[ # ] NBC’s spring is Crowded with a lot of good shows!
January 22nd, 2016 under NBC, The Carmichael Show


NBC announced their spring lineup and you better get your DVR ready for all the new shows you are going to be recording!
First there is Steve Harvey’s Little Big Shots and the comedy/variety show that highlights the amazing things kids can do debuts on Sunday, March 13th at 8p. Then at 9p on that night, The Carmichael Show, the critical acclaimed comedy that makes you spit laugh, is back for a must not miss second season. The following Sunday at 9:30p, Crowded moves in to the lineup and you will immediately fall in love with this sitcom about millennials moving back home with their parents. On Wednesday, March 22, Heartbeat, the medical drama with heart, takes over the 8p timeslot. Finally on April 7th, Game of Silence, a mysterious drama about revenge, closes out Thursday nights.
I have seen all but Little Big Shots, and NBC has a really strong Spring lineup with several shows you don’t want to miss.
To read descriptions of the show, then

“THE CARMICHAEL SHOW” — Sunday, March 13, 9 p.m. with back-to-back episodes for week one; preview episode Tuesday, March 8, 10:30 p.m.
Inspired by the life of comedian Jerrod Carmichael, the series follows Jerrod and his opinionated North Carolina family as they navigate topics that all families face today in America. Nothing is too uncomfortable to explore, including police protests, guns and religion. Jerrod often finds himself debating such issues with his old-school father, Joe (David Alan Grier), his devoutly religious mother, Cynthia (Loretta Devine), his progressive live-in girlfriend, Maxine (Amber Stevens West), his recently separated brother, Bobby (Rel Howery), and Bobby’s estranged and outspoken wife, Nekeisha (Tiffany Haddish). And somewhere in the middle of all of their disagreeing is the heart of this family.
The first season of “The Carmichael Show” received strong reviews, including the Los Angeles Times (“Devine and Grier are unfailingly funny”) and New York Newsday (“one smartly crafted comedy”).
The March 8 preview episode of “The Carmichael Show” at 10:30 p.m. will immediately follow a half-hour preview of “Little Big Shots,” which will be preceded by a two-hour episode of “The Voice.”

“CROWDED” — Sunday, March 20, 9:30 p.m.; preview Tuesday, March 15, 10-11 p.m.
From the executive producers of “Hot in Cleveland” and “Grimm” comes this very timely comedy that proves life is crazy with a full house, especially the second time around.
After 20 years of parenting, empty nesters Mike (Patrick Warburton, “Seinfeld”) and Martina (Carrie Preston, “True Blood”) are finally reclaiming their wild side. But when both of their two grown daughters (Miranda Cosgrove, “iCarly,” and Mia Serafino, “Shameless”) unexpectedly move back in and Mike’s parents (Stacy Keach, “NCIS: New Orleans,” and Carlease Burke, “Switched at Birth”) scratch their plans to spend their golden years in Florida, their roost is full again.
The two preview episodes of “Crowded” at 10 p.m. March 15 will be coming out of a two-hour episode of “The Voice.”

“HEARTBEAT” — Wednesday, March 23, 8 p.m.; preview Tuesday, March 22, 9 p.m.
“Heartbeat” is a character-driven medical series that follows the professional and personal life of world-renowned heart transplant surgeon Dr. Alex Panttiere (Melissa George, “The Slap”). There is nothing conventional about Dr. Panttiere, who is as cutting edge and unorthodox in the OR as she is with the two men in her life. Her approach to medicine is without boundaries, as is her approach to everything else in her world.
Between Dr. Panttiere’s hectic hospital life where she is caught between two brilliant but stubborn surgeons (Dave Annable and Don Hany) and her household of two kids and a gay rock star ex-husband (Joshua Leonard), Alex is constantly striving to overcome numerous daily obstacles and be the best mother and doctor possible.
On March 22, “The Voice” will serve as a lead-in to a preview of “Heartbeat.”

“GAME OF SILENCE” — Thursday, April 7, 10 p.m.
Four best friends have a dark secret they thought was buried 25 years ago, but they soon discover that you can’t hide your past forever. From the executive producers of “CSI” and “Friday Night Lights” comes a gripping new drama about friendship, love, revenge and the moral dilemma of how far one will go in the pursuit of justice.
Jackson Brooks (David Lyons, “Revolution”) is a successful attorney who seems to have it all. He’s engaged to a wonderful woman who happens to be his boss, Marina (Claire Van Der Boom, “Hawaii Five-O”), and he’s on the fast track to becoming partner at his firm, but his world is turned upside down when his long-lost childhood friends unexpectedly reappear after 25 years.
Jackson, Gil Harris (Michael Raymond James, “True Blood”) and Shawn Cook (Larenz Tate, “Rush”) always stuck together, like brothers. They spent their boyhood summers in the small town of Brennan, Texas, swimming in the quarry, shooting bottle rockets and doing everything they could to mine the fun out of small-town life. But their idyllic world turned chaotic one fateful summer afternoon when a well-intentioned and heroic attempt to save their friend Jessie (Bre Blair, “Last Vegas”) from her alcoholic mother ultimately cost the 13-year-old boys nine months at Quitman Youth Detention Facility where their lives were changed forever.
Now, 25 years later, the nightmare of the worst nine months of their lives has resurfaced, uprooting a mystery even deeper than their buried past. The brotherhood must now band together to right the wrongs of their shared past — a journey that will push the limits of their loyalty and ignite an unquenchable thirst for revenge.
