Found - Pilot

NBC’s Found falls into the genre of increasingly bizarre police consultant shows. Prodigal Son offered us an unstable profiler making some questionable calls by often making use of his serial killer father. Found goes even further down the rabbit hole with Gabi Mosley (Shanola Hampton) secretly keeping her childhood kidnapper (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) chained up her basement using his experience to help with her team who operate with, but outside of, law enforcement in their search for missing children. While the “Pilot” episode keeps the reveal of her house guest a surprise for its final scene, every commercial and promotion gave away this pair being the primary dysfunctional relationship on the show.

Scooby-Doo! - Ghastly Ghost Town

Scooby Sunday takes us back to another mystery involving some meddling kids and their talking dog. Premiering in September 1972, the first episode of The New Scooby-Doo Movies restructured the show into double-sized episodes written around celebrity guest-stars. The results were mixed, and the consistent quality of the animation does suffer as well. “Ghastly Ghost Town” was not one of the stronger episodes in which the gang run into the Three Stooges who have bought an old ghost town and are having trouble turning it into a theme park because of several odd events one of which includes an out-of-control robotic dinosaur.
