What To Watch Tonight? With excitement (and not a little trepidation), we will be sitting down to watch RENT on Fox, the latest Live musical broadcast to come to network TV. We love this show so much, we’re hoping Fox doesn’t fuck it up. If musicals aren’t for you, you have Supergirl, True Detective, Outlander, Counterpart, and Crashing . What are you watching?
Not on our list tonight but perhaps of interest, the 25th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards will be airing on TBS all night. The SAGs will be hosted by Megan Mullally, and Alan Alda will receive a Life Achievement Award.
8pm Hour:
1st Choice: RENT. Live. “The Tony Award- and Pulitzer Prize-winning musical is a re-imagining of Puccini’s “La Bohème.” Set in New York City’s gritty East Village, it tells the story of seven artists struggling to follow their dreams during a time of great social and political turmoil.” Fox
2nd Choice: Supergirl. “Kara joins Nia on a trip to Nia’s hometown to visit her family during the town’s annual Harvest Festival. While home, Nia’s mother encourages her daughter to embrace her destiny. Meanwhile, Alex deals with a street drug that is turning people violent and giving them temporary superpowers.” The CW
3rd Choice: Outlander. “Season finale. Jamie, Claire and Young Ian’s attempt to rescue Roger from his Mohawk captors goes awry when a ghost from Claire’s past lays waste to their plan. Meanwhile, Brianna worries Claire, Jamie and Roger might not return.” Starz
9pm Hour:
1st Choice: RENT. Continues on Fox.
2nd Choice: True Detective. “Hays and West see a possible connection between the local church and the Purcell crimes. As the detectives search for one suspect and round up another for interrogation, Woodard is targeted by a vigilante group.” HBO
3rd Choice: Valley of the Boom. “Episode 5 -Segfault. A close look at “the culture of speculation, innovation and debauchery that led to the rapid inflation and burst of the 1990s tech bubble. The series features interviews with many of the people depicted in the dramatized portions of the production in addition to other Internet personalities such as Mark Cuban and Arianna Huffington.” Nat Geo
10pm Hour:
1st Choice: RENT. Continues on Fox.
2nd Choice: Crashing. “Pete feels like his time away from New York has taken him out of the scene, so he accepts an offer to perform at a Jewish show, where Elon Gold and Modi question his impulsive behavior with a woman he met earlier that day.” HBO
3rd Choice: Valley of the Boom. Episode 6 -fatal error. “Jim Barksdale continues the antitrust case, and Pixelon’s tech fails.” Nat Geo
What To Watch Tonight? Yikes! After a few weeks of pretty good choices on Friday night, tonight hits like a ton of bricks. No new MacGyver, Blindspot, The Blacklist or Hawaii Five-0 kind of guts the night. The Top Pick to Watch Tonight is Dynasty, which is back from Winter break. Or, maybe you’re needing an Olympics event fix and you’re watching Ladies’ Figure Skating: US Championships. Maybe Hell’s Kitchen? What are you watching?

The Magicians is back! Well, the show is back but most of our magicians are still stuck in other identities. You can catch up on where we left off last season with our deep dive recap and review here.
In short, magic is back in the world but it’s being rationed by The Library overlords. The magicians, other than Alice who is in Library prison, have been mind scrambled by a Dean Fogg spell. Oh, and the Monster that lived in the castle at the end of the world is inhabiting Eliot’s body. No bigs.
On to the Season 4 premiere of The Magicians, “A Flock of Lost Birds” … BEWARE OF SPOILERS!

Last week on The Passage, we learned a government-funded project, Project NOAH, was making “not vampires,” accidentally, in an attempt to find a super cure for a Chinese avian flu which will soon hit the United States. In order to further their research, Project NOAH tests their serums on human subjects, people that society will not miss when they go missing. Enter Amy Bellafonte, a ten-year old girl that was recently orphaned, and Brad Wolgast, the man tasked to kidnap Amy and bring her to Project NOAH’s lush Colorado compound. Brad has a change of heart and now, him and Amy are on the run from Project NOAH and the military capabilities of the United States.
Catch up on ALL of the action from last week’s pilot with our deep dive recap, here. Now, on to tonight’s deep dive recap and review of The Passage, episode 2, “You Owe Me A Unicorn” …. BEWARE OF SPOILERS!
