Yahoo Lifestyle Was Law & Order’s ER Reunion Too Slight? Does Villainous Scott Wolf Have Bite? Will Kate McKinnon Play SNL’s Bishop Budde? More TV Qs!
We’ve got questions, and you’ve (maybe) got answers! With another week of TV gone by, we’re lobbing queries left and right about Law & Order, Silo, The Way Home, Shifting Gears and more!
1 | Much as we enjoyed the Silo finale’s flashback coda, how are they going to explain the PEZ dispenser that congressman Daniel gave journalist Helen winding up in Silo 18 some 300 years later? What, does it become someone’s family heirloom? Also, aren’t there some logic/logistical issues with regards to the Silo 17 vault generating meals for Solo/Jimmy to last 30 years (…and counting)?

2 | The Way Home fans, don’t you wish we’d gotten to spend more time with Rick before his death?
3 | On The Hunting Party, given the massive amount of destruction done to The Pit by the explosion — e.g. cell windows shattered, we saw inmates fall to their death — how could that have been any kind of orchestrated jailbreak?
4 | Prior to Fox’s Doc, did you realize how much you needed to see Scott Wolf play a villain? Also, do you think the show will eventually drop the repeated “SIX MONTHS AGO” callouts and assume we can identify the flashbacks’ muted color palette?
5 | This week’s Kitchen Nightmares makeover couldn’t fix the sign outside that was missing a letter? Or was it left that way for “charm”? ▼
6 | How worried should Will Trent fans be about sexual assault survivor Angie, who now has to live knowing that, in pursuit of justice, she helped set convicted rapist Jonathan Shelly free? And should we take Will at his word, having told Nico that he sees no path to reconciliation with Angie?
7 | Show of hands, The Rookie fans: When you read in Tuesday’s What to Watch that “a friendly face resurfaces at the station,” did anyone think it’d be long-lost Rachel? Also, if Miles and Seth are going to get near-fired for breaking protocol, shouldn’t Nolan at least get a firm hand slap for his middle-of-the-night excursion sans backup?
8 | When you saw Happy Endings vet Eliza Coupe show up on this week’s High Potential, did you also wonder whether she originally auditioned to play Morgan? ▼
9 | Maui, Sicily, Thailand (for Season 3 premiering Feb. 16)…. What do you think the destination will be for The White Lotus Season 4?
10 | As much as we all laughed and laughed and laughed at the name of CBS’ FBI: CIA spinoff, once you read the premise (a joint FBI/CIA task force!), didn’t the title actually make some sense?
11 | For a number of reasons — though first and foremost the elimination of Best Original Song performances — does anyone suspect that Oscars viewership will dip this year, for the first time since 2020?
12 | Does anyone understand why Chicago Med’s Maggie broke up with her seemingly perfect boyfriend Loren?
13 | We know it’s not uncommon for sitcoms to air episodes out of production order, but wasn’t it a bit strange of ABC to air a Shifting Gears episode about a parent-teacher conference as Episode 2, then an episode about Carter and Georgia’s first day of school as Episode 3? Also, TVLine reader “Mr Beepo” wonders, “When is Stifler’s mother” — that would be Jennifer Coolidge, who played mom to Seann William Scott in American Pie — “going to be on? She was also in Broke Girls (co-starring Kat Dennings), so there are at least two connections.”
14 | Were you disappointed that Thursday’s Law & Order — directed by Eriq La Salle and featuring fellow ER vets Mekhi Phifer and Michael Beach — didn’t at least feature more scenes between Phifer and former co-star Maura Tierney? ▲
15 | Prior to watching The Night Agent Season 2, had you ever heard of “machine identification codes” — microdots made by every color printer to identify the source? (They’re real!) And in Episode 8 (SPOILER ALERT!), how fragile of vials were they using in the mobile lab, that one shattered after a gentle lob onto the meat freezer floor?
16 | The Sex Lives of College Girls viewers, were you pleasantly surprised to see Eli return in the finale and apologize to Kimberly? Are you rooting for him and Kimberly to get back together? Or are you feeling activist Noah?
17 | Did this week’s Animal Control have a surprisingly intense amount of sexual tension, with the whole Frank-Fiona-Victoria thing?
18 | Who else watching Going Dutch this week Googled to see if Korfball was a real sport? (It very much is!)
19 | Do you think Fox dares to let Gordon Ramsay, Ken Jeong and Joel McHale travel together…?
20 | On this Friday’s Severance, did the look of Mark Scout’s phone keyboard throw you a bit, or does your non-iPhone also default to have numbers at top? ▼
21 | What are the odds that Kate McKinnon pops up on Saturday Night Live to play President Trump’s new best friend, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde?
