If We Controlled Your Remote… 9/20/16

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!

Jenny’s Choice

bull920smallMy pick tonight is the series premiere of Bull. Michael Weatherly moves from being Tony DiNozzo on NCIS to playing Dr. Jason Bull in this drama inspired by the early career of Dr. Phil McGraw, found of one of the most prolific trial consulting firms of all time. Dr. Bull and his team of experts at TAC (Trial Analysis Corporation) combine psychology, human intuition, and high-tech data to learn what makes jurors, attorneys, witnesses, and the accused tick. His team includes: his brother-in-law Benny Colón (Freddy Rodriguez), who plays a defense attorney in mock trials; Marissa Morgan (Geneva Carr), a cutting-edge neurolinguistics expert from the Department of Homeland Security; former NYPD detective Danny James (Jaime Lee Kirchner), the firm’s tough but relatable investigator; haughty millennial hacker Cable McCrory (Annabelle Attanasio), who is responsible for gathering cyber intelligence; and Chunk Palmer (Chris Jackson), a fashion-conscious stylist and former All-American lineman who fine tunes clients’ appearances for trial.

I’ve seen tonight’s premiere, and it’s a great CBS procedural – just enough of the same to know I’ll love the show yet different enough to give it a bit of a new twist. Michael Weatherly is adorable and cocky, and his team is fun, although we don’t get to see a ton from them in the premiere. I can’t wait to see more of this one.

On tonight’s episode, “The Necklace,” when a wealthy young woman is killed and a young man is charged with her murder, his very wealthy, very well-known father hires Dr. Bull to help convince a jury to find the boy not guilty. Frederick Weller guest stars.

See Dr. Bull at work tonight on CBS at 9/8c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Chopped Junior, NCIS, Chopped, & NCIS: NOLA.
