OK, it's not anything special, but Cobie Smulders is her usual wonderful self, and she's good enough to drive the show. A creep who hits on the heroine and gets totally shut down and outed as a fraud by her keen sense of perception? Obviously. Tough private investigator doing it her own way? Indeed! A tone light enough to drink rosé to but not dark enough to make you dive into a pint of ice cream? Yup. If you dipped a towel into a pool of all of ABC's shows and wrung it out, you'd get Stumptown.

The Kings' penchant for weirdness that blossomed in BrainDead and The Good Fight is in full bloom here, with possessed murderers, exorcisms, and a urinating demon (see?

Here's the logline that would normally keep you from watching Evil: A priest-in-training ( Luke Cage's Mike Colter) and a skeptical psychologist ( Westworld's Katja Herbers) investigate unexplained acts of evil in this CBS drama with procedural DNA. Mike Colter and Katja Herbers, Evil Elizabeth Fisher, CBS Save yourself the trouble of sifting through them and take our word for it: These are the five best new fall broadcast shows (if we were forced to choose five). But there are only five - maybe four - that are worth your time, which we discovered by watching every single new broadcast pilot headed to your living room. There are also a whole bunch of immigrants, one superhero, and another branch of the Black-ish family tree. As usual, there are plenty of lawyers and a doctor, but surprisingly no cops (the workaround now are outside consultants who work with cops, of which there are a few). Yes, of the 16 new shows coming to you before Halloween, about a quarter of them are watchable. Summer was fun and all, but I think we can all agree that it was lacking one big thing: lots and lots of new television shows! Fall is here to fix that, with the big broadcast networks doling out their usual crop of shows that have been tested before focus groups of people who have the complete opposite taste as you.
