MISSING OUT I am so angry with NBC. They canceled Manifest and Debris, both very good shows. While I am a great fan of all the Law & Order series, the network has to have a variety of shows, and sci-fi is among them. —Marsha QUIZ SHOWSTOPPERS Our household of six thought Buzzy Cohen earned an A-plus as host of Jeopardy! and hope he takes it on permanently. All others who filled in temporarily, save for the boss [exec producer Mike Richards], would cause longtime fans to never watch again. —Patsy The celebrity guest hosts have done well, but I’d like to see a not-so-famous person as the new face of Jeopardy! So… Buzzy Cohen? He excelled at hosting the Tournament of Champions! —Nancy Jeers to your “Jeers to Ken…

@TVGMMattRoush LIMITED SERIES PREMIERE Sunday, July 11, 9/8c, HBO HEY, DID SOMEONE drizzle vinegar over my shaved ice? A visit to Hawaii’s plush White Lotus resort (filmed at Maui’s Four Seasons) is guaranteed to leave a sour aftertaste, as long as director-writer Mike White (Enlightened) is playing jaundiced tour guide to a motley assortment of overprivileged guests. “They get everything they want, but they don’t even know what they want,” explains tightly wound hotel manager Armond (Murray Bartlett), masking a passive-aggressive hostility behind his wide mustachioed grin. A new flock of demanding and self-absorbed customers is going to be the death of someone, as we’re tipped off in the opening moments of The White Lotus, a fitfully diverting and gorgeously filmed six-part limited series. The someone’s-gonna-die hook is reminiscent of…

Available now, Prime Video LAPD’S ICONIC DETECTIVE Harry Bosch (Titus Welliver in his career-defining role) has a mantra: “Everybody counts or nobody counts.” In the seventh and final season of the exemplary police drama Bosch (soon to be spun off in a new direction), this steely pro is willing to go to war with his own department to get justice for a 10-year-old, dubbed “the little tamale girl,” who was collateral damage in a firebombing. The Feds are protecting his prime suspect, and Harry puts his badge on the line to cut through the red tape. Office politics also embroil his boss, lesbian lieutenant Grace Billets (Amy Aquino), victim of a sexual harassment campaign. Cop shows haven’t felt this real since the glory days of Steven Bochco (NYPD Blue).…

@TVGMMattRoush I’m writing just after I found out about NBC’s cancellation of Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist. On one hand, I’m heartbroken. How am I going to live without this wonderful show in my life—and especially without Mo (Alex Newell), one of my favorite TV characters of all time? On the other hand, the show wrapped up several story arcs so well in the season finale that maybe it’s better that it turns the lights off now, at its peak, than to go on for one or more seasons and fizzle. What are your thoughts? —FTC MATT ROUSH: Sure, there’s something to be said for going out on a high, which Zoey most certainly did. (I’m still thinking about that final twist.) But I prefer it when the creators and the network…

MONDAY, JULY 12 ORIGINAL DRAMA And you thought the small-town residents on Mare of Easttown had demons? On the third and final season of the Australian crime drama, the past comes back to haunt private investigator–lawyer Jack Irish (Easttown’s Guy Pearce, right, with Marta Dusseldorp) and several others too. The assassination-style murder of a police officer sets off a chain of events that leads Jack to discover that the seemingly random murder of his wife Isabel two decades prior wasn’t so random. Naturally, trouble magnet Jack sets out to learn the truth. “Investigating the circumstances that led to Isabel’s murder is akin to diving back down a deep, dark hole that he thought he had climbed out of,” says series cocreator Matt Cameron. But Jack has more than himself to…

@damianholbrook LOVE IT! Cheers to Zooey Deschanel for getting into the game—The Celebrity Dating Game. Just as charming as she was for seven seasons on Fox’s New Girl, Deschanel (left) is bringing her inimitable appeal to ABC’s update of the classic, and we’re more smitten with the host than the single stars are with their potential paramours. Cheers to Annie Murphy for finding a role we can swear by. In AMC’s inventive TVMAtitled dark comedy Kevin Can F**k Himself, the Schitt’s Creek Emmy winner trades her spoiled Alexis Rose for a no-glam turn as an unfulfilled wife slowly breaking out of (or down over?) her sitcom-ish life with a loutish hubby (Eric Petersen, right, with Murphy).
