Maya gets in the premiere, but I suspect that character will loosen up pretty quickly over the course of the season.

On tonight’s premiere, “P-I-PILOT,” a mom is driven to do what’s best for her family in this sitcom, which begins with the DiMeos moving yet again, enrolling the kids in a new school and searching for the right caregiver to give JJ, her eldest son with special needs, his voice.

Move with the DiMeos tonight on ABC at 8:30/7:30c.
