Cheers to The Neighborhood
for settling in so nicely. Now in its second season, the laugh-out-loud CBS comedy has found its groove, in large part thanks to the odd-couple chemistry of Max Greenfield and Cedric the Entertainer (pictured). Now, how do we get invited to go bowling, guys?
Cheers to Arrowverse’s crossover
for living up to the hype. The first half of The CW’s five-part “Crisis on Infinite Earths” brought Supergirl, The Flash, Arrow, Batwoman, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow and Black Lightning together with more cameos, jokes and action than we thought possible. A heroic feat.
Jeers to A Million Little Things
for committing a huge no-no. Sure, Gary (James Roday, pictured) loves his giant dog Colin, and it was tragic to find out that the mastiff was actually an elderly widow’s lost pet. But to allow Maggie (Allison Miller) to give the woman a look-alike pooch from the pound and secretly keep Colin? That is not a good boy, Gary!
Jeers to The Mandalorian
for coming up short. Action, Easter eggs, baby Yoda— Disney+’s stellar Star Wars series about a galactic bounty hunter (Game of Thrones‘ Pedro Pascal, above) protecting a li’l green dude has it all. Except for acceptable running times. The first two episodes clock in at under an hour each, which is just not enough for a show that’s so out of this world.
