Home sweet home: Take a trip through time with 'The Kids Are Alright'
Jack Gore stars in "The Kids Are Alright"
Pet Vet Dream Team, on CBS
Dr. Lisa Chimes and Dr. Andrew Marchevsky treat injured and sick pets at the Small Animal Specialist Hospital. Along with exotic animal expert Tim Faulkner, the vets educate viewers on a range of veterinary procedures and practices in this fascinating series.
Q: Why hasn't anyone rebooted "Miami Vice" yet? All the other old shows are getting redone, but none was as big as "Vice."
As a matter of fact, "Miami Vice" is getting a reboot. Or, at least, it might be.
Action star Vin Diesel announced in August 2017 that he was planning a reboot of the series (presumably so he could star in it), working with writer Chris Morgan, with whom he previously worked on several Fast and the Furious movies (and those films definitely owe a debt to the fast-car worship of "Miami Vice").
Blindspot, on NBC
The adventure continues for Remi (Jane Doe) Briggs (Jaimie Alexander) in the new season. In this action drama, she and FBI agent Kurt Weller (Sullivan Stapleton) have worked to unravel a dangerous conspiracy. Rob Brown and Audrey Esparza also star.
Will & Grace, on NBC
No matter what happens, best friends Grace (Debra Messing) and Will (Eric McCormack) know they can count on each other. Meanwhile, friends Karen (Megan Mullally) and Jack (Sean Hayes) shake things up with their antics.
Modern Family, on ABC
Jay (Ed O'Neill) and Gloria (Sofia Vergara) face unique challenges as they raise little Joe (Jeremy Maguire) while Manny (Rico Rodriguez) heads back to college this season. The show also follows the lives of Jay's grown children, Claire (Julie Bowen) and Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson).
Q: Does Neil Patrick Harris sing the theme for "A Series of Unfortunate Events"?
Much like his character, Count Olaf, in the sort-of children's series "A Series of Unfortunate Events," Neil Patrick Harris is a multi-talented master thespian. That means he's a singer as well as an actor, as you can tell when you hear him do the show's theme.
It makes practical sense to get the show's star to do the theme in this case, because it changes repeatedly as the plot advances.
Just a number: The stars of 'The Cool Kids' prove you're only as old as you feel
Leslie Jordan stars in "The Cool Kids"
Lethal Weapon, on Fox
While Murtaugh (Damon Wayans) prepares to celebrate his 30th anniversary with the LAPD, he and his new partner Cole (Seann William Scott) work to bring down a gang running a lottery scam. Keesha Sharp and Kevin Rahm also star in this series that’s based on a beloved film franchise.
Q: I heard a rumor that the guy who made "The Big Bang Theory" also wrote the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" theme. Is that true?
If there's a sitcom version of an earworm, "The Big Bang Theory" is it. It's successful, memorable, infinitely rewatchable, but critics don't like it. Thus, it's a lot like the theme from the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" -- anyone who saw even one episode of the smash-hit '80s cartoon can hum at least part of the theme, but it's doubtful they'd say they actually like it.
It makes some sense, then, that Chuck Lorre created both.
