blindspot119smallMy pick tonight is Blindspot. For someone who doesn’t like conspiracies in my TV shows, it’s amazing that I love this one as much as I do, since it is almost nothing BUT conspiracies! Last week, Weller, Jane, and his team went up to the back country to an address Patterson deciphered from one of Jane’s tattoos. There, they found a bad man (played by Lou Diamond Phillips, who I ADORE) connected to Mayfair. They had to follow even more clues and tattoos to get out of there alive after the militia (or whatever they technically were) hunted them down and shot at them. At the end of the map, they found a helicopter, which Jane knew how to fly. Meanwhile, Patterson’s boyfriend couldn’t keep his nose to himself, so while he ended up helping her to solve one of the tattoos, Mayfair caught them. Not only did she have the tattoo images out of the FBI building, but she’d told him about them, which was a no-no. So she was in big trouble. Mayfair said this was her one mistake, so she wasn’t fired, but because of it, she broke up with her boyfriend after he’d just convinced her to let him move in.

So now Weller knows something isn’t on the up-and-up with Mayfair. Will he find out more details this week, and if he does, will he share with Jane or the others? And now that Jane and Weller have begun to admit their feelings for one another are more than professional, will that continue?

On tonight’s episode, “Persecute Envoys,” after a police officer is murdered, Patterson unlocks a disturbing tattoo that appears to have predicted his killing, and the team chases a violent clue trail to stop further attacks. Mayfair reveals secrets from her past to Weller, seriously testing their relationship.

See if the team can stop the attacks tonight on NBC at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Chopped, Supergirl, Cake Wars, Major Crimes, Scorpion, NCIS: LA, & Castle.

ncisla1019smallTwo of my favorites are going to collide tonight on NCIS: LA. Deeks and Tony. Tony and Deeks. Ahhhh! What’s a woman to do but watch and drool?! On last week’s episode, we got the sweetest scene with Deeks and Kensi. They finished a case where Kensi had been undercover, cozying up to the bad guy, so they were all tired. Kensi and Deeks went to her (His? Their? I don’t know…) house, and while she changed out of the super fancy, expensive dress into an Iron Maiden T-shirt and jeans, he cooked the perfect breakfast for the two of them. But Deeks acted uncharacteristically nervous and unsure of himself when he basically apologized for not being able to give Kensi anything money could buy. She responded perfectly by saying she had what she’d always dreamed of – a relationship like they had with a man like him. It was so heartwarmingly good. Of course, then they were interrupted by a case. LOL It turned out a man was threatening to blow people up and cut Sam and Callen off from the rest of their team to make them jump through his hoops. He was out for revenge since they’d killed his brother years before. In the end, the team was able to not only take him and his team down but also stop the bomb from going off before it could reach the intended target.

On tonight’s episode, “Blame It On Rio,” NCIS Special Agent DiNozzo (Michael Weatherly)
partners with the LA team to search the city after his prisoner escapes custody on a flight from Singapore to Los Angeles.

To see how Tony gets along with the team, tune in to CBS at 10/9c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing The Big Bang Theory, Life in Pieces, Halloween Baking Championship, Scorpion, & Blindspot.

theflash106smallI’m really excited for the return of The Flash tonight. In this era of the dark, brooding superhero, it was great to see this series take the opposite approach and just have fun. When the first season left off, Wells had given Barry Allen the chance to go back in time to prevent his mother’s murder. While Barry debated the pros and cons of this unique opportunity, Caitlin and Ronnie got married, with their wedding officiated by Doctor Stein. Ultimately, Barry did go back in time, but just to say good-bye, instead of messing with the unknown consequences of changing the past. However, his trip caused a dangerous wormhole to appear. Eddie, knowing that Barry was predestined to end up with Iris, decided to kill himself in order to stop Thawne from being born and end his evil reign. However, this didn’t stop the deadly wormhole, and now a black hole was looming overhead.

How will Barry use his powers to prevent the destruction of Central City? Is Thawne really dead, and will Eddie’s sacrifice cause anything to change? What will happen to S.T.A.R. Labs without Harrison Wells around? What new meta-humans will Barry and his gang come up against this season? I’m looking forward to another fun, action-packed season!

Also returning to the CW tonight is iZombie, which I ended up really enjoying last season. I had the chance to talk with some of the cast and creators of the show at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. You can find my videos at NoReruns.net.

On tonight’s premiere of The Flash, “The Man Who Saved Central City,” Barry decides to protect Central City on his own, but when Atom Smasher attacks, Iris pleads with Barry to let his friends help protect the citizens. Meanwhile, Cisco helps Joe with his Meta Task Force.

See if Barry will let his friends help tonight on The CW at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Limitless, The Muppets, Fresh Off the Boat, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Best Time Ever with Neil Patrick Harris, Grandfathered, The Grinder, Scream Queens, and Face Off.

scorpion105smallScorpion is a show that you kind of have to watch while knowing that it could be a little ridiculous – like on the season premiere with the weather balloon – but I love it. It’s a fun show, and as long as you don’t expect complete realism, you can enjoy it like I do. Last week, the team traveled to Cuba when a young woman from Cade’s past came to him for help in locating the war criminal who killed her parents when she was a little girl. It was an off-the-books mission, even though secretly, Molina helped them by setting them up with contacts and a plane to and from Cuba. The team barely made it back when the bad guy escaped right before they met the plane to go home, but they were able to grab him and get him on it before the Cuban police showed up. My favorite parts were how they went in to the barbershop get him and how they got Happy through the bank’s roof to get into the bad guy’s safety deposit box.

I’m really liking Alana De La Garza as the new head of Homeland Security, Adriana Molina. So far she’s worked well with the team. I hope she continues that way, rather than turning into a jerk like the former one did.

On tonight’s episode, “Fish Filet,” in order to save the lives of three judges, Sylvester goes undercover in a federal prison, but Team Scorpion must break him out when his life is threatened. Alana De La Garza and Kevin Weisman guest star.

See how the team gets Sylvester out tonight on CBS at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing The Big Bang Theory, Penn & Teller: Fool Us, Life in Pieces, Halloween Baking Championship, Minority Report, Whose Line Is It Anyway?, NCIS: LA, & Blindspot.

significantmothersmallLast week, The CW kicked off its new scripted comedy Significant Mother. In the premiere, Nate (Josh Zuckerman, 90210) came home from a business trip to discover that his roommate/best friend Jimmy (Nathaniel Buzolic, The Vampire Diaries) is hooking up with his mother Lydia (Krista Allen, Days of Our Lives). The premiere mainly consisted of Jimmy freaking out, which was humorous but gave no indication as to what the weekly show is going to be like. (Though, if it’s just Jimmy freaking out all the time, I could live with that.)

I really liked that cast, and the premise seems like it could be a lot of fun — my only concern is that The CW doesn’t really have a great track record with these half-hour sitcoms. They seem to pull/cancel them rather quickly. I’m not sure why The CW keeps trying to get into the half-hour comedy business, but I hope this one actually sticks around.

On tonight’s episode, “Mixed Doubles,” Lydia and Jimmy plan a date in public to rebuff Nate’s contention that they’re not serious about their relationship. Nate, meanwhile, goes on a date with an older woman he meets at a restaurant; and Atticus prepares for a perfect evening with Sam.

To see how Lydia & Jimmy’s date goes, tune in to The CW at 9:30/8:30c.

I’ll also be watching/recording Running Wild with Bear Grylls, Chasing Life, Becoming Us, Major Crimes, Murder in the First, Devious Maids, and Teen Wolf.
