No one has time to watch all the new fall TV shows, so I’ll help you out.
Course, many of them weren’t worth watching.
Here are my quick takes.
Bob ❤️ ️Abishola
8:30 p.m. Mondays on CBS
The only part of this show that doesn’t feel outdated is the emoji in the title.
Skip
Prodigal Son
9 p.m. Mondays on Fox
“White Collar” meets “CSI” with a father/son version of “Bates Motel.”
Proceed with caution
All Rise
9 a.m. Mondays on CBS
It’s “Drop Dead Diva” without the soap-opera feel but with commentary on race and women in the workplace.
Proceed with caution
Bluff City Law
10 p.m. Mondays on NBC
I would’ve rather wasted another half-hour on this father-daughter courtroom melodrama as part of a TBS Saturday movie marathon than watch an entire series.
Skip
mixed-ish
9 p.m. Tuesdays on ABC
This overdone spinoff basically mimics “black-ish” with B-list white actors (looking at you, Gary Cole).
Skip
Emergence
10 p.m. Tuesdays on ABC
While this sci-fi, crime and mystery show had a lot of hype around it, it would’ve been better as a limited series.
Skip
Stumptown
10 p.m. Wednesdays on ABC
Clearly ABC wants this graphic novel-based show to succeed (its music budget alone must be huge with all the 80s hits), and it’s nice to see a woman leading the chase.
Try
The Unicorn
8:30 p.m. Thursdays on CBS
I’m not the right audience for this, but this new-phase-of-life comedy seems to have some heart.
Try
Perfect Harmony
8:30 p.m. Thursdays on NBC
A Simon Cowell type gets a glee club filled with so many archetypes you won’t care about many of them.
Proceed with caution
Carol’s Second Act
9:30 p.m. Thursdays on CBS
“Scrubs” meets the movie “Second Act” with a lot of stars you’ll recognize.
Skip
Sunnyside
9:30 p.m. Thursdays on NBC
This political comedy is supposed to be about immigration and citizenship, but it has nothing new to say, especially with its cast of caricatures.
Skip
Evil
10 p.m. Thursdays on CBS
The creators of “The Good Wife” thought they’d take a stab at religion, and all we got is a courtroom drama with a heavy dose of “The Exorcist.”
Skip
Bless the Harts
8:30 p.m. Sundays on Fox
Animation Domination gets another flop in this “The King of Queens” meets “The Simpsons” comedy.
