Is anyone else feeling a little overwhelmed by Thursday TV? <\/p>\n

Not only did a whole bunch of our returning favorites come back tonight\u2014Grey’s Anatomy<\/em>, SVU<\/em>, The Good Place<\/em>, Superstore<\/em>, HTGAWM<\/em>, Mom<\/em>, etc etc\u2014but we also now have five new shows to add to our long list of reasons we no longer have time to sleep. <\/p>\n

CBS debuted three new offerings tonight, including two comedies and a spooky new drama, while NBC added two comedies to its Thursday night line-up. We can’t say we’re all that disappointed with any of the new shows, though they’ve all got something very, very different to give us. <\/p>\n

We want to know your thoughts, though, so have a little refresher on everything you may or may not have seen tonight and then head to the polls below!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

CBS premiered The Unicorn<\/em> at 8 p.m., starring Walton Goggins<\/strong> as a widower named Wade attempting to move on a year after his wife’s death. Apparently widowers are like unicorns in the dating world, especially when they’re as charming as this one is. The show also stars Rob Corddry<\/strong>, Michaela Watkins<\/strong>, Omar Benson Miller<\/strong>, and Maya Lynne Robinson<\/strong>, with Ruby Jay<\/strong> and Makenzie Moss<\/strong> as Wade’s daughters. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Also at 8 p.m., NBC debuted Perfect Harmony<\/em>, a slightly musical comedy starring Bradley Whitford as a former Princeton music professor who’s dealing with a bout of depression who stumbles upon a choir in need of assistance. If you like singing and you also like Bradley Whitford being a helpful curmudgeon, this might be the show for you. <\/p>\n

It also stars Anna Camp<\/strong>, Will Greenberg<\/strong>, Tymberlee Hill<\/strong>, Geno Segers<\/strong>, Rizwan Manji<\/strong>, and Spencer Allport<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Carol’s Second Act<\/em>, 9:30 p.m. on CBS, is Patricia Heaton’s return to TV after the end of The Middle, and her return to multi-cam comedies on CBS after Everybody Loves Raymond. It’s also her turn to be the star of the show. She’s playing a retired teacher who’s now a medical intern alongside a class of much younger fellow interns without the built in bedside manner. <\/p>\n

Ashley Tisdale<\/a><\/strong> plays Carol’s daughter, and Carol’s fellow interns are played by Jean-Luc Bilodeau<\/strong> and Sabrina Jalees<\/strong>. Ito Aghayere<\/strong> plays chief resident Dr. Jacobs, and Kyle MacLachlan<\/strong> plays Dr. Stephen Frost, the senior attending physician. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

NBC also premiered Sunnyside at 9:30 p.m., its new comedy about a ragtag group of immigrants who need help studying to become citizens. They hire Garrett Modi (Kal Penn, who also co-created the show), a former and disgraced NYC councilman, to help them achieve their citizenship dreams. <\/p>\n

Diana-Maria Riva<\/strong>, Joel Kim Booster<\/strong>, Poppy Liu<\/strong>, Kiran Deol<\/strong>, Moses Storm<\/strong>, and Samba Schutte<\/strong> all star alongside Penn. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Evil<\/em>, CBS’ 10 p.m. drama, comes from Good Wife<\/em> creators Robert and Michelle King and is definitely not a show to watch alone in the dark. It stars Katja Herbers<\/strong> as a skeptical psychologist who finds herself working with a priest, played by Mike Colter, to investigate supernatural incidents. The premise doesn’t sound all that new, but the spooks feel pretty new. <\/p>\n

Michael Emerson<\/a><\/strong>, Aasif Mandvi<\/strong>, Brooklyn Shuck<\/strong>, Skylar Gray<\/strong>, Maddy Crocco<\/strong>, Dalya Knapp<\/strong>, Christine Lahti<\/strong>, and Kurt Fuller<\/strong> also star.  <\/p>\n
