Bureau’s Breakroom’s Television Table – Week beginning 2021 November 14

The new blood arrives, as Riverdale, The Flash, and Star Trek: Discovery all return to the table.  In Riverdale, the show shifts to Rivervale, which sounds like a soft reboot.  The Flash starts up it’s eighth season with an Armageddon sized bang.  Discovery joins Prodigy with a complete lack of information other than episode number.  The Doctor continue to explore a planet that seems to somehow be the source of time.  The Good Doctor steps up to make it clear it’s not about a Time Lord with an episode about one heart.  The Legends of Tomorrow show up somewhere new and unknown, and meet a god in the bathroom.  Batwoman does some gardening.  Blacklist has Dembe discovering the downsides of working for the FBI.  Foundation gives us their season finale.

Welcome to “Spooky Season”!  As the Bureau begins out October Reviews, our shows do not take any time off, so you’ll have it squeeze those movies in where you can.  Evil gets into your brain this week.  Chapelwaite is grieving.  Per a good suggestion, Y: The Last Man joins the BBTT, but the title informing me that our favorite multi-genre muscian had passed away distracted me from the summary of political intrigue.  The Good Doctor plans for a wedding as the hospital staff shakes up.  Stargirl takes a regret-filled trip to the past, while Supergirl searches for magical totems as Lena gets witchy.  What If will conitue last week’s episode, but gives us not advanced notice.  Doom Patrol assists Madame Rouge.  The Queen speaks on See.  In Foundation, the Empire argues with himself.  American Horror Story, Titans, Star Trek: Lower Decks, and the Boys speciall all are also on the table, but didn’t give us any descriptions, so they don’t get mentioned.
