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
Tonight, NBC kicks off the new spy thriller, Allegiance. Rookie CIA analyst Alex O’Connor (Gavin Stenhouse) is sent from DC to New York City to assess an SBR (formerly KGB) asset who wants to defect to the US. However, Alex doesn’t know that his parents, Katya (Hope Davis, The Newsroom) and Mark (Scott Cohen, Necessary Roughness), and sister Natalie (Margarita Levieva, Revenge) are part of a Russian sleeper cell. The O’Connors’ handler Victor (Morgan Spector, Person of Interest, Boardwalk Empire) demands that they recruit their son as a spy before his investigation uncovers the SBR’s darkest secrets. However, Katya doesn’t want to lose any more of her children to the Russians. The series also stars Kenneth Choi (Sons of Anarchy, Ironside) as Alex’s mentor.
One can’t help but compare this show to The Americans. While they do share some similarities, they are still very different shows, and this one takes place in the present. I really enjoyed tonight’s premiere and am looking forward to seeing how this story unfolds. Can the O’Connors prevent the rest of their children from being drafted into the SBR? Will Alex discover the truth about his family? And if so, would he choose family or country?
Meet the new spy family tonight on NBC at 10/9c.
I’ll also be watching/recording The Big Bang Theory, Elementary, Grey’s Anatomy, How to Get Away With Murder, The Blacklist, Backstrom, Archer, Wizard Wars, and Fortitude.
