Prime Picks
Canterbury’s Law (FOX): Series Premiere. After the disappearance of her young son, an attorney spends all her time working and doing what ever she can to help the wrongfully accused. Stars Julianna Margulies (ER).
New Amsterdam (FOX): New. A controversial psychiatrist is murdered and a homeless war veteran confesses to the crime, but Amsterdam isn’t so sure. Meanwhile, he may be a step closer to finding the woman that will make him mortal again. Really like how they weave the backstory throughout an episode. Hopefully, it will do well without following American Idol.
Medium (NBC): New. Allison tries to keep Joe out of the loop of why his mother has come to visit.
Solid Selections
How I Met You Mother (CBS): Repeat. Barney gets he and his pals into the after party of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, but he seems to be having a temporary problem talking with the ladies in “The Yips” from earlier this season.
The New Adventures of Old Christine (CBS): New. Christine is letting new Christine set her up on a blind date and another new episode airs after Two and a Half Men.
October Road (ABC): Season Finale. An ex of Eddie’s tries to reconnect with him and Janet starts to lose it emotionally. Hannah gets arrested for assaulting Ray’s ex. Nick gets offered a job out of town. There is no word yet on whether this will be back for another season, so this could actually be the series finale.
