The Resident moves to its new night tonight at 8p on Fox and it takes place a month after the season finale.
Nic (Emily VanCamp) is still dealing with the loss of her family member. In the season finale, her father gave her sister his kidney. The surgeries did not go as smoothly as expected. Therefore, only one survived and we find out who. The loss is so devastating to her that she cannot even step into the hospital. Tonight she goes back for the first time.
Not on a good day. As soon as she walks in, there is an explosion in the basement. Little does she know that Conrad (Matt Czuchry) went down to the basement looking for a lost little boy. Together the two of them and another person are caught in the explosion. Will Nic lose someone else she loves?
Meanwhile, Dr. Bell (Bruce Greenwood) is dealing with the hospital being sold to a conglomerate. They made him take on Barrett Cain (Morris Chestnut) neurosurgeon, who has an ego that puts them all to shame. As we know, no one has a bigger ego than Bell. At least we used to know.
Chastain General is going through a lot of changes this season. I cannot wait to see them play out.

Then at 9p, Empire begins its final season. It will be a figuratively explosive one. The show picks up months after the season finale.
Lucious (Terrence Howard) is in hiding and has a new look. Cookie (Taraji P. Henson) is on a View like show. Andre (Trai Byers) is running Empire but someone comes in claim their stake. He does not want this person there.
The Lyons are trying to figure out who they are without their leader. However, how long can he stay away? Do they need him?
You are just going to have to tune in for a season where anything can happen. Anything but Jussie Smollett coming back to the show this season.

Also at 9p, is FBI that starts off with a Muslim restaurant getting bombed. The case hits close to home for Omar (Zeeko Zaki) who used to eat there all the time as a kid. This is his community in more ways than one.
When an FBI agent comes to him and tells him that there is going to be another attack, he has to go undercover to stop it. Since this is close to him, he will make a mistake. One that could cost him his job.
The episode also looks at what Muslims in America have been dealing with since 9/11. Something they handle very responsibly.
Tune in for an emotional season premiere that really makes people think.

Fox is ready for a new season and they are starting it off with 9-1-1. The episode starts with a car being chased by police. Maddie (Jennifer Love Hewitt) gets a phone call from the guy being chased and he has a good reason for not being able to stop. He can’t. The brakes are not working. Now, everyone has to figure a way to get him to stop the car and get out of it alive. I recently saw an old telemovie about this just scenario because it has actually happened.
That is what Ryan Murphy does. He brings real-life scenarios to his show and gives it his spin of things. Sometimes I wish he didn’t because I still have not been able to use my car wash that was featured on one of his episodes and my car is really dirty.
Back to the show, it takes place months after the season finale and Buck (Oliver Stark) is finally ready to get back to work. That is if he can pass the test. While he waits, he takes Eddie’s (Ryan Guzman) son to the Santa Monica Pier for a nice day out. That is until a tsunami ruins their day. Well, maybe not everything is ripped from the headlines.
Oh and did I mention that LAFD Station 118 go to a nursing home to check out an elderly man who has an unusual STD! Let’s just say we are all going to have the sex talk with older family members after tonight. Condoms prevent more than pregnancy.
I always forget how much I miss 9-1-1 until it is back. And it is back baby.
Then at 9p, it is time for Prodigal Son. When Malcolm Bright (Tom Payne) was a little boy, his father was arrested for being a serial killer. Ever since then he wants to distance himself from his dad. However, he has become an FBI profiler. When they fire him, Gil Arroyo (Lou Diamond Phillips) from the NYPD hires him to work for them.
The first case is a copycat of his dad’s murders. What better source of information than his father. Thus, he goes to his dad for help. Which might not be a good idea because Dr. Martin Whitly (Michael Sheen) gets into his head. That makes him go even deeper into his profiling.
His mother Jessica Whitly (Bellamy Young) and sister Ainsley Whitly (Halston Sage) are going to try to stop him from talking to his father. However, he can’t even he wanted to. His dad knows has his number and he is not going to stop calling.
The more he deals with his dad, the more he remembers his childhood. He starts to remember things that he locked away which will make him question if the people around him knew more than they told him and how much more.
As he is going through all of this, he still has to deal with his job. Getting into the minds of serial killers. Each week, he will solve the modern-day murders as the ones from his past come back to haunt him in this dark thrilling drama.

We are just over a month from the season premiere of The Masked Singer on Fox and today we got to meet a few more of the characters who will entertain our Wednesday nights.
So far we have seen the Butterfly, Egg, Leopard, Flamingo, Fox, Eagle and Skeleton. Today, we were introduced to the Ice Cream, an insect (fly), Purple Rose, a green fur ball my cat wants to play with, a dog and Panda. That is 14 of the 16 contestants who are taking part on the strangest singing competition on television.
Now we are left to wonder who is under those costumes and what significance they have to that person. The egg is going to have a lot of explaining to do. Unless they are a Chef. Things that make you go hmmmm?
The Masked Singer is back on September 25th`with a 2-hour premiere.

We are two and half months away from the start of The Masked Singer’s second season. However, Fox is not making us wait until September 25th to see what some of the contestants look like. They gave us a glimpse of 6 of the 16 contestants and they are a leopard, an egg, a flamingo, a fox, an eagle and death.
I don’t know about, but I am rooting for the egg! I don’t care if they can sing. They chose to be an egg and that makes them eggceptional! Are you eggcited for season 2 now?

We are less than three months away from the television’s fall season and Fox unmasked their schedule. Get your calendars out because you are not going to want to miss the second season debut of the Masked Singer. Who will be under those oversized costumes this season? I cannot wait to see who they will get this season. How do you top Donny Osmond and La Toya Jackson?
I am also looking forward to what Empire’s final season. It is going to be so out of control, we will need to get high to come down from it.
