FOX Fall 2017 Shows, my impressions...

FOX has some of the best shows of all the networks.  The only three new shows on their fall schedule are all science fiction.


The Orville
After watching the trailer three times, I'm even more excited about this than I was when I first heard about this last month. This looks so good, CBS should just cut their loses and stop production of that crappy new Star Trek show right now.


Gifted
A family with two mutants kids goes on the run from the government. Considering how good Legion was, I'm expecting this to be good, even if it does have kids in it. I'm glad they are making more X-Men based TV shows.


Ghosted
Adam Scott and Craig Robinson join a secret agency hunting the paranormal and aliens. This looks hilarious.


LA to Vegas
This show is about a flight crew going the short trip from LA to Las Vegas. The trailer looks hilarious but I can't image this will be successful. I love everyone in the cast.


The Resident
A medical show with a failing star surgeon now killing people and an obnoxious head resident who the new interns hate. I have never liked medical dramas so this won't get my attention.


9-1-1
A rather bland sounding procedural about first responders. There's not even a trailer for it on FOX's youtube channel. But Angela Basset is in it so there's that.

NBC Fall 2017 Shows, my impressions...

It's upfronts week. NBC and Fox were the first with their announcements on Monday. Last year I missed making these reports because I was working hard on my book, available on Amazon. NBC only has three new shows on their fall schedule.



Will & Grace
I wrote about this earlier but I'm still so excited this is happening. Will they just ignore the future events of the finale or just jump to their kids going to college? Either way I will totally watch this. The trailer is awesome as the cast preforms a version of As If We Never Said Goodbye from Sunset BLVD.


The Brave
An elite team rescues people from bad guys in bad parts of the world. This is total not Seal Team. It's a totally different show. The trailer is a bit confusing as to who is the star and they give away the ending of the first episode I think. It stars that guy from Under the Dome and Anne Heche.


Law & Order True Crime: The Menendez Murders
True crime is a big deal right now and NBC is getting in on it. The Menendez murders was quickly overshadowed by OJ and Jean Benet Ramsey, but it was a big deal when it happened.


In addition to the scheduled fall shows, these are the other shows on order. There are no trailers for these.

Good Girls
Thelma and Louis the TV show? Except there's three of them. That's what it sounds like.

Reverie
A hostage negotiator and college professor uses VR technology to live out fantasy lives. Ready Player One doesn't come out until next year, maybe this is trying to get a jump on that.

Rise
Ted Mosby becomes a drama teacher and inspires students and the small town.

AP Bio
The new biology teacher uses his smart students for his own purposes.

Champions
A hot guy who lives with his hotter brother finds out he has a teenage son and laughs ensue.

The Awesome Show
New tech gets showcased each week.

Ellen's Game of Games
A new game show with trivia and physical challenges. Ellen's always funny.

Genius Junior
A game show for smart kids hosted by NPH.

The Handmade Project
This is a version of a cooking show challenge but with crafting. Really?


Other than Will & Grace, I'm a little disappointed in NBC

2017 Straight To Series, my impressions

We are one week away from the official upfronts events. I skipped out on my usually upfronts run-down last years as I was working hard on finishing my book.

Entertainment weekly wrote up all the pilot candidates up for consideration this year. Check it out here. In that list there were four series which were ordered direct to series. This happens occasionally when the network thinks a concept is that good. I'm going to watch all four of these shows.


Orville - Fox
A science fiction comedy series about a ship that not exactly the Galaxy Class Flagship. Seth McFarlene with write, produce, and star. Bobbi from SHIELD plays the first officer and ex-wife of the captain. This looks better than the new Star Trek series from CBS that never seems to ever going to happen.


Inhumans - ABC

Set in the MCU, Inhumans isn't exactly a spin-off of Agents of SHIELD. That show has had inhumans for two seasons. This show is about the royal family that was supposed to be a movie but never quite made it. I don't know how they are going to do Medusa. That's a very heavy CG character if there ever was one.


Young Sheldon - CBS
This spin-off of The Big Bang Theory is obviously about Sheldon growing up in Texas with his religious mother, alcoholic father, older brother, and twin sister. The show starts when he is nine years old so that means if there is a season three, he will be in college then. There's always room for more TV shows set in the 80s.


Will & Grace - NBC
Netflix asked NBC for the rights for a Will & Grace reunion and NBC responded, "Thanks for the idea, suckers!" I'm not sure how this will work since in the finale, it was established that Will and Grace didn't talk to each other for 20 years. It's only been 11 years. I would be perfectly fine if they speed up the timeline and have them pick up with their kids going to college in the first episode. Soaps age characters up much faster than this.

I watched episode S02E02 yesterday and it ended with a huge plot twist, they compromised Whispers and identified Croome. This episode ended Whispers killing Croome. Wow.

 

#AmazingRace 28 halfway point, go #TheBoys and #TeamBrookeandScott

We are halfway through the current season of The Amazing Race. We are down to six teams. Only three will make it to the finals. I currently like all but one team.

Team The Boys are the team to beat. Unless they have some bad luck, they will likely come out on top. I love watching Matt scamper up things like a fucking spider monkey. And I still want to rub my face in Redmond's beard for hours.



Team Brooke and Scott have come a long way. I was really surprised they made it out of Venice not in last place. Hopefully Brooke can pull her shit together. As a fellow gay ginger, I have to root for Scott. I love it when he flirts with Redmond.

Team Fun is exactly that. They are always smiling and having a great time. How can I not want them to win?

Team LoLo seem to be in the crosshairs of a couple other teams right now. Logan is so fucking hot I can't stand it. Why won't he take his shirt of again?

Team Liz and Mike as just so adorable. They have a speed bump to deal with as well as their failing team dynamics. I still love them and hope they figure things out.

Team Mom and Dad are the only ones I don't like. They knocked out my future ex-husband Seth with the U-turn so I will never forgive them. I want them out next!
