‘Line of Fire’ & ‘The Voice’ Season 30 on NBC, ‘Sunny’ Goes Gilligan, a New York Story

The network has high hopes for this starry drama about a family of law enforcers, led by Peter Krause, who trades his 9-1-1 firefighter gear for the suit and tie of a Secret Service agent. He stars as Mike Hollingsworth, who’s about to retire — though, given the rules of TV, he probably won’t — and is handing the reins to his bad-boy son Micah (Tommy O’Brien), also with the Secret Service. Also serving the public: Mike’s estranged wife, Jane (Hope Davis), a U.S. Marshal who ropes their FBI agent daughter, Clare (Kat Cunning), into her latest case. And just starting out at the Department of Justice: their son Russ (Taylor Bloom), who’d just as soon his dad keep an arm’s distance. Theirs isn’t the closest of families, and when they gather for an awkward dinner to meet Clare’s boyfriend, let’s just say it’s not as harmonious as the gatherings on Blue Bloods and Boston Blue.

Giving Line of Fire a sturdy lead-in, the Emmy-winning singing competition returns for a milestone 30th season, with new star power from Queen Latifah and country music’s Riley Green as first-time coaches. They join veteran coaches Adam Levine and Kelly Clarkson in their search for the next great voice, starting with the ever-popular Blind Auditions round. This year, there’s a “First in Button” twist in which the coach who turns their chair around first gets the chance to claim a singer as their own, but they can only use it once.

Conspiracy theories boil over in the kooky comedy as Mac (Rob Mac) and Charlie (Charlie Day) pay homage to 1960s cult classic Gilligan’s Island by speculating why the series fell just short of the magic number of 100 episodes. Their brainstorm: find a living heir of series creator Sherwood Schwartz and pitch a final 100th episode. (The movies don’t count as canon, they insist.) Cue the fantasy dream sequences, with Charlie as Gilligan, Mac as the Captain, and the others as “the rest.”

A docuseries that continues to evolve along with its iconic subject, Ric Burns’ epic history of New York City returns with two new episodes (concluding Tuesday), profiling the ever-changing metropolis in the quarter-century since 9/11. The series premiered in 1999, with a special epilogue produced in 2003 focusing on the World Trade Center in the wake of the 2001 terrorist attacks. The new episodes, titled “Shadows of the Past” and “The Future of Cities,” were filmed over the last decade with narration by Robert Sean Leonard, taking over from the late David Ogden Stiers. Interview subjects include former New York mayors David Dinkins (who died in 2020), Michael Bloomberg, Bill de Blasio, and Eric Adams.
