Tonight at 8p on The CW, Crazy Ex Girlfriend get some shocking news. Rachel (Rachel Bloom) finds out that her some of her friends are moving away and she feels stuck. She does not know how to handle it, and how she does might cost her her friends.
She is not the only one who has someone moving away from them. Paula’s (Donna Lynne Champlin) is also leaving. She will go full mama bear to keep him, but will she go to far?
Did I mention there is a great country western Broadway musical like number? Why does this show have to end?
Also at 8p but over on Fox on Last Man Standing, Vanessa’s (Nancy Travis) mother comes for a visit. The two women do not get along. Vanessa comes up with a way to pawn her mom on someone else. But when they things gets serious between the two, Vanessa gets jealous. Will she go too far with her jealousy?
Mandy (Molly McCook) and Kyle (Christoph Sanders) try to parent Boyd and realize raising a kid is harder than they thought. How much harder? You have to tune in to find out.
Then at 9p, someone quits Hell’s Kitchen. How will it change the teams? Not only that, one team is kicked out of the kitchen. Can you guess which one?

Cannot blame them. LMS is still on Fridays at 8p, it is just on a new network. New episodes start airing on September 28th. Hopefully, they will be even funnier after a 16-month break. Which I am pretty sure they will be because Fox is a little more liberal with their comedies as compared to ABC who is much more conservative. See what I did there?
A few weeks ago, Fox announced that Molly Ephraim would not be returning to the revival of Last Man Standing. Today, they announced who will be taking over her role and Molly McCook is the new Mandy Baxter. When the news got out, she wrote “I am speechless and overwhelmed. So excited for this opportunity. Hope I do y’all proud ♥️.”
The actress has recurred on The Ranch, next year she will be seen in several episodes of The Fosters spinoff Good Trouble and has guest starred on several shows. McCook’s father John plays Eric Forrester on The Bold and the Beautiful since 1987, a soap opera she also appeared on.
No word if she will dye her blonde hair black like Ephraim’s. I have a feeling she won’t and they will find a way to make jokes about it.
Back in May, Fox announced that they picked up Last Man Standing for another season, a year after ABC cancelled it. It seemed like all of the cast was going to make the move, but turns out they are not.
TV Line is reporting that Molly Ephraim, who plays Tim Allen’s middle daughter, and her TV nephew, Flynn Morrison, have decided not to rejoin the show on its new home. Instead, their roles will be recast.
This is not the first time they have recast a lead role. Alexandra Krosney, who played the oldest daughter, the first season, was replaced by Amanda Fuller for the second season and is still playing the part. When it comes to the youngest daughter on the show, the site reports that Kaitlyn Dever is still in discussions for a recurring role. Her character left for military school, so her disappearance could easily be explained.
When it comes to who is coming back besides Allen, so his TV wife Nancy Travis, their eldest daughter, Fuller and her TV husband Jordan Masterson, their TV brother-in-law Christoph Sanders as his TV boss Hector Elizondo and finally so is the Baxters’ next-door neighbor Jonathan Adams.
When it comes to the departures, I will miss Ephraim. Not many people could make a self-centered character so lovable.

Now that Fox has picked up Last Man Standing, a Home Improvement revival is on indefinite hold. But if it were to happen, this is how Patricia Richardson pictures the plotline.
She said, “I thought if HI came back Jill and Tim wouldn’t live in the same house because they’ve separated or divorced. Tim has moved somewhere else and has another talkative neighbor. Getting them back together becomes focus of show. No politics. But we know it’s a metaphor for country.”
Does that sound like something you would watch? I kind of like it and could picture their three sons trying to get them back together.
UPDATE: Patricia Richardson added to her tweet, “It’s important to realize here folks this was just what I had been thinking, how could this happen without Wilson, possibly without Taran( no longer acts) and w/the edge the show had when it was good. It’s not going to happen.Tim always wanted the return of Last Man Standing. HATE the politics.Any idea that an Archie Bunker type person can be smart(?) likeable(?)while being homophobic and/or racist is a stretch.But I love the family/friend dynamics on LMS.The love they all display for each other,that Tim shares with them,is so truthful and beautiful.”
In case you were wondering why they would need a new neighbor, sadly, Earl Hindman, who played Wilson, passed away from lung cancer in 2003.
