The last round of shows has hit your TV screens, all from CBS.
Here are the last three reviews of the fall 2016 season:
8:30 p.m. Mondays on CBS
Another “Friends” star is back on TV!
Matt LeBlanc stars in this CBS sitcom as a dad who is now the primary caregiver of his kids after his wife decides to go back to work.
#ManWithAPlan is a bit like Joey grew up and became a contractor…but it’s enjoyable. #newTV #TV2016 #fallTV

It’s not laugh-out-funny, but LeBlanc will make you smile. He may be able to carry the show, and it’s a good role for him as he continues to grow beyond his Joey persona.
The sitcom has traditional touches, such as musical transitions between scenes, but it still feels updated as the kids are grounded by restricted technology use.
It’s still a fairly typical family comedy, but it doesn’t seem too stale. For now, anyway.
Grade: B
8:30 p.m. Thursdays on CBS
In the realm of transitioning magazines and newspapers into digital media, this comedy hits home, with a battle of millennials vs. old-school at the forefront.
Joel McHale (“Community“) stars as a man raised in the 90s with no digital footprint. He doesn’t know how to adapt after being taken off of field reporting to train a new generation of digital-savvy 20-somethings who have to make work fun..and get trophies for “trying hard.” They’re also rarely seen without technology, even though they work at an outdoors menu (hence the title name play).
It’s all a little forced, but the show has potential to be funny. I’m just not sure I want to wait for that to happen.
Grade: B-
10 p.m. Thursdays on CBS
Dometic abuse, premature delivery, comas, life support…the premiere of this CBS drama sure packed in a lot of emotional drama.
Combining medical and technological advances, the staff at Bunker Hill tries to save lives in any way possible.
Bunker Hill is run by a tech app genius, and the doctors around him are skeptical but helpful.
It’s intriguing to watch technology and knowledge combine, but the pilot was overly packed with different plots.
Grade: B-
That’s it for the new broadcast TV shows. What are your favorites?
