Tonight, Disney Channel launches the new series Tangled: The Series, a follow-up to the hit 2010 animated feature film, with Mandy Moore (This Is Us) & Zachary Levi (Chuck) reprising their roles as Rapunzel & Eugene Fitzherbert. A couple weeks ago, Disney Channel aired an hour-long TV movie, Tangled Before Ever After, which followed the events of the film and set things up for the series. Princess Rapunzel, who had become a short-haired brunette by the end of the film, was deeply in love with Eugene but wanted to take some time to enjoy their relationship before getting married. However, her parents still wanted to keep her locked up in the castle, safe from the dangers of the world. One night she sneaked out of the castle with her lady-in-waiting, Cassandra (Eden Espinosa), and came across some magical rock spires that caused her ridiculously long blonde hair to grow back, which Rapunzel desperately tried to hide from her parents. The next day, Rapunzel’s coronation was interrupted by the rogue Lady Kane, who was out for revenge on the royal family. However, Rapunzel was able to use her extremely versatile new hair to save the day, along with help from Eugene and his frying pan and Cassandra and her sword skills.

The series looks like it will be a lot of fun, following Rapunzel, Eugene, and Cassandra as they go on new adventures, meet new characters, and encounter mystical new threats. The 2D animation style of the series is very different from that of the original film, but I found it just as delightful. I had a great time revisiting these characters in the recent TV movie, and I look forward to seeing more stories set in this world.

On tonight’s premiere, “What the Hair?!” Rapunzel and Cassandra venture out to a wizard’s cottage to find out what happened to her hair.

Catch the fun tonight on Disney Channel at 7:30/6:30c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Grimm & Sleepy Hollow.

Sleepy Hollow is starting to weave the story that will lead us to what truly evil plan Dreyfuss has planned. We’ve seen that Dreyfuss is incredibly crazy and believes in creating a new world, but now we’re learning that he’s trying to reassemble the four horsemen of the Apocalypse. I’m not sure if they are going to be able to stop this man before it’s too late, but if anyone can, it’s this new team. Crane, Jenny, and Diana all work great together. Add Alex, Jake, and Molly, and we may just have a winning combination. Speaking of Alex and Jake… I’m glad the writers have decided to have Alex realize her feelings for Jake now so that we can work towards them becoming a couple. They would be adorable as an official couple.

On tonight’s episode, “The Way of the Guns,” when a mysterious woman finds her way into the vault, the team struggles to understand who she is and with whom her allegiances lie. Meanwhile, Alex must come to terms with her complicated feelings when she finds herself in a tight spot. Can Team Witness handle what might be revealed?

Find out tonight on FOX at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching Grimm.

The new team on Sleepy Hollow is really growing on me, especially after last week’s episode. It was nice that we got to see a story line that included Jake and Alex more while also giving us a glance at the strong relationship between them. Jake risked himself to save Alex from the demon, and I was glad they both survived. Another relationship that had time to blossom last week was between Molly and Jenny. It is so nice to see Jenny helping Molly learn how to deal with her new life as a Witness.

On tonight’s episode, “Child’s Play,” when a monster appears that resembles Molly’s childhood imaginary friend, Diana realizes her daughter’s life as a Witness will be anything but normal. Meanwhile, Molly gets her chance to see the vault for the first time.

To see how Molly progresses, tune in to FOX at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching Emerald City, Grimm, and When We Rise.

Last week’s Hawaii Five-0 was a crazy emotional one. Dr. Madison Gray walked into HPD, her hands stained with blood, proclaiming she needed help. She swore her name was…well, something other than Madison Gray, that she was a tourist visiting from Wisconsin. Of course, no one (but the shrink who spent a few minutes with her and then said he thought she had multiple personalities) believed her, but things got tense when the blood tentatively came back as former FBI profiler Alicia Brown’s. Thankfully, she was alive when the team went to her house, and she confronted Gray, who finally let her persona slip only for Alicia to see. So Alicia went back to talk to her at four in the morning and nearly sliced her throat, but Gray convinced her she knew something Alicia would want to know and if she broke her out of there, she’d tell her. I assumed it was the name/location of her daughter’s killer. That’s what Steve and the team thought too, when they went to visit the prisoner who Alicia believed orchestrated her daughter’s murder – but he wouldn’t give them any information, choosing to kill himself instead. Gray drove Alicia out to a house in the middle of nowhere, and in it…she found her daughter, alive! The kidnapper nearly got to them, but they fended him off until Steve and the team arrived and killed him. Of course, by then, Gray had left…only to turn up inside Alicia’s house a few nights later with a gun. She gave it to Alicia and said things weren’t over, that she was going to make Alicia a killer, and that her daughter would only be safe if she pulled the trigger. Alicia told 911 she wanted to report a murder. The screen went black, and then we heard a gunshot.

So did Alicia really kill her? Honestly, I don’t know. I would like to think not, because Alicia just got her daughter back and a chance to really move on. But I don’t have a clue. Hopefully we’ll find out for sure tonight! (Unlike when Grover beat the crap out of his former partner in his former hometown and called the police to turn himself and the other guy in, and we never heard anything after that about any repercussions!)

On tonight’s episode, “E malama pono (Handle with Care),” McGarrett and Danny finally track down the missing uranium, which has been used to build a bomb located in the middle of the jungle. Now, they must carefully extract the unstable explosive through treacherous terrain before it detonates. Singer Darius Rucker guest stars as Desmond Abati, the bomb maker. Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith guest composed multiple cues for this episode.

See if the team can extract the bomb safely tonight on CBS at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Grimm, Last Man Standing, MacGyver, & Rosewood.

Last week’s Rosewood had some character growth, some shockers, and some bad news. The case was kind of fun. I love magic, so any time a story line is set in the world of magicians, I tend to enjoy it. Turned out the killer was a fellow magician who poisoned the victim with homemade cyanide (made from apricot pits!). The killer was “always a bridesmaid, never the bride,” or rather he was always the opening act, never the star. On the character front, there was good news and bad news. Good news? Hornstock chose not to accept a job he’d applied for as the captain in Palm Beach, which means he’s sticking around. How that’ll continue to play against current captain, Ryan Slade, I have no idea. But I kinda love Hornstock and Villa’s mom. That’s a fun situation, having your coworker/former boss in a relationship with your mom! LOL For the so-so news (depending on your “shipper” stance…), Rosie spent the episode vetting Adrian as a match for Villa. In the end, Rosie has so far given Adrian a thumbs-up, but for some reason, Villa is still waffling a bit. Adrian told her he wasn’t going anywhere, which makes me sad, but whatever… Now for the bad news… The doctor told Rosie that the bender he went on after the lying, thieving witch left did more damage to his body than he thought. He was told to gather his family because he would need them.

Eek! So what did Rosewood do to his body/heart?? Will it serve to bring him and Villa closer or will he push that much harder to make Villa happy with Adrian?

On tonight’s episode, “Puffer Fish & Personal History,” when a victim, presumed dead, wakes up on Rosie’s autopsy table, the team is thrown into a world in which people go to great lengths to keep their secrets hidden. Both Rosie and Villa are forced to re-examine the meaning of family, and Rosie’s search for a Magic City Lab investor leads him to a surprising candidate.

Find out who could potentially invest in Magic City Lab tonight on FOX at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Grimm & Last Man Standing.
