Tonight at 8p on ABC, Jackie (Laurie Metcalf) gets her way on The Conners. She wants Dan (John Goodman) to build her a chicken coop in his backyard. When the kids ask him to do it, he begrudgingly agrees. She has an ulterior motive for getting him to do it. How will he react when she tells him what it is.
Meanwhile, Becky (Lecy Goranson) is dealing with the costs of having a baby. When she gets an offer she cannot refuse, she has to decide if she wants to take it. While she decides if it is the right choice, she looks at her life. Making that alternative sound even better. You will never believe who helps her make up her mind.
Tonight’s episode proves that The Conners can be as good as Roseanne was the first time around.

Ever since I saw New Amsterdam over the summer, I have said this is my favorite new show of the season. Every week, I keep saying that. Tonight at 10p on NBC, it brings a very powerful episode that will stay with you until returns in 2019.
Max has decided to go the way of clinical trials to beat his cancer. While Dr. Sharpe is against it, she will do what her patient and boss wants done. She will reach out the guy running the trial to get Max on them. Will she be successful?
Meanwhile, Max (Ryan Eggold) gets a shock when the woman who received his sister’s heart comes into the hospital. Her heart is failing and we do everything in his power to keep the last part of his sister alive. Will he be able to do the impossible?
Iggy (Tyler Labine) has a transitioning patient come in to get some surgery. The teen wants to get the top done, but the parents are against it because their child is too young. Iggy hears both sides of the argument and sides with the parents. The teenager does something to get back at the doctor and the effect might cost him a lot.
All leading to an ending that will take your breath away. But I have said too much.
One last thing, I just love the way that Eggold can say more with his face than any other actor on television. It is its own character. Plus, it is very easy on the eyes.
Jensen Ackles and Danneel Harris opened their Austin home to Architectural Digest and we got a rare glimpse of their three kids. Justice, 5, and twins Zeppelin and Arrow, nearly 2, are getting so big. They are also a perfect mix of their parents.
On Supernatural he lives such an abnormal lifestyle, thankfully he comes home to a normal one. The one thing both of his lives have in common is a strong family bond. What more can you ask for?
Christian Bale played a stick thin guy in The Machinist, but now his weight has gone the other way for him to play Dick Cheney in Vice. In this photo from the movie that comes out on Christmas Day, you can see what a transformation he underwent to star as the former vice president. You cannot even see any resemblance of the American Psycho here. Most of the time, the eyes give away the actor, but not here. Pretty impressive.
Tatiana Maslany played so many different clones on Orphan Black, but which one was her favorite? Yesterday on Watch What Happens Live, she told Andy Cohen it was Helena. Her reason is that “She was a serial killer from the Ukraine who ate everything in sight.” I think she liked playing her because she was able to go as crazy as she wanted to with that character.
When it comes to my favorite clone, it was Allison. She looked so innocent, but she was far from it. Who was yours?
