BLACK-ISH Wednesdays, 9:30 p.m.
Colbert Show writer was going to be the showrunner on this Anthony Anderson/Tracee Ellis Ross vehicle but he got tapped to replace Colbert, who’s replacing Letterman. So we’ll see how it goes, but the trailer made us LOL.
GOTHAM Fox, Mondays
We are already loving Jada’s red-tipped hair as Fish Mooney, a new villain in the town of Gotham, that little place that spawned a guy named Batman in the DC Comics universe. Though critics are already questioning how a show about Batman’s origins will be missing a grown-up Batman, we thought the trailer was very cool.
POWER Starz Saturday, June 7 @ 9 p.m.
You won’t have to wait until fall for this show, backed by 50 Cent. Although it looks strikingly similar to Empire thematically, it has a few differences – for one Omari Hardwick is in it, and yes, there are plenty of barechested shots of him here, too. (You’ll remember his bare chest and tatts were almost another character on Being Mary Jane.)
