Running out of ways to spinoff their FBI franchise, CBS turns to a new series focused on FBI Agent Bill Goodman (Nick Gehlfuss) assigned to be the liaison with a covert CIA team led by the far less by-the-book Colin Glass (Tom Ellis) working domestically to prevent terrorist attacks. Featuring a cameo by Jeremy Sisto to confirm everything fits into the same shared world as the FBI shows, the premiere provides the basics in highlighting the kinds of operations the CIA is tasked with and the struggle Goodman has initially with Glass and his way of doing things.

Delinquent Schoolgirls

  • Title: Delinquent Schoolgirls
  • IMDb: link

After breaking out of an asylum for the criminally insane, three wacky inmates (Stephen Stucker, Bob Minor, and Michael Pataki) make their way to a strict all-girl boarding school (whose student body was cast mostly from porn stars and centerfolds of the mid 1970s leading to some pretty dreadful acting across the board), by way of pleasuring a sexually-frustrated farmer’s wife. Attempting to play up the humor by making the trio a bit more bumbling than dangerous, there’s still plenty of questionable activity here, much of it which can’t simply be laughed off.
