      Yeah, I thought it was going to be lame but got better as it became more outrageous.

        We want to see This is Us....we love Designated Survivor and Timeless so far...not a lot of time otherwise

          How are Timeless/Man with a plan so far? Both those shows I got every episode on my DVR, but haven't watched any yet. Don't want to commit to shows early and have them cancelled/make me feel like I wasted __ hours watching stuff for nothing.

          Timeless especially, if anyone has also watched Legends of Tomorrow, how does it compare? Cause I know both shows basically deal with time travel and all that.

          And also,since everyone's talking about it...how's Kevin Can Wait?

            Haven't seen Legends of Tomorrow. Timeless is done by the guy who created Revolution (the show where the power went out), so it's pretty cool in that each episode has the people going back in time to try and stop a bad guy from changing history, but also having the ongoing characters and overarching storyline.

            It makes me remember Quantum Leap, but still different....

            We liked Revolution, and knowing that we figure he's halfway decent at crafting a longer term story....vs being done by some new person...

              Timeless looks good for season 2. I haven't started watching yet either, but will probably soon. It is the #4 show on NBC in 18-49 ratings group.

              Man with a plan is ok at best. Nothing special about it, but it could survive off of name value and its on CBS.

                I'm really liking The Good Place on NBC. It's very creative.

                  I figured that I would like Timeless, but I'm actually really loving it. The depth of characterization for the main stars, and surprisingly, the people who the meet in the past is really strong.

                  I never watch 30 minutes sitcoms, but this one really works for me.

                    The girl on this show is absolutely hilarious. Her confidence and way she speaks to people cracks me up.
                    Just finished the second episode...All I'll say is WOW.

                      Saw 2 episodes of timeless so far. As expected, it's nice concept and all for the show. Early still, but none of actors stand out to me so far. Characters themselves are fine for now, but the secrets are interesting.

                      I'm probably gonna continue watching and hope it's great. I'm one of those "in it for the long haul" types of viewers, so once I watch a show, I commit to it unless it gives me a major reason not to. So hopefully this show doesn't disappoint.

                        Finished Goliath-good watch...Billy Bob plays such a likable character.

                        Looking forward to the second season and hopefully more of Molly Parker.

                          Watched 1 episode of Man with a plan. Matt Leblanc stuff is good, but don't like any other character so far.

                            Timeless get additional episode order, so it's staying on for a while:

                            NBC has ordered an additional three episodes of sci-fi drama "Timeless," bringing its full-season order to 16. The network also set the premiere date for fellow freshman drama "Taken," which will take over the 10 p.m.


                            Good to see, as it's well done. Story has a few plot holes, but the historical aspect of everything in the past is fascinating and accurate. I watch it with my 11 year old and it's quite educational for him, so hope it stays on for a long time

                            Really liking Man With A Plan, Matt LeBlanc is funny and so is Kevin Nealon. The wife is a good straight man (woman). This and the Kevin James show make a good 1-2 comedy hour.

                              I gave up on timeless. It's a good show and concept, and I like the historical aspect of it too(especially for me since I don't know certain parts of American history in detail like many others watching it), but doesn't have that "The cast is great, and I can't wait to watch the next one" feel for me like most other shows I watch. I might still revisit it later since I got up to the James Bond one, but only if it gets great reviews for later part of season.

                              And Man with a plan, like I said, Matt Leblanc is good, but supporting cast I didn't find as appealing. Shows like this, they need good supporting cast cause people tune in cause of Matt Leblanc, but stay cause of everyone else. Didn't have that "stay" factor for me. I'll give it a few more episodes because of my "Bob's burgers rule".

                              Tonight's a good night to check out new shows on demand since nobody has anything outside of elections.

                                For you I'd recommend checking out Timeless over the summer if it gets season 2...I think the characters will get stronger, but you'll kinda know that then and just binge watch!

                                We caught up with Superstore. It's a cute sitcom, nothing amazing but each episode's story and characters always get a laugh out of me. More like the Office vs. a Modern Family type sitcom, so nice to have that option.
