Eight years after the series finale of Justified, Timothy Olyphant returns as U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens who left Kentucky for the swampy backwaters of Florida raising his daughter Willa (Vivian Olyphant). Set fifteen years after the end of the original series, Givens may have changed locations but his straight-shooting abrasive personality remains intact (something he’s passed on to his daughter). However, events of the series won’t focus either on Florida or Kentucky but instead Detroit where Givens finds himself temporarily reassigned after a series of comic misadventures attempting to deliver his daughter to camp which are brought up in court by defense attorney Carolyn Wilder (Aunjanue Ellis).

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow

  • Title: Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow
  • wiki: link

“Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow” offers the usual pairing of Lieutenant La’an Noonien-Singh (Christina Chong) and an alternate timeline version of Captain James T. Kirk (Paul Wesley) who end up in the 21st Century searching for someone or something that has altered the timeline to prevent Starfleet from ever being formed and led to a darker future for humankind. We get the usual Star Trek bits of working to fit into the time period and making use of current technology, and the episode helps explain the addition of Pelia (Carol Kane) to the crew earlier this season as her long life allows La’an to go to a younger version of the character for help (and leaves someone other than La’an with some knowledge of what happened).

This Saturday we take a look back the beginnings of The CW’s two-plus decades love affair with super-heroes with the Pilot episode of Smallville. The opening episode introduce to most of the key characters and the basic set up which will be used throughout the season and beyond. We start with a meteor shower crashing into Smallville, Kansas, and the arrival of toddler Kal-El to Earth who is found by Martha (Annette O’Toole) and Jonathan Kent (John Schneider) and adopted keeping close to the classical origin story for Clark Kent (Tom Welling). Jumping forward more than a decade, the show picks up with Clark now in high school aware of some of his base powers, such as invulnerability and speed, but others will be introduced over the show’s ten year run.
