TVLine's Performer of the Week

The Rookie made the cut for Honorable Mention for TV Line's Performer of the Week:

HONORABLE MENTION | When The Rookie killed off one of its original characters this week, it was Richard T. Jones‘ Sergeant Wade Grey who first, and arguably best, made us feel the weight of that tragic loss. Scoffing at a DEA suit’s suggestion that he was feeling “frustration,” Grey fired back, “My frustration? I lost a kid who was like a son to me. What I’m feeling, it’s biblical.” Later, when Grey caught up to, cornered and trained his weapon on Officer West’s killer, Jones’ steely gaze, coupled with a voice that fought back emotion, had us feeling every ounce of his lawman’s conflict. “I have a devil on my shoulder telling me he’s holy, and it’d be so easy to listen to him, to give in and pull this trigger,” he calmly remarked. “But I won’t.” Because what better way to honor Jackson than to bring his killer to true justice.

Also, if you want to check it out, Scott Foley (formerly on Whiskey Cavalier, now on The Big Leap) made the top of this list.

I have watched a couple of episodes of The Big Leap but I really don’t care for Scott’s character or the path this show is taking. I will probably stop watching.

I've watched several new shows and The Big Leap is absolutely the best.  Great characters with great back stories. Various people sign up for a reality dance show. At the end of the show they will give a performance of Swan Lake. Scott Foley is trying to exploit every personal angle of everyone's life to add to the show's drama, so yeah, he's kind of a dick.  My husband and I were both totally drawn in after not really even wanting to watch it.

Ghosts gets honorable mention. It's a cute show about a young couple who inherit a mansion that's been in the wife's family for generations. There are several ghosts stuck in time in the house from various eras. After the wife has an accident and gets a concussion, she is able to see and converse with them. The ghosts aren't evil and all have their own stories. Seems like fun so far.

We've rejected La Brea, FBI Intl, Ordinary Joe, and will probably give up on NCIS, Hawaii.

I have wayched 2 episodes of Ordinary Joe and I am liking it.
