zoo630smallI’m so excited about tonight! CBS’s latest thriller, Zoo, starts tonight. Based on the book by James Patterson, the show is about a wave of violent animal attacks against humans all over the globe. Jackson Oz — a young renegade American zoologist, played by James Wolk — begins to see a link between the animal attacks and his late father’s dubious theories about looming threats to humans. Kristen Connolly stars as L.A. news reporter Jamie Campbell, while Billy Burke plays Mitch Morgan, off-kilter veterinarian. Finally, Nora Arnezeder stars as Chloe Tousignant, a French investigator who meets Oz in Africa. As the assaults occurring worldwide become more cunning, coordinated, and ferocious, Oz and the others are thrust into the race to unlock the mystery of the pandemic before there’s no place left for people to hide.

On tonight’s episode, “First Blood,” Jackson Oz, an American ex-pat safari guide living in Africa, discovers a link between strange animal attacks on people occurring around the world and his late father’s controversial theories about an impending threat to the human race. Meanwhile, journalist Jamie Campbell and veterinary pathologist Mitch Morgan team up to investigate similar abnormal animal behavior in Los Angeles.

Check out this fun thriller tonight on CBS at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing FIFA Women’s World Cup, America’s Got Talent, Chrisley Knows Best, The Little Couple, I Can Do That, Rizzoli & Isles, Stitchers, Junk Food Flip, Chopped, Clipped, Royal Pains, & Scream.

cakewarssmallI love all the “wars” they have on Food Network (Halloween Wars is probably my favorite), so I’m very happy about tonight’s premiere of Cake Wars (not to be mistaken for Cupcake Wars). Hosted by Jonathan Bennett, the show will feature four expert bakers creating an elaborate cake in a grueling competition. The winner’s cake will be the star of a major event and will earn them the $10,000 prize. Master pastry chefs Waylynn Lucas and Ron Ben-Israel will judge.

On tonight’s episode, “The Simpsons,” one of the biggest television families ever is airdropping into Cake Wars — The Simpsons. They’re throwing a huge bash to celebrate their success and one of our cake makers will have their winning creation front and center at the event — and walk out $10,000 richer. Executive Producer of The Simpsons Matt Selman will help determine which baker wins and which will be left saying “D’oh!?”

See whose cake wins the top spot tonight on Food Network at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing American Ninja Warrior, So You Think You Can Dance, Major Crimes, Guilty Pleasures, Murder in the First, & Top 5 Restaurants.

janethevirgin119smallTonight, the delightful—and Golden Globe-winning—CW comedy Jane the Virgin returns from its hiatus. When we last left off, we discovered that Petra was not who she said she was and that she had assumed identity of a dead woman. Also, Michael discovered a secret passage in the hotel room, which led to an underground tunnel; Rogelio’s rival Esteban took home the Best Actor prize at the Paloma Awards; and Xo’s idol gave her some encouragement to pursue her dreams of becoming a pop star (however, she doesn’t know it was Rogelio who set this conversation up). But the biggest shocker was when supposedly wheelchair-bound Magda stood up and pushed Alba down the stairway.

Is Alba okay? Will the others discover the truth about Magda, and does Petra even know the truth about her mother’s condition? What is Madga’s ultimate plan—is she the one behind the Sin Rostro case? Will Michael ever solve that case, and what does this secret tunnel have to do with it? Will Xo and Rogelio get back together? This show moves a mile a minute, and each episode brings new, entertaining twists and turns!

On tonight’s episode, “Chapter Ten,” a hurricane hits town, forcing Jane to stay at the Marbella. Meanwhile, Rogelio comforts Xo when he learns about Alba’s condition; Rafael gets his old job back and must make a tough call regarding staff layoffs; and Michael tries to assist Alba quietly.

Find out what decision Raael makes and what the outcome in when Rogelio confronts Xo tonight on The CW at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Castle, Gotham, Sleepy Hollow, Chasing Life, Eye Candy, and The Venture Bros.

eyecandy112smallI don’t ever watch shows on MTV—they just aren’t my types of shows. But when I was writing up the weekly schedule on Saturday, the premise for their newest, Eye Candy, made me sit up and take notice. Based on the best-selling book of the same name by R.L. Stine (who also wrote the “Goosebumps” books), this show is about Lindy, a 21-year-old hacker/tech genius who is able to see clues and connections in the digital world that others can’t. Her roommate persuades her to try online dating, and when she meets one man, she starts to suspect that he’s a deadly cyber stalker. She ends up teaming up with the cyber-crimes unit and some hacker friends to help solve a potential serial killer in Manhattan.

When I first read about it, all I suddenly wanted was Jake 2.0 back. Why that reminded me of that show, I don’t know. LOL Still, Eye Candy (which totally sounds misleading for what the show is about…) looks like it’ll be a great show, so I have my fingers crossed going into tonight’s premiere. The show stars Victoria Justice, Casey Deidrick, Harvey Guillen, John Garet Stoker, & Kiersey Clemons.

On tonight’s episode, “K3U,” in New York to find her abducted sister, a brilliant but shy hacker is urged to try a dating app, where she meets a deadly stalker, only she isn’t sure which date it is, so she reluctantly turns to her ex-boyfriend, who broke her heart, for help.

To see how the series starts, tune in to MTV at 10/9c.
