Suits is back—west coast style—with Stephen Amell, Josh McDermitt, and Maggie Grace tackling high-stakes deals, personal grudges, at the expense of any actual courtroom drama. The pilot of Suits LA shoves us headfirst into Ted Black’s law firm, where the intrigue is about who’s defecting (or double-crossing) and what's haunting Ted from his past. From messy mergers to family ghosts and double agents, this 43-minute ride packs in so many subplots it feels like an entire season’s worth of chaos.

Robert De Niro headlines this new political conspiracy thriller as a retired president called back into action after a massive cyberattack devastates the nation. Joined by Jesse Plemons, Lizzy Caplan, and Joan Allen, Zero Day boasts a star-studded cast—but does it deliver on its doomsday premise or settle for a slow-moving, boomer fantasy?

The CW’s new crime procedural stars Leighton Meester and Luke Cook as a sibling detective duo solving small-town cases under the watchful eye of their police-chief dad (Clancy Brown). Tune in as we discuss the pilot episode, "Peace in the Valley," where a botched pharmacy robbery turns deadly in a town of fewer than 4,000 people. Though it's a lighthearted spin on a tried-and-true family-cop formula, the small cast and low expectations make this an interesting show to compare, review, and rate. We also discuss what it means for The CW’s evolving lineup. Welcome to Today’s Episode!

Happy Valentine’s Day! Cassandra is a new German series about a ’70s-era AI house that springs to life the moment a family moves in. It's an updated version of steampunk where, instead of vintage-industrial tech, you have antique smart devices.

Joseph Bennett (Scavengers Reign) and Greg Daniels (The Office) have a new show out called Common Side Effects, an offbeat comedy centered around corporate paranoia and miraculous mushrooms.

Next thing he knows, he's got a target on his back and the DEA on his tail. It’s a darkly absurd mashup of conspiracy thriller and nature worship, ugly characters with breathtaking environments.
