legends112smallTonight, Legends returns to TNT for the start of its second season, and there have been a lot of changes to the show. The only returning regular cast member from the first season is star Sean Bean (that’s a first – usually he’s the only one to die!). Martin is on the run, but he has changed his identity so many times that even he is unsure of his true identity. Is he FBI Agent Martin Odum, the man who killed the FBI director? Or is his true identity that of Iraq vet John Cameron? Or maybe he’s really a Russian gangster named Dmitry Petrovich? While Martin is on a mission to figure out who he really is – and to keep away from the various people hunting down his many personas for different reasons – he’s got some help from his former FBI boss Tony Rice (guest star Morris Chestnut), who is enlisting a new agent (Kelly Overton) to help is old friend John Cameron.

I’m interested to see how the show reinvents itself in this second season, how long Morris Chestnut sticks around (after all, he does have his own show, Rosewood), and if we’ll learn whatever happened to Martin’s old support team. Will we learn about even more of Martin’s past legends, and will he ever figure out his true identity?

On tonight’s premiere, “The Legend of Dmitry Petrovich,” Martin Odum is hiding out in present-day London, searching for clues about his identity with help from a CIA agent (Kelly Overton). Elsewhere, an investigation is launched into a Russian gangster.

Meet the new players tonight on TNT at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Supergirl, Blindspot, Gotham, Minority Report, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Jane the Virgin, Fargo, Major Crimes, Awkward., and Faking It.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 11/1/15

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

thewalkingdead111smallIt was another amazing episode of The Walking Dead last Sunday, one that kicked off a huge debate as to whether or not one of the series’ original characters is actually dead. The episode gave us the point of view of Rick and his group just after the horn sounded as the Alexandria massacre was taking place. Rick headed off on his own to get the RV so he could try to divert the walkers from Alexandria. This left Glenn and Michonne to lead the rest of the Alexandrians to safety. As he left, Rick warned his friends to not be dragged down by these people and abandon them if they had to in order to survive.

While trying to outrun the walkers, quite a few members of this under-experienced group ended up dead. By the end of the episode, Glenn and Nicholas found themselves in an alleyway full of walkers, standing on top of a dumpster with no way out. Nicholas decided he couldn’t take any more and shot himself in the head, knocking Glenn and himself into the sea of walkers. We then saw Glenn screaming as the walkers seemingly pulled out his guts – or did Nicholas fall on top of him, and they were actually tearing into him instead? (fingers crossed!)

The episode ended with Rick making it to the RV, but he had trouble getting it started. And to make things worse, the Wolves showed up, but he managed to get a gun and spray bullets all along the side of the RV, taking them out. He continued to struggle with the RV, but the gunfire had attracted a large horde of walkers, who were quickly surrounding the vehicle.

Is Glenn really dead? If not, how the heck is he going to get out of the situation he’s in? The same goes for Rick –will Daryl show up to somehow distract the walkers so he can get the RV out of there? And what’s with his hand? It seemed badly injured. Is it infected? Will Rick need to chop off his hand (or more) in order to stay alive? Or is his situation even worse?

It was just announced the other day that The Walking Dead has been picked up for a seventh season – which is a no-brainer (no pun intended) – so fans can relax, knowing there’s a lot more to come.

On tonight’s 90-minute episode, “Here’s Not Here,” a new face appears; trust issues form.

I’ll also be watching/recording Madam Secretary, The Good Wife, Once Upon a Time, Quantico, The Librarians, Talking Dead, The Leftovers, Project Greenlight, and Homeland.

Saturday on TV – 10/31/15

Saturday is the series premiere of Ash vs Evil Dead on Starz at 9/8c. This is the long-awaited follow-up to the classic horror film franchise The Evil Dead. Bruce Campbell reprises his role as Ash, the stock boy, aging lothario and chainsaw-handed monster hunter who has spent the last 30 years avoiding responsibility, maturity and the terrors of the Evil Dead. When a Deadite plague threatens to destroy all of mankind, Ash is finally forced to face his demons -personal and literal. Destiny, it turns out, has no plans to release the unlikely hero from its “Evil” grip. The show also stars Dana DeLorenzo, Jill Marie Jones, Lucy Lawless, Mimi Rogers, and Ray Santiago.
