This season of The Goldbergs is off to a great start. It always amazes me how many of the crazy events we see on the show happened in real life to series creator Adam Goldberg – and that he’s willing to show us the awkward video proof at the end of the episode! Last week, Adam wanted a robot, but his father refused to buy one. So he and Murray tried building one from junk they found around the house, but this led to a big fight between them, and in the end Murray gave in and bought Adam the robot. Meanwhile, Barry accidentally taped over the video of his 5th birthday but made his mother believe she was one who did it. Beverly was crushed and devastated and was constantly blaming herself for the mistake. The guilt (and pressure from his siblings) ultimately got to be too much for Barry and he confessed the truth.
The Goldbergs are just a really fun family to hang out with every week, and watching their exploits each Wednesday night always gives me a great sense of nostalgia for my own childhood. I love the 80s throwback setting and pop culture references, the ridiculous situations, and the heartfelt family moments. I’m so glad this show (and the rest of my ABC Wednesday comedy lineup) are back!
On tonight’s episode, “I Caddyshacked the Pool,” Adam, who’s embarrassed by his changing body, is desperate to get out of swimming in gym class; and Erica tries to create her identity at school by starting a club that, to her dismay, Barry joins.
Find out if Adam can get out of swimming tonight on ABC at 8:30/7:30c.
I’ll also be watching/recording Survivor, Criminal Minds, Code Black, The Middle, Modern Family, black-ish, Empire, Arrow, Supernatural, Young & Hungry, American Horror Story: Hotel, The League, You’re the Worst, Worst Cooks in America, and Moonbeam City.

Tonight is the season premiere of Chicago Fire, and after the cliffhanger of last season, we’re going to hit the ground running. Last season, Casey was undercover after Voight (from Chicago PD) and his team came to ask for his help in getting an inside track to the club owner that Casey had been working for, since they suspected him of being involved in human trafficking. But when we left off, a pregnant Dawson went to Casey’s house to tell him, only to find Nadia there, dead, and Casey missing. Obviously Dawson being pregnant will affect her ability to be a firefighter. The only solution I can see is that she becomes a paramedic again. I don’t know how long she’d be able to work at that in real life. On the show? Who knows. I’ve seen tonight’s premiere, so I know how and when they rescue Casey (cause you KNOW they’re going to), and I can tell you there’s a lot of surprises in store for him and the rest of the firehouse.
On tonight’s episode, “Let It Burn,†during an undercover operation, Lt. Casey lands in very dangerous territory; Dawson’s suspicions are confirmed; a new candidate (Steven R. McQueen, The Vampire Diaries) makes an unusual first impression; a protest hinders firefighters who are trying to battle a blaze.
Meet the new candidate tonight and see Casey’s rescue tonight on NBC at 10/9c.
I’ll also be watching/DVRing Grandfathered, MasterChef Canada, NCIS, Married at First Sight: The First Year, NCIS: NOLA, Chopped, & Limitless.

Tonight, Fargo returns to FX for the start of a whole new season/story, this time set in 1979. In the first season, Lou Solverson referred to a case he had worked on decades earlier in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. This season, we head back to when Solverson (Patrick Wilson, A Gifted Man) was a young State Police Officer reporting to his father-in-law, Sheriff Hank Larsson (Ted Danson, CSI), as he looks into a case involving beautician Peggy Blumquist (Kirsten Dunst, Spider-Man) and her butcher’s assistant husband Ed (Jesse Plemons, Breaking Bad). Along the way, they cross paths with Fargo’s local crime family, the Gerhardts – matriarch Floyd (Jean Smart, 24) and her three sons Dodd (Jeffrey Donovan, Burn Notice), Bear (Angus Sampson, Mad Max: Fury Road), and Rye (Kieran Culkin, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World) – as well as the local representative of the Kansas City crime syndicate Joe Bulo (Brad Garrett, Everybody Loves Raymond) and his number two, Mike Milligan (Bokeem Woodbine, Riddick). Nick Offerman (Parks and Recreation) also stars as town lawyer/con artist Karl Weathers.
I loved the first season of Fargo. It was one of my favorite shows of last year. I loved the way it blended of wacky characters and situations with extremely serious, heart-pounding drama and mystery. I can’t wait to re-enter this world tonight!
On tonight’s premiere, “Waiting for Dutch,” a surprising event at a diner disrupts the citizens of a small Minnesota town.
See what event causes a ruckus tonight on FX at 10/9c.
I’ll also be watching/recording The Big Bang Theory, Life in Pieces, Castle, Blindspot, Gotham, Minority Report, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Jane the Virgin, Switched at Birth, Awkward., and Faking It.

Last season, Undateable did a special live episode, which must have done pretty well, as that the series was renewed for an all-live third season, which premieres tonight. The last time a TV show tried to do this was back in 1992, when the Fox comedy Roc went live for its second season. I like the unpredictable nature of live TV, and I’m looking forward to seeing how the show changes with this new format. And I’ll be anxiously watching for flubbed lines and misbehaving props.
For last year’s one-off special, they pulled in a lot of familiar faces from series creator Bill Lawrence’s previous programs. However, with a full season of episodes ahead, I don’t think they can rely on that kind of all-in-one-episode kind of stunt casting every week. Though, I’m sure we can expect to see some fun guest stars throughout the season.
On tonight’s double-length premiere, “A Will They Walks Into a Bar/A Won’t They Walks Into a Bar,” Danny interferes as Justin and Candace plan on taking things to the next level. Also: Burski surprises the gang with an announcement; and Leslie sets out to reinvent her look. Danny continues to interfere when Justin and Candace consider taking things to the next level. Meanwhile, the gang reacts to Burski’s surprise announcement, and Leslie tries to reinvent her look.
See the premiere of the all-live season tonight on NBC at 8/7c.
I’ll also be watching/recording The Amazing Race, Dr. Ken, Z Nation, and Continuum.
