Broadcast TV really isn’t what it used to be.
Here are my quick takes on the lastest new fall TV shows (spoiler, it’s not great):
Kids say the darndest things
8 p.m. Sundays on ABC
You’d think this show would be cute, but it feels stale and even Tiffany Haddish can’t fully save it.
Proceed with caution
Almost family
9 p.m. Wednesdays on Fox
This dramedy seemed heartwarming, but the premise is so disgusting it ruined the potential sweet moments.
Skip it
Batwoman
8 p.m. Sundays on the CW
While the next in the CW superhero show in the lineup is formulaic, the pilot ends on a shocking (to me) twist that could make future episodes enjoyable.
Proceed with caution
Nancy Drew
9 p.m. Wednesdays on the CW
This show, based on the book series, is basically “Riverdale” but with a true mystery focus…and bad acting.
Skip it
Let’s hope the cable/streaming new shows are better (I’ll be checking out “The Politician” soon)
