THE MIDDLE is back for their 6th season premiere tonight (8/7c) and I feel like I’ve been counting down the minutes. The show about the every day struggles of a family living in Middle America has been a favorite since day one, and tonight’s episode is no different – Frankie screws up dates, and Sue and Brick are forced to make an awkward first impression at school, while Mike and Axl fight it out repeatedly on the basketball court. Oh
Tonight on ABC, an all new family is welcomed to Wednesday nights when BLACK-ISH premieres at 9:30/8:30c. Anthony Anderson and Tracee Ellis Ross star as Dre and Rainbow, well-off parents of Zoey, Junior, Jack, and Diane. When Dre realizes that his family has started to lose a grip on their family culture (as a family in general and as a family of color), he commits himself to changing things around.

We got to spend time with Ben McKenzie at Comic Con, talking all things GOTHAM, and what we should expect from the first season – take a look at the video we posted from our roundtable, and let us know what you think of the premiere at 8/7c on FOX!
Tonight on ABC, catch the “sneak peek” of FOREVER, one of my top picks for the new season, before it moves to its home at 10/9c on Tuesday nights. Ioan Gruffudd plays Dr Henry Morgan, a NYC medical examiner who has died hundreds of deaths, yet none of them have stuck. He uses his position in the morgue to examine death to try to figure out how or why exactly he is immortal, and in doing so, helps solve the
Twitter Take: SCORPION was okay, if not entirely believable (#thatplanescenethough). Not a definite must see, but not the worst fall drama. — Amrie Cunningham (@mytakeontv) September 22, 2014
At Comic Con 2014, I was a part of the round tables in the room for GOTHAM, which premieres tonight on FOX at 8/7c before the bonkers SLEEPY HOLLOW season 2 return! The show is a prequel of sorts to the Batman story we’re all fairly familiar with – this time, we focus on Commissioner James Gordon, back when he just got his Detective Shield, and his partner Harvey Bullock (played with relish by Donal Logue). Check out the above
Tonight on CBS (8:30/7:30c depending on football, and re-airing at 10:30/9:30c), the all new drama MADAM SECRETARY premieres. Téa Leoni stars as Elizabeth McCord, a woman who, due to a history with the President from her days in the CIA (she left for ethical reasons), finds herself as the surprising new Secretary of State for the United States. As she struggles to find her footing among the more seasoned members of the cabinet and inner circle, she also has to find
Full disclosure? I’m so tempted to just type “I love THE GOOD WIFE more than mostly everything on TV,” as my review of the Season 6 premiere (Sunday at 9:30/8:30c on CBS), and leave it at that. That’s how much I love it and the premiere, which I’ve been describing to people as “weird/good” because the story goes so far in a direction I didn’t think it ever would that it felt uncomfortable in a great way. We pick right
I don’t dislike RED BAND SOCIETY. Not fully. I liked Octavia Spencer very much. And Dave Annable is great and beautiful with that salt-and-pepper hair going on. And I really like everything regarding Thomas Ian Nicholas and Wilson Cruz and Griffin Dunne. Are you sensing a theme yet? Because therein lies the problem – I should like at least something related to the kids in the show that make up 60-70% of the cast and story. But I didn’t. Nothing
I struggled with what words to use to describe my feelings for THE MYSTERIES OF LAURA, premiering tonight on NBC after a special two hour AMERICA’S GOT TALENT finale (though, you wouldn’t know that unless you paid attention to the annoying and silent pop up things that appear during other shows, since NBC itself keeps saying it premieres NEXT week on 9/24…but I digress). This image is all I could come up with**: **What I’m really trying to say is
