Before Bruce Greenwood was the CEO at Chastain Park Memorial Hospital on The Resident, he was just a doctor on St Elsewhere. He looks the same now as he did when he was 31 in that 1987 episode.
CBS starts off the night with the new comedy The Neighborhood that stars several sitcom veterans.
Dave Johnson (Max Greenfield), his wife Gemma (Beth Behrs) and their son Grover (Hank Greenspan) move from a small town in Michigan to a predominately African-American town in Los Angeles. Gemma got a job as a principal at a nearby progressive school and that is why they moved there.
Their next-door neighbor Calvin (Cedric the Entertainer) is the African-American version of Archie Bunker. He cannot stand his new neighbor, who is overly nice. Thankfully, for Dave, Calvin’s wife (Tichina Arnold) and their sons Malcolm (Sheaun McKinney) and Marty (Marcel Spears) will do everything they can to get the two men to get along. Some things are easier said than done.
Tonight, Calvin holds a yard-e-que and invited the Johnsons and Dave makes things much worse for the families. Next week, they both have different parenting skills and their sons benefit for getting some fatherly advice from the other one. Then for the fourth episode, Dave hosts a party and Calvin closes it down.
When you put four funny comedy stars on one sitcom, you get a show that we can all enjoy. It has a lot of potential and I cannot wait to see what else they do with it.

Then at 8:30p, Happy Together, a sitcom, loosely based on Harry Styles, comes to CBS. Out of all of the new sitcoms, this one us my favorite one. After watching the first three episodes, this one made me laugh the hardest in each episode.
Jake (Damon Wayans Jr.) and Claire (Amber Stevens West) are a married couple, who have become a boring old couple even though they are only in their 30’s.
Jake is an accountant whose client is Cooper James (Felix Mallard), the hottest pop star of the year. He just broke up with his girlfriend and the paps are following him around to get a scoop. James decides to hideout at Jake’s house because no one would expect him to be there.
Cooper James (Felix Mallard) has been living like a rock star for so long, he does not remember what it is like to be normal. Jake and Claire have become so dull, they do not remember what it is like to be cool. Together, they will help each other to find what they were missing. Especially, now that he is moved in with them.
Wayans Jr. and West are so good at being corny, you cannot help but to laugh with them. Meanwhile, Mallard is just so likable that you cannot help but to love him. Plus, he is east on the eyes. Together the three deliver a show that will make you laugh until it hurts.
Talking about deliver, West is pregnant with her first child in real life and they are no writing her pregnancy into the show. For a fun drinking game, drink every time they try to hide her growing belly.

Also at 8p but over on Fox is The Resident. The episode starts off with someone getting arrested and that person hoping that they will get off with the crime. If they do not, then they have to report it to the Georgia Medical Board. Ending their career.
Now that Conrad’s (Matt Czuchry) dad owns the Chastain Park Memorial he wants to make it a better place for his son. Therefore, Marshall (Glenn Morshower) holds a meeting with Conrad and Dr. Bell (Bruce Greenwood) to see how they can do that. Conrad wants to put patients first, while Dr. Bell knows you cannot do that without money, lots and lots of money. The two men are adamant about what they want, and Marshall is stuck in the middle.
Meanwhile, a teenage boy comes in after getting into an accident and his parents are very wealthy. Dr. Bell sees dollar signs, while Conrad sees a boy he needs to save. How far will they go to save him and how much will it cost his family?
Now that Devin (Manish Dayal) is a second resident, he needs to train some of the first years. Some of the other doctors compare him to Conrad, and he does not want to be like his mentor. Will he be?
Each medical drama has their own focus and this one is about working in a hospital, saving patients, operating a hospital and doctors in love. It is the perfect combination and not too soapy.

Back in the ’80s, Brian Robbins was an actor who starred in Head of the Class. Then in the mid-’90s, he went from in front of the camera to behind it with shows like All That, Keenan & Kel, The Amanda Show, Smallville, What I Like About You, One Tree Hill, Fred: The Show, AwesomenessTV and so many more.
In a way, you can say that his early shows helped to launch Nickelodeon. I guess Viacom noticed all he has done for them in almost 25 years, so they made him President of the network effective immediately.
Hopefully, he will do revivals of some of his classic shows with the original casts on his new network. Who wouldn’t like to see All That again? I like to see that gang together again.
The Supernatural set seems like it would be a lot of fun to work on. Now we know that it is a funny set too.
That is because the other day Jensen Ackles, Jared Padalecki and a few other smacked a few cream pies into Misha Collins’ face. I am not exactly sure why, but Sam Winchester wrote, “Donation link is here!!! http://foodbank.bc.ca/rtc18_supernatural.”
At least it was for a good cause. Is it just me or does Castiel look like The Joker when he smiles with all of that whipped cream on his face? I know he is too good looking to play the role, but still.
When it comes to their show that is going into its 14th season, it will be back next Thursday for us to enjoy again.
I don’t know about you, but I find shows like Might Tiny Houses on HGTV really interesting. I enjoy watching how they convert these little spaces into livable homes. Not that I could live in one, but the math behind it amazes me.
I am not the only one because Booking.com teamed up with Kevin Hart to make a tiny house that is just 268 square feet. A home that is the perfect size for him. Although, I am not sure if his good friend The Rock came by to visit if he would be able to fit in it. Do you?
Is Hart going to live in that house that makes him seem like a giant? Nope, according to Today, if you go to Elizabethtown, Pa, then you can stay in it. Why there? Because Tiny States is the largest community of tiny homes. Isn’t that an oxymoron?
