Timeless (Monday, Oct. 3 at 10/9c)
Why does it seems like the cast of Extant moved into this show? If you haven’t gotten enough of time travel, add this one to your list to watch. Follow the story of a scientist, soldier and history professor going back in time to stop someone whom they assume is a criminal and has every intention on changing the future. I don’t know about you, but it reminded me of a non-superhero version of DC’s Legends of Tomorrow but that may be just because I finished catching up on the first season of that one. However, both series follow the idea of tracking down one person who intends on destroying whatever we may know about our future. Interesting. What’s it with the obsession with the past and future? I guess I could sort of blame Back to the Future for that.

The Good Place (Monday, Sep. 19 at 10/9c)
There are so many shows who are really adamant on the afterlife. *Ahem* CBS’ Angel From Hell. This time, NBC will be airing the series The Good Place starring Kristen Bell and Ted Danson. The two work together figuring out some of life’s toughest questions all while in the afterlife AKA “The Good Place.” This is definitely not the type of place for someone like Kristen Bell’s character who was basically meant to go to Hell in the first place.
As much as I love Kristen Bell and adore her obsessions with sloth as much as I do, I could already sense this getting cut mid-season. There’s just something about this show that doesn’t appeal to me. Prove me wrong, Kristen. But then again, if Jane Lynch couldn’t save a show like this, could Kristen?

This Is Us (Tuesday, Sep. 20 at 10/9c)
Only one of the most shared television trailers I’ve seen on Facebook! I will definitely be tuning into this one the day it premieres. Following the same layout of movies such as Valentine’s Day, Crazy, Stupid, Love and New Year’s Eve, every main character will be linked together in some way or the other. Makes sense since this comes from the same writer and directors of the movie Crazy, Stupid, Love. I’m assuming just based off the trailer, the audience will receive a real, gripping dramedy of true to life situations. Don’t fail us now!
