I’m not sure how many people have been clamoring for a Psych reunion telemovie since this lighthearted buddy comedy was cancelled three years ago – but those of you should be happy, because it’s back. At least for this one-shot sequel that picks up with the same characters, three years later, and aims, rather obviously, to give viewers more of the same. For a full review, see David Hinckley’s All Along the Watchtower.

SYFY'S ‘HAPPY!’ SELLS A CHRISTMAS STORY FROM HELL -- AND IN EIGHT EPISODES NO LESS By Ed Bark

Post-Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Christopher Meloni’s walks on his wild side include Fox’s short-lived but bracing Surviving Jack...and a stint as Donald Trump in Funny Or Die’s The Kellyanne Conway Story. It turns out he was just warming up in the bullpen...

SOUTH PARK By David Bianculli

Tonight’s new episode is called “Splatty Tomato,” and has the President scaring the children of South Park. It’s not that President – but expect lots of topical comedy shots anyway.

HAPPY! By David Bianculli

SERIES PREMIERE: I’m a fan of Christopher Meloni’s, and I’m also a fan of Patton Oswalt’s. So the news that these two have combined for a weird new Syfy series, based on a graphic novel, sounded like a promising prospect. But based on the first two episodes of Happy!, this new series is an extremely acquired taste – and, I admit, one I have yet to acquire.

MR. ROBOT By David Bianculli

This season began with more mysteries and questions than solutions. But now, as we’re slowly starting to get some clarification on some issues and plot lines, I’m not sure it’s all gelling the way it should.

The bad news is, traditionally, viewers of these singing competition shows don’t always show the most taste when eliminating contestants.

WILL & GRACE By David Bianculli

This special holiday episode take the Will & Grace crew back in time – to an era when the photography (at least for the promos) is in black and white, and the racism and other prejudices aren’t much more nuanced. Consider it this show’s “It’s Not Such a Wonderful Life Back Then” installment.
