If We Controlled Your Remote… 1/15/16

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!

Megan’s Choice

bluebloods115smallIt’s been one of those weeks where either myself or one of the kids are ill, making it an overall long and tiring week. I am looking forward to kicking back and relaxing tonight with some great television, and Blue Bloods definitely fits the bill.

Last week’s episode was a roller coaster for our favorite police family, as Frank struggled with his old partner publishing a book about the “good ol’ days,” because he felt that the book didn’t represent who he was today. Jamie and Eddie had a difference of opinion when Eddie signed them up for an undercover detail by bugging a detective nonstop, and that didn’t sit well with Jamie because he doesn’t want people thinking that he used his last name to get special treatment. Eddie explained that she doesn’t want to work the beat for the rest of her career, and they came to the conclusion that they would remain partners for now but that their future goals may find them going down separate paths.

Erin had the ultimate backbone of the episode when an investigator for her office was murdered while working on a case against a construction company with ties to the mob. All of the witnesses had mysteriously gone missing. Erin wasn’t going to let her friend die in vain, so she kept digging and discovered that it was actually the father of her ADA who’d been working with the mob – as was the ADA in proxy through his dad. In the end, Erin managed to bring everyone down, and I was impressed at how tough she was in order to solve her friend’s murder.

In my opinion, it wouldn’t necessarily be a bad thing if Jamie and Eddie went on separate career paths, because then it would it open the door for a romantic relationship between them without the issue of them being partners getting in the way. Erin has always been one of my favorite characters because she is an excellent example of strength and intelligence for a female lead, which we need on television so that this up-and-coming generation of girls can see what they could be one day. This show always manages to teach us a lesson and also remind us of the importance of family and loyalty… All things we are short of in society as a whole.

On tonight’s episode, “Cursed,” when a local mobster is gunned down in his car, Danny and Baez try to get information from the mob’s low-level errand boy they find tied up in the trunk before the gang retaliates. Also, an NYPD officer asks for a new shield number to honor her late father, but Frank is conflicted, as it’s the same number as his deceased son, Joe’s.

Find out what the Regans have to teach us this week tonight on CBS at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching MasterChef: Junior, Hell’s Kitchen, Hawaii Five-0, and Undercover Boss.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 1/14/16

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

colony114smallI am excited by wary about tonight’s premiere of Colony on USA Network. It has a great cast, an interesting premise, but I’m always leery about dramas if they aren’t procedurals, since I’m not actually sure I watch any right now… *laugh* From Carlton Cuse (Lost) and Ryan Condal (Hercules), this show centers on one family’s struggle to survive and bring liberty back to the people of an occupied Los Angeles. Josh Holloway (Lost) stars as former FBI agent Will Bowman, and Sarah Wayne Callies (The Walking Dead, Prison Break) stars as his wife, Katie. This L.A., set in the near future, is dangerous and full of divided ideologies. Those who go along with the occupation and new “order” can benefit, but others rebel and suffer the consequences. Will and Katie have to figure out how to keep their family together and safe, but things will quickly go awry. And that should make things very interesting!

I loved Josh Holloway on Intelligence. He’s sexy, so that doesn’t hurt, but he’s just fun to watch regardless. And I really loved Sarah Wayne Callies on Prison Break. So put the two of them together, and I’m more than a little excited. Add in Amanda Righetti (The Mentalist) and Peter Jacobson (House), and I’m set. It also stars Tori Kittles, Alex Neustaedter, and Gonzalo Menendez.

On tonight’s episode, “Pilot,” Will attempts a daring rescue to find his son, Katie takes a risk to help her sister, and a job opportunity for Will may divide their family.

Don’t miss the premiere tonight on USA Network at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing The Big Bang Theory, Angel from Hell, Beat Bobby Flay, & Top Chef.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 1/13/16

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

secondchance113smallTonight, FOX kicks off its latest sci-fi drama venture, Second Chance, a modern-day Frankenstein tale/cop drama/thriller. Seventy-five-year-old Jimmy Pritchard (Philip Baker Hall, Modern Family) is a former LA County Sheriff who was forced to resign decades earlier due to his part in a corruption scandal. His health is failing, and now he spends his days drinking and hitting on hired women. One day, Pritchard stumbles into a robbery at his FBI Agent son Duval’s (Tim DeKay, White Collar) home and is killed in the process. However, his death is short-lived (so-to-speak) because billionaire high-tech twins Mary (Dilshad Vadsaria, Revenge) and Otto Goodwin (Adhir Kalyan, Rules of Engagement) reanimate his body as part of their secret Lookinglass experiment. The new younger, stronger Pritchard (Rob Kazinsky, True Blood) wakes up disoriented, angry, and confused. But he soon realizes that he has a second chance on life. How will he use it? Will he fall back to his old vices? Will he try to fix his relationship with his son? Will he try to clear his name? Will he go after the people who killed him? Who can he trust? Just how far can he stretch his new abilities, and what kind of complications will arise from the reanimation process?

The series comes from executive producer/writer Rand Ravich (Life, Crisis) and Emmy Award-winning executive producer Howard Gordon (Homeland, 24). Both of these guys know how to create a good, suspenseful series! The cast also includes Vanessa Lengies (Glee) and Ciara Bravo (Red Band Society).

I enjoyed tonight’s premiere a lot more than I expected to. I had some doubts after the show went through a series of name changes, starting off as The Frankenstein Code (which I think was the best), and then it became Lookinglass before settling on its current title. The pilot establishes some interesting characters and dynamics, a nice overall mystery/conspiracy and premise, and some great action-packed moments. I’m really looking forward to checking out more.

On tonight’s premiere, “A Suitable Donor,” a disgraced former cop gets a chance at redemption after he’s resurrected by a billionaire and his bioengineer twin sister, but it’s an opportunity that may not be worth the risk.

Catch this pilot and see if it’s worth second episode tonight on FOX at 9:01/8:01c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Criminal Minds, The Middle, The Goldbergs, Modern Family, black-ish, Younger, American Horror Story: Hotel, Man Seeking Woman, and Face Off.
