We’re rounding out the new fall broadcast shows, but nothing will make you run for the couch.
The Winchesters
8 p.m. Tuesdays on the CW
Look, I didn’t watch “Supernatural,” so this prequel series may be a little lost on me.
But the CW knows its brand, and this show fits right in with demons, magic, chasing and more.
The pilot is a little bumpy as it tries to explain a lot in 43 minutes, but I’m guessing it’ll keep course over time.
Try it (with caution)
Criss Angel’s Magic with the Stars
8 p.m. Saturdays on the CW
I doubt this competition show will last since it’s airing on Saturday nights, but good for Criss Angel for getting a TV deal?
But he looks so bored, and the other two judges are uninterested for the most part as well.
It’s another boring, repetitive competition show, just with magic.
Skip it
Lopez vs. Lopez
8 p.m. Fridays on NBC
George Lopez is back on TV…he’s aged a bit, but the jokes are the same.
This hacky comedy is like taking “The George Lopez Show” with 2020s generational differences and jokes, racial conflicts, and way better lighting. They even makes nods to the original theme song.
It’s simple and predictable, but there are some laughable moments (most were in the previews though).
