Are you the type of highbrow masochist who wept on a weekly basis through six seasons of Parenthood? Well, YOU'RE IN LUCK! NBC has a new ensemble drama about life and family and the love that brings the utmost joy and maximum amount of ugly crying. This Is Usfollows the stories of two young parents (Mandy Moore and Milo Ventimiglia), siblings grappling with the personal crises of health and career (Justin Hartley and Chrissy Metz), and a grown man (Sterling K. Brown) in search of his biological father. Oh, and they're all 36 and have the same birthday, so expect that and more to tie them together.

Luke Cage has been one of this fall's most anticipated shows since last fall – since Mike Colter made his debut as a sullen superhuman caught in the chaos of Jessica Jones's life. Luke Cagegets us acquainted with the man behind the muscles, a man dealing with grief, loss and abandonment and who just wants "to be left alone."

You know that processing errors are too prevalent when they've spread upstairs to the afterlife. That's the oversight that leads to Eleanor (Kristen Bell) ending up in "the good place" after she dies, instead of the bad one.
NBC's comedy aim has been fairly off in the past several years, but The Good Placecreator Michael Schur wrote for Parks and Recreation and The Office, two of the networks last great comedies, so expect heartwarming moments amidst laugh-out-loud gaffs. Schur's vision of paradise includes endless drinking without hangovers and curse words rendered unspeakable, and Bell's impish intrusion into this world is the kind of juxtaposition that makes TV comedy...well, good.

That bleak worst case scenario comes true, and Kirkman abruptly becomes President, faced with a shaken staff and the task of figuring out who attacked his country.
