Friday
Friday this year appears to be a night of shows I've given up on. Undercover Boss, Hawaii Five-O, Shark Tank, and Grimm are all shows I kinda enjoyed that were victims of previous cuts. The only one I really miss is Shark Tank, and so...
It's back baby!!
In a first ever move on the 21 Hours we are bringing back a previously cut show! Of course to be fair, it was one of my final cuts in an absolutely brutal year last year, but still, it's HISTORY IN THE MAKING!!
Other than that, the only thing on Friday Night that I will be taking in is "Home Improvement 2: Last Man Standing". The only show on TV worth putting up with a laugh track for, mostly because I'm already conditioned to enjoy Tim Allen that way.
MUST: Nope.

Sunday
Anyone else feeling a little bit of Deja vu?
Usually with each new season there are shifts, additions, and deletions that shake up the lineup, but this year, with one solitary exception, Sunday is the same as last year. I don't mean the same for one network, I mean every network, the whole night. No need to adjust your DVR schedule things will remain the same.
Speaking of remaining the same...
A quarter of a century. That's how long "The Simpsons" has been on the air. It's mind boggling. I've already seen the season premiere for this year (That's right, living the high life of a TV critic, seeing FOX animated comedies 3 weeks in advance.) and the most amazing thing is that the quality doesn't seem to be letting up. Yes, there is something about the magic of seasons 3-7, but I have to say, I dare you to watch any episode since season 8 and ID a drop in quality anywhere. The perfect 10s are fewer and farther between but almost every episode is an 8 or 9. Hilarious satire 25 years in a row, bravo.
Elsewhere, I'll also be watching the "not quite as Amazing as it used to be" Race, The Mentalist, and checking in with Once Upon A Time to see how they will continue to make that concept work.

Enjoy the season!
