Kicking off the Small Screen Diaries for the day, let’s take a look at the week ahead and some things you might be interested in, because even though network television is not nearly as prominent as it used to be, it still means a ton of shows are headed your way, all at relatively the same time, either brand new or returning for new seasons. That is very much the case this week, with CBS returning essentially its entire lineup, including hits like Tracker, Elsbeth, Fire Country, Sheriff Country, Boston Blue, FBI, CIA, NCIS, NCIS: Origins and Marshals, as well … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: 10/03/26
