With nothing new on TV, I watched Blue Bloods last fall. I'm a sucker for romance, and I really like the chemistry of the actors, so, I'm rooting for Erin and Jack and hope they'll end up back together for good. 

I'm also looking forward to The Irrational. Nothing in particular, so far, I've just enjoyed the show, and look forward to more.

I don’t know what’s out there anymore.  I keep forgetting about the shows I do know about, and haven’t finished. Like Perry Mason, on HBO, which is not coming back, so I hope they didn’t remove it from the service. 

I am looking forward to Severance.  I liked Daredevil, when it was on Netflix, but I finally got rid of Disney+. 
I’m going to get back to watching Ghosts, and I know that is coming back. As long as we don’t get rid of Hulu.

I don’t currently have Disney but I will want to see Daredevil. It is like one show per streaming service. Most of the services provide enough to keep you occupied in general, movies and so on. I wonder what the landscape will be like in a year. Right now it is hard to make a case for needing ine over the other. 
 

The Boys/gen V is my prime pick.

I'm looking forward to Severance and Silo.  Esbeth, Matlock, Will Trent, Blue Bloods.  I was watching the documentary about The Sopranos, and the woman writer who was let go is co-creator of Blue Bloods, oddly enough. 

I'll also be watching Abbott Elementary, The Connors, and Mandy and Georgie's First Marriage.

Oh, Silo! I think that’s coming back in November.

The only new series I plan on trying is Matlock.  I didn't know it existed until this weekend when I kept seeing promos for it during football.  I wasn't into the original, and I tend to drift away from legal dramas because, if they don't really suck me in, my primary response is irritated distraction by the inevitable inaccuracies, but between Kathy Bates starring and a fundamental point of the show being how an old woman uses being rendered invisible as a weapon, I have to check it out.

My returning shows are Ghosts and The Conners (and The Upshaws, but that doesn't return until early next year).  I am particularly looking forward to the former, and hope the latter, having had plenty of time to plan it, comes up with a satisfying finale.

Other than that, a bunch of documentaries/documentary series (which thankfully get released year-round, so there isn't a lull), Jeopardy! and football.

New show premiering tonight High Potential sounds like it has potential.  May be another Columbo-esque type. 

I just read about it in the NYT. I hadn't heard a word about it before. 

 

I thought that sounded familiar. A streamer I like, was in the pilot, I think. Or one of the first few episodes. She was late to stream, because she was working on it, one week.

It's more "whodoneit" than Columbo. 

It's based on a French series called HPI that can be seen on Hulu with either subtitles or dubbing.  I watched a few episodes of the French series and while I love my French crime dramedies, HPI didn't do much for me.

I watched last night, too, and I had a hard time evaluating it as the pilot was basically a remake of the first episode of the French series, so it felt too familiar to me.  I do think I like Kaitlin Olsen better than the French lead which I feel guilty about because the French actress is very good and celebrated.  I'm also a fan of Judy Reyes.  I wish they had hired a different lead detective, though. 

As with most mystery adaptations, I look forward to when it moves in its own direction away from the original.

I'm going to try "Brilliant Minds" with Zachary Quinto and "Matlock" with Kathy Bates, mainly because I like the leads.

Same. Likewise, I got into Ghosts because I liked the lead in another show. 

On my Google Doc sheet TV schedule are: 

  • Only Murders In The Building (Hulu, Tuesdays)— liking the new season 
     
  • Matlock (CBS/Paramount+, Thursdays, Oct 10?) — just saw the pilot; too soon to tell
     
  • Hi Surf (Fox/Hulu) — will catch the pilot tomorrow on Hulu; I like water
     
  • 9-1-1 Lone Star (Fox/Hulu) — The first few eps of each season have always been like a disaster flick; probably won't watch the rest of this final season

  • St. Denis Medical (NBC/Peacock, Tuesdays, Nov. 12) Allison Tolman is worth watching; "workplace comedy"

  • High Potential (ABC/Hulu, Tuesdays) — pilot was okay

  • FBI (CBS/Paramount+, Tuesdays, Oct 15)  — another show I wouldn't watch if I didn't get the streamer for cheap for a year

  • Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage (CBS/Paramount+, Thursdays, Oct 17)  — plan to cringe watch the first episode

  • Law & Order (NBC/Peacock, Thursdays, Oct 3)

  • 9-1-1  (ABC/Hulu, Thursdays, Sept 26) The first few eps of each season have always been like a disaster flick; not sure if I'll watch the rest

  • Ghosts (CBS/Paramount+, Thursdays, Oct 17) — like it a lot

  • Doctor Odyssey (ABC/Hulu, Thursdays, Sept. 26)  — should have high production values, and I like water, but probably not my thing

  • Elspeth (CBS/Paramount+, Oct 17) — like it a lot, including the wardrobe

  • Brilliant Minds (NBC/Peacock; Mondays, Sep 23)  — saw an interview with lead Zachary Quinto explaining the premise so thought I'd give it a shot; probably too intense for me
