PARENTHOOD
NBC, 10:00 p.m. ET
Ray Romano, as Hank, has been an instantly valuable asset to this already strong dramatic series – I hope the writers find a way to keep him around, with an increasingly central role. But if not, make sure to enjoy him while we have him. Between this series and Men of a Certain Age, he’s proven he can play drama just as well as comedy, and with just as much empathy and likability.
