Premiere Season 2019

Hello, again.

This is a super annoying post, because 1: It's been a long time since I've posted, and 2: My tablet is being difficult, so I'm posting via my cell phone. So, we'll see if my notebooks are sufficient references.

Every show I'm trying keep track of will get a brief review and maybe a letter grade. Thanks for reading/following.

Seal Team/S.W.A.T- SWAT is a slightly better show but honestly, if you've seen one, you've seen them both. Just decide whom you like better. Angel/Bones or Criminal Minds. They both get a C+, for being unoriginal.

The Neighborhood- Still very cliche, but worth 24 minutes. The 2nd episode was better, and Beth Behrs is one bad, white ,bitch. B

9-1-1- Great cliffhanger premiere. I'm watching anything with Jennifer Love Hewitt, but
Angela Bassett and Aisha Hinds steal every scene. Props to the Black women! B-

All Rise- Probably the best new show on TV. I give it a B+, it's only lost points because I don't believe a judge in 2019 could ever be that liberal. I don't care if she's a black woman. It's not realistic.

Bull- B-. Bull is unlikable, Michael Weatherly is jammed up in real life, and there's no way they get a cab in New York City that quickly. But I still love the show.

NCIS- Ziva lost her bloody mind. We don't leave our people behind, and there's no way Ziva and Gibbs don't have an arsenal of weapons on stand by. A-, still one of the best shows on tv.

Emergence- This show is a piece of crap. The premise is inexplicable, the pacing makes no sense and the acting is barely passable. D

Empire- A. Terrence and Tariji get the Emmy's right now. Also, I love the fact that they wasted no time explaining Jussie Smollett's series exit. "He ran off to London. End of story." Solid A.

Mixed-ish- Nope. "Grown-ish" is unwatchable, so it's no surprise that the other "Black-ish" spinoff is terrible. Zack Morris nostalgia isn't enough. I'm Black and Puerto Rican, my son is Black Puerto Rican, Welsh, and Sicilian. Our level of mixed-ish can't  save this dumpster fire. F

Treadstone- Meh. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't good. I'll give it a shot because I like Brian Smith (Stargate), and the Bourne series. A-

Black-ish- Marsai Martin (Diane) continues to steal every scene. Black-ish is still one of the best comedies on tv. Morpheus has a new wife. B+

Fresh Off the Boat- Consistently hilarious. I wish the entire cast were my cousins, and Constance Wu was my ex wife (Crazy Rich Asians). A

Stumptown- Cobie and Jake are amazing, I could imagine this show going for 7 years. Only question is, how much violence could happen in the middle of the day, in the middle of the street, with nobody noticing? A

FBI- Great twist having a Muslim bombing a Muslim owned restaurant. I have a crush on Missy Peregrym. B

The Masked Singer- This is one of the dumbest, most entertaining shows ever.Who is the celebrity masked singer?  Turn your brain off and enjoy it. B+

Chicago Fire- They killed off Otis. I'm not happy. But the "OneChicago" crossovers are epic. (Even though I don't like medical dramas.) A

Chicago PD- Adios, Anne Heche. I will not miss your character. Jason Bethe is a BMF. A

The Good Doctor- Shaun is an autistic surgeon, but I find him more agreeable than most people I know. It must feel so liberating to outwardly dislike people sans regret. B-

Saturday Night Live-  Woody was mildly entertaining, Billie Eilish kinda boring. The best part was, by far, Keenan impersonating Bug Papi for 'Weekend Update'. "Whatever doesn't kill you, makes you wanna kill the person who tried to kill you." B-

Blue Bloods- My favorite show on TV. Solid stand alone episode, but Callie Thorne plays an extremely annoying, wackjob, psychic again. B+

Magnum- Higgins is one bad bitch. I hope she sticks around as Magnums's partner. Katsumoto spends the entire episode pissed off at Magnum, but delivers one of the best lines of all my shows. "Leave, before I arrest you for giving me a migraine." A

Hawaii 5-O- Scott Caan should be in every episode, if only so Steve can say "Book 'em Danno." Otherwise it was a totally forgettable one and done episode. C+

God Friended Me- I have no idea how this terrible show, with a terrible title, lasted a full season, let alone renewed for a second season. Spare yourself the wasted 42 minutes and do absolutely anything else. F+

NCIS:LA- "I love it when a plan comes together." Kensi Worth it if only for the A-Team reference. Also a pretty action packed episode. B

The Rookie- Quickly becoming one of my favorite shows. Nathan Fillion is amazing. It is also quickly going to make no sense if this old rookie doesn't  make detective in the next season. And his new training officer has got to go. I hate her.

Thanks for reading/following. Watch one of my shows and tell me your thoughts. I promise to get back to you sooner or later. Buenas noches.
