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 Abbott Elementary, Landman, Monday Night Raw, the Golden Globes and more!
1 | On Silo, at what point does Juliette’s perfectly stylish shag haircut become…. well, just shaggy? And if you read the first Wool novel, are you actually preferring Lukas’ storyline on the TV series?

Golden Globes Producers Talk Nikki Glaser's Likely Encore and the Fight They Feared Might Break Out
2 | Did it take you a second to realize that as Golden Globe nominees were announced, the teardrop icons were showing their location in the ballroom? ▼ Was anyone else hoping that Nikki Glaser went all-in with the “Pope-ular“ bit, Billy Crystal-style?
3 | Has E! red carpet coverage finally found a perfect host in Access Hollywood correspondent Zuri Hall?
4 | The Suits LA promo, which is almost all silhouettes and out-of-focus or cropped faces, and with the familiar theme song… It wants people to think the new show has the original cast, doesn’t it? ▼
5 | Landman fans: For someone who isn’t an actor, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones did a pretty good job during his monologue to Monty, right?
6 | Were you surprised to see that The View — which got an extreme makeover in September — has already revamped its opening credits and changed its on-set color palette? ▼
7 | How — how — do you cast Mandy Patinkin as Zachary Quinto’s Brilliant Minds dad and LOSE THE MATCHY BEARD?
8 | As great as it was to see Danielle Fishel at WWE Raw’s star-studded Netflix debut, what, no respect/chyron for Will Friedle?! ▼
9 | On Skeleton Crew, that was an obscene amount of dataries just in that one vault out of 1,139, right? Couldn’t the Supervisor et al just let Jod load up a few pallets and call it a day?
10 | When was the last time The Bold and the Beautiful introduced a character with as much of a flourish as it did the spectacular Daphne Rose? And can you imagine the extreme care that had to be taken in the hair and makeup room to prepare for that close-up sniffing segment? ▼
11 | Now that we know that Deal or No Deal Island‘s new banker is a woman, any early guesses as to who she might be? (Can we rule out Sofia Vergara?)
12 | Anyone else not know blue roses were a thing before this week’s High Potential?
13 | How eerie was it that The Irrational featured a forest fire ▼ the same day that the wildfires broke out in the Los Angeles area? Relatedly, do you suspect CBS would have postponed Fire Country‘s midseason premiere if it had been scheduled for this week, seeing as it’s Part 2 of a catastrophic California wildfire event? Will they at least slap on a content advisory when Jan. 31 rolls around?
14 | Since The Rookie‘s showrunner has previewed the Wesley/Angela/Detective Graham story as being “fun,” could it be that Wesley shut off the shrink session tape too soon? Was Graham about to say something G-rated, or maybe was even talking about a different “Detective Lopez”?
15 | Were you as surprised/delighted as the little girl on Chicago Med, or did you suspect that Dr. Abrams had a quiet plan to perform the surgery without cutting her hair? ▼
16 | Shouldn’t Chicago Fire’s Cruz have rolled the dice from the start, looped in his bosses and trusted that he wouldn’t get busted for something he allegedly did 12 years ago? Something he could have painted as the conspiracy theory blathering of a dead guy’s vengeful brother?
17 | In retrospect, the car crash victim wouldn’t have yet known, but… shouldn’t Chicago P.D.‘s Cook have led off by asking him where he was driving the ransom money to? Speaking of the ransom, why leave the wife’s severed finger with a big-ass diamond ring on it? Keep it and apply it to the balance, kidnapper guy!
18 | Were any Wednesday night NBC viewers nearly confused by the heavy promos for Max’s The Pitt… and NBC’s The Hunting Party, whose spot opens with talk of “The Pit” (aka the series’ secret prison)?
19 | The Abbott Elementary/It’s Always Sunny crossover left us wondering: Did a scheduling conflict with Glenn Howerton lead to Dennis ducking away from the cameras and basically missing the entire episode?
20 | The Squid Game-themed Domino’s Pizza commercial concept is alllll kinds of misguided, right?
21 | Was The Challenge‘s karma vote a fair twist to throw upon the eight finalists? And did you feel bad for Michele, who missed out on tying for first by one measly point?
22 | We’d never say no to having Joe Morton on our screens, but is it a bit wild/a disconnect to see fierce orator Papa Eli Pope on a sitcom like Fox’s Going Dutch?
23 | With three new power players entering The Traitors castle in Episode 2, which should everyone fear most: Boston Rob, Wes or Derrick? Also, why was Tom Sandoval sweating so much during breakfast?
24 | Regarding The Pitt premiere: Did anyone else Shazam the song Robby listens to on his way to work — “Baby” by Robert Bradley’s Blackwater Surprise — only to discover that the band performing it was active from 1994 to 2009, the exact stretch of time that ER aired on NBC? (Surely, that’s not a coincidence… right?) On a scale 1 to 10, just how grossed out were you by the de-gloved foot reveal? And lastly, how nervous are you about Theresa’s 18-year-old son David, who ran off when Robby tried to confront him about a list of female classmates he wants to “eliminate”?
