Indeed! Speechless is the best new comedy of 2016. Minnie Driver is and always has been great!

So ABC seems to have taken the approach of identifying a segment (Asian/90s, gay/Irish, handicapped, Jewish/80s, etc.) and build a show around it. Overall it's worked very well. The Goldbergs, Fresh Off the Boat and Speechless are all great shows, but I'm just not feeling it for The Real O'Neals. Maybe it's just that the writing is bad?

PS, a close runner up for best new comedy would be The Good Place. Frozen's Kristen Bell is a fairly good actress in her own right too.

I'm trying to watch Conviction and Matt LeBlanc's new show. I forgot Matt's last week and Conviction last night. I hear there's going to be a Raven reboot at some point. Why??

Now that we have a toddler and DH and I work opposite hours, we don't have much time for TV watching together :(
I don't think we will be picking up any new shows this fall. We still have a backlog of existing shows we are interested in or need to finish. I was interested in Timeless-alas, I don't have the time ;)

Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection, the lovers, the dreamers, and me.

I find Timeless to be a bit uneven. Some of the episodes have been very interesting, like the Las Vegas 1961 episode, but then you get an episode like tonight on the French and Indian war which did not capture my interest. Next week's episode is about the moon landing, so I have hope it will be better.
