Uh-oh. There’s big, big trouble coming up for poor Brandi Shannon (Nichole Hiltz) during “Who’s Bugging Mary?,” tonight’s (June 21) fresh episode of In Plain Sight.
Remember that sullen, extremely vindictive FBI Agent Robert O’Connor, who gleefully tried his darnedest to bring down Mary at the end of last season, nearly destroying her house and sanity in the process? Well, he’s still at it, and this time he has the U.S. Marshal’s younger sister in his sights.

One thing I’ve always said about TNT’s Saving Grace is that the show is very much an acquired taste. That’s the trait that kept me from liking the cop drama for more than a season, and once I forced myself to give it a second chance and sit through an entire episode, that’s the trait that also made it grow on me. Fortunately, Holly Hunter’s Grace Hanadarko and her familiar Oklahoma City Police Department colleagues are still chugging along on the fine line between irritating and gripping during tonight’s (June 16) Season Three premiere “We’re Already Here.”

And to go with the preview photos posted earlier, here’s a quick promo look at what’s coming up during tonight’s (June 14) “About Face” episode of Army Wives.
It looks like there’s a lot of drama in store for my favorite tribe member, Denise Sherwood (Catherine Bell), who’s estranged husband Frank apparently runs into big trouble during a military mission. Hopefully, Denise will get a break soon from all of the grief she’s suffered recently, not even two episodes into the new season. She definitely deserves better.
