Prime Picks
Brooklyn Nine-Nine (FOX): New. Jake and Holt decide they need to do something to get out of their present situation. The rest of the squad deals with their new captain. Runs 31 minutes.
New Girl (FOX): New. Jess and Cece attempt to get voters for the Presidential election. Winston tries to help Nick. Starts a minute after the half hour and runs 30 minutes.
Bull (CBS): New. Dr. Bull has to create a new strategy after gender bias is uncovered.
This Is Us (NBC): New. Toby attempts to help Kate relax. Beth wants to know more about Randall’s biological father. Rebecca and Jack have become distant. If you listened to my preview, you know that I had one caveat going forward in regards to this show. That being that the twist was a big part of what made the first episode great and it’s not something that you can really do long term. After having watched tonight’s and next week’s episodes, I am no longer worried, at least for the foreseeable future. What did you think of last week’s premiere? Will you be continuing to watch?
