Sunday Shows: North Dakota and Quantico

Tonight you can catch the return of a few favorites, such as the third season of Brooklyn Nine-Nine, though the Brooklyn precinct will be very different now that Captain Holt (Andre Braugher) has been replaced by a new captain played by SNL's Bill Hader. Or you might want to try one of these new shows on ABC:

- Blood & Oil:  It seems Dallas has shifted north to North Dakota.  Don Johnson and Chace Crawford star in this new drama about the drama associated with one family in the middle of the energy boom.  Here is the blurb from ABC (and the trailer):

Billy and Cody Lefever dream of a new life and move to "The Bakken" in North Dakota, booming after the biggest oil discovery in American history. They’re soon pitted against a ruthless tycoon who forces them to put everything on the line, including their marriage.

Chase plays the gullible Billy and Don Johnson gets to play the tycoon, or should we say overplay the tycoon?  I did not really watch the first Dallas, or the remade Dallas, so I am not sure I have time for North Dakota. 

- Quantico: If the energy industry is not your thing, you always have the FBI and terrorists (yes, over and over again).  This new series starts with a new FBI class and a terrorist attack on NYC.  If it sounds familiar it is because we always have investigators and even super heroes discussing 9/11 and NYC.  But here we go again with the ABC blurb and trailer:

A diverse group of recruits has arrived at the FBI Quantico Base for training. They are the best, the brightest and the most vetted, so it seems impossible that one of them is suspected of masterminding the biggest attack on New York City since 9/11.

That said, the trailer was intriguing as it shows the FBI academy training as the Hunger Games that leads to plot that takes down trainee Alex Parrish, played by Bollywood superstar Priyanka Chopra.  I am intrigued and may add this one to my list.
