On whatever side of the is-there-too-much-tv argument, you can’t argue that there certainly is a lot of television right now and a lot of it worth watching. 

As a result, shows might fall through the cracks and fly under the radar, making their way to a second season and still be a pleasant surprise to plenty of folks.

Such is the case for Bravo’s Odd Mom Out from Jill Kargman, which premieres its second season tonight at 10PM.

See how charming this comedy following a mom’s quest to not become a stereotypical Upper East Side mom can be in this trailer.

The highly anticipated return of something like Silicon Valley on HBO wouldn’t be complete without a high profile premiere event. 

Because it’s Silicon Valley, they also can’t just throw any premiere event, which is why they pulled out a red carpet, a step and repeat, and rotating searchlights as well as have the cast and the creators gathered altogether to show a single scene from season 3 from the show.

Watch this silly event really happen here.

After a handful of pilots all at NBC, Jerrod Carmichael’s sitcom, The Carmichael Show, is premiering tonight. 

The Carmichael Show has its series premiere tonight at 9PM on NBC. As Jerrod’s only other big TV thing was his HBO special, we’re all very anxious to see what he’s got up his sleeve with this show, especially since he gave fake copies of the show’s pilot on VHS on the street.

Tune in at 10:30PM tonight on Comedy Central.

That’s when the series premiere of Another Period airs and the world officially gets to meet The Bellacourts, the most self-involved, turn-of-the-century, backwards, yet, still aristocratic family there ever was.

Along with Drunk History, Comedy Central seems to have historical comedy figured out.

The televised special for this year’s Peabody Awards premieres at 9PM on Pivot and you can see what hijinks host Fred Armisen got himself into as well as that kiss between Tina Fey and Amy Schumer and more.

Feeling tempted? Watch Will Ferrell star in A #DeadlyAdoption tonight at 8/7c. pic.twitter.com/05czAddici

At one time, we all thought that A Deadly Adoption might have been nixed even though it reportedly was already in the can. 

Luckily, that was all a ruse and the premiere of A Deadly Adoption with Kristen Wiig and Will Ferrell playing up all the Lifetime TV movie tropes is happening tonight on Lifetime at 8PM.

With both this and Grumpy Cat’s Worst Christmas Ever on their resume, we’re curious to see how else Lifetime will expand and redefine their brand in the coming months.

From 10PM to 11PM, stay in and watch or set your DVR.

The series premiere of The Comedians starring Billy Crystal and Josh Gad airs tonight at 10PM and the fifth season of Louie premieres right after at 10:30PM. 

So, The Comedians will be leading in Louie, which is only slightly intriguing since, but most of you, we’re guessing will be probably watching both later. 

And “The Late Late Show With James Corden” Begins With a Cool New Set, Clever Segments, and Sincerity

March 24, 2015

As far as we can tell, James Corden is off to a good start at The Late Late Show. 

The premiere episode of The Late Late Show with James Corden aired last night and gave America a good showing of what Corden, bandleader Reggie Watts, and this new era of late night is all about as far they’re concerned.

These two segments of how Corden “got” the Late Late Show host gig and how he runs through this thorough retrospective of Tom Hanks’ career kick the show off to a fun, yet clever premiere.

</p>

Right off the bat, you’ll note the set doesn’t trying to relive some late night talk show sets of yesteryear, but instead is quite dark in its color palate and delightfully all over the place. See the checkered floor that Reggie and his band Karen play on. 

Oh yeah, Reggie’s wonderful band is named, for now, Karen according to this interview with The A.V. Club and Reggie will seemingly get to bring some of the Comedy Bang! Bang! flavor to network television as shown by the one question he asked Hanks. 

They definitely employ other things that slightly eschew traditional late night tropes like Corden’s monologue leaning more towards his predecessor Craig Ferguson’s style of being in the moment and coming from the heart. James also doesn’t sit behind the desk for the interview, interviewed both Tom Hanks and Mila Kunis at the same time sort of like The Graham Norton Show, and even had slick black cards instead of the traditional light blue that talk show hosts used to stay on point throughout the show.

Of course, this is just the premiere episode and all of this could end up changing, but it’s clear that, whatever happens, James will be completely genuine about it as you can see with his closing ballad.

You can watch the whole premiere here and see it all in its entirety for yourself.

The series that has brought together Phil Lord, Chris Miller, a seemingly deserted planet Earth, and Will Forte as the Last Man on Earth “Phil Miller” (see what they did there?) is finally premiering tonight. 

Make sure to see what Forte (and probably most of us if we were being completely honest) would do if we had the whole world all to ourselves (i.e. Tequila filled kid pools) by tuning at 9PM tonight for the hour premiere on Fox.

At 11:30PM, The Jack and Triumph Show premieres and a special from John C. Reilly’s Dr. Steve Brule Bag Boy follows an hour later at 12:30AM.

Showtime is really, quite literally picking up its comedy line-up. They already re-upped Inside Comedy with David Steinberg for a fourth season.

Now, they also have Tig Notaro’s traveling live comedy show docu-series and the dramedy that was set to star Philip Seymour Hoffman on deck for this year.

In April, Knock Knock, It’s Tig Notaro will premiere on the 17th (via TV Guide) and Happyish, which just got a series pick-up now starring Steve Coogan will premiere on the 26th (via Deadline).

So, it would appear that we should all be on the look out for Showtime in 2015.

Grumpy Cat’s Worst Christmas Ever with The Voice of Aubrey Plaza Is What Might Break the Internet

Tonight at 8PM on Lifetime, the melding of the Internet’s love of Grumpy Cat and Aubrey Plaza will be complete as that is when Grumpy Cat’s Worst Christmas Ever will make its world wide premiere.

For weeks, Aubrey has been saying how insanely meta this movie is and how both the director and Lifetime basically let her say whatever she wanted since they’re not syncing it with Grumpy Cat’s lips at all. 

We can all say how true that statement really is, in addition to see whether this will outdo Kim Kardashian’s butt in attempting to break the Internet, tonight at 8PM.

Also, Plaza encourages you all to live tweet the experience right along with her.
