A B-movie horror flick, A Hard Place gives us a group armed robbers (most notably Rachel Amanda Bryant, Kevin Caliber, and Jennifer Michelle Stone II)  who end up in the desolate wilderness after a job stuck in the middle of a war between two neighboring redneck families of monsters. On one side there are the plant-based “Guardians” who roam the woods during the day and on the other are the more vampiric zombies who turn during the full moon. The arrival of the fresh meat also coincides with a solar eclipse which will bring both sets of monsters into battle at full strength.

Bob’s Burgers – Mr. Fischoeder’s Opus

Bob (H. Jon Benjamin) doing a favor for Mr. Fischoeder (Kevin Kline) hasn’t always worked out well for the Belchers, but seeing how he’s willing to waive two months rent, Bob jumps at the chance to cater an event for the local orchestra which Fischoeder will be conducting (although he needs the night to go smoothly to attempt to talk them into performing a traditional peace at a faster tempo).

MacGyver – Pilot

MacGyver Monday takes us back to the very first adventure featuring science-adventurer Angus MacGyver (Richard Dean Anderson). Much of the pieces to MacGyver are already in place in the show’s “Pilot” episode which starts with an unrelated opening gambit of MacGyver saving a crashed pilot and retrieving the circuit board. We don’t have to wait long to get our first MacGyverism as MacGyver builds a contraption to divide the guards’ attention and uses a flare gun as as a rocket thruster to help secure their escape. The episode includes an appearance by Dana Elcar but as a different character than the one who would be incorporated as a recurring character later in the First Season.

Stone Sunday takes us north to the sleepy town of Paradise, Massachusetts and the fourth of Robert B. Parker‘s novels featuring Police Chief Jesse Stone. Stone Cold is similar to Trouble in Paradise in we do get a couple at the heart of the story, however this time the pair aren’t part of a heist crew but serial killers who get off on stalking and killing their victims. Wealthy, bored, and sharing the same murderous fetish, Brianna and Anthony Lincoln shoot down multiple victims in the city until finally targeting Jesse Stone.
