On Tonight: Last Resort, Person of Interest and Big Bang Theory

Thursday, Oct. 18

Last Resort, 8 p.m., ABC

You know how kids’ shows are on seven days a week? My son can’t stand the fact that Last Resort is only every Thursday. This is how deep our love of this show has grown – we wish we could watch a new ep every day. I keep wondering how they are going to keep a standoff interesting, and so far they have. My only quibble is the bartender girl’s back story. I don’t care. Tonight, “Marcus and Sam learn they have been charged with treason; a threat brews among the group; an old friend of Sam's visits Christine.”

Person of Interest, 9 p.m., CBS

Tonight, “Reese protects the spoiled daughter of a Brazilian diplomat.” You know how much Reese loves kids. Although now that he has a dog, maybe he will do better.

The Big Bang Theory, 8 p.m., CBS

Wolowitz is back!
