The CW
Valor
The boundaries between military discipline and human desire are tested on a US Army base that houses an elite unit of helicopter pilots trained to perform clandestine international and domestic missions. The drama unfolds in the present as well as in flashbacks to a failed mission involving one of the first female pilots in the unit, ultimately uncovering layers of personal and government/military secrets, and leading to a season-long plan to rescue a group of MIA soldiers.

The series will be told primarily through the perspectives of two women at odds: Fallon Carrington — daughter of billionaire Blake Carrington — and her soon-to-be stepmother, Cristal — a Hispanic woman marrying into this WASP family and America’s most powerful class. In an age where dynasties appear everywhere — from reality TV to the polling booths — this epic drama features the one percent in all its glitz and gloss, while exposing the dark underbelly: a corrupt world built on backroom deals, betrayal, and, in some cases, murder.
Team: Josh Schwartz, Stephanie Savage, and Sallie Patrick will write and executive-produce with Brad Silberling and original Dynasty creators Esther Shapiro and Richard Shapiro.
Cast: Grant Show, Nathalie Kelley, Elizabeth Gillies, Sam Adegoke, Robert Christopher Riley, Alan Dale, Rafael de la Feuente.

Hmmm, tough one... most look pretty bad.

I'd have to pick The Mayor with Kevin (Probably) Saves The World, and 9JKL close behind.

I would hope it would be Young Sheldon; The BBT character's childish antics as an adult don't drive nearly the same plot points they would on an actual child. Plus, they literally cannot (in universe) develop the character, unless the BBT universe involves him forgetting every childhood social lesson by the time he becomes an adult.

Something on ABC.

I would say Wisdom of the Crowd, but I'd imagine CBS is putting a ton of money in this and will really try to make it work.

Ghosted. It's a scifi show with cult hit potential. Fox always cancels those.

Not to be that guy, but network TV really sucks right now. None of those shows is remotely interesting to me. I've checked out most of the Marvel Netflix shows, but The Inhumans just looks cheap and second rate.
The only network shows we watch now are The Good Place and Saturday Night Live.

9JKL

But most of them sound like shite. Some will limp along because the network put money behind them by hiring a bigger actor, and others will coast because the network will want to avoid catching shite for cancelling a minority-cast or religious-themed show too soon.

I can imagine some exec saying of Kevin (Probably) Saves the World, "Just give it two more weeks, and even Joel Osteen and Bill O'Reilly will be calling for us to kill it."

The 9JKL commercial during football last weekend basically went "ITS A COMEDY CALL 9JKL. WATCH IT!!"


Like the commercial gave no actual context to what the show is about

Ghosted sounds like a gay X-Files. Won't even watch. Young Sheldon will be a snoozer too.
