And now for its next adventure, 12 Monkeys has employed someone with plenty of time-traveling experience as the series got Back to the Future star Christopher Lloyd.

The actor will make a guest star during Season 3 of the Syfy hit series as the villainous Pallid Man's father, the network announced Wednesday.

Changes We Can Embrace: This Is US "Kyle" & "The Pool"

The show just gets better and better and these two episodes proves that it's literally the best new show of the fall.

In the episode, "Kyle" we dive into not only Randell's past but his parents as there's a secret on why his father never got to see him. Plus Kate has a hidden talent that Toby tries to make her show and Kevin comes to realizes that separation from his sister isn't a bad idea.

I thought that this was an outstanding episode, one that truly gives the meaning of family drama with one word theme change. Change of the name, with Randell, change of scenery for Kevin, the change of bring a baby or babies home with Rebecca and Jake.

There were shocking moment when Rebecca and William met but it turned out that it wasn't their first time meeting each other. That totally had me by surprise.

There were funny moments, like when Toby wakes up and hears Kate in the bathroom singing and when she opens the door she's surprise and punches him in the face. That shows him not to ease drop on her or anyone again.

Even thought that everyone was amazing in each and every way, there was one that stood out and gave a great performance and that was Mandy Moore. This episode was her best so far.

Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

In the episode "The Pool" this episode was another outstanding piece.

On a hot day, Jack decides to take Rebecca and the kids to the pool on one of the hottest day as their air conditioner wasn't working. This was one of my favorite story lines of the episode. It shows the idea of what going to the pool with the kids in the summer is all about and the reason why I stopped going. But Jack tries to handle things but isn't doing to well, mostly not paying attention to Kevin, who almost drown in the pool.

Kevin auditions in New York City and after gets the role, even though it pissed off the leading award winning actress, because he can sale tickets.

Randell and William storyline had the perfect balance of drama and humor. The one scene was when Randell took William cloth shopping and as he talks to him about the difference between him and William, he goes to telling him to try on a pair of pants.

Kate finally got to see what the real Toby, if he's not trying to make her feel good. After seeing his ex-wife, Kate goes her way to check her out and accidentally goes to the store, where she works, and gets a job as a researcher. That didn't sit well with Toby and he tells her how she hurt him by cheating on him and that his divorce caused him to gain a lot of weight.

This was another amazing episode, but not only did the writing and acting was great, but the music selection was outstanding and fit the tone of the episode so well. I just hope that they would come out with a soundtrack after season one.

Overall, I give "Kyle" a 9.5/10 and "The Pool" a 9/10.

You can catch This Is Us Tuesday nights at 9/8c on NBC.

Fun Day: The Good Place "Chapter 6: What We Owe to Each Other"

Last week's episode of The Good Place was a half hour of funny and it's all from Ted Danson and Kristen Bell's performance.

Eleanor helps Michael try to figure out the cause of the weird events that have been happening. But with all of the crazy theories and interesting stuff in his office, Eleanor decides to advice him on taking a break and have some fun. From there, they went karaoke to playing arcade games and even bowling.

Meanwhile Tahani wants to spend some time with Jianyu by going to a couple's spa, but he really feel uncomfortable about it and asked Chidi to come too, making it awkward and weird for her. Tahani tries by asking questions on art and even his pores on his face, but she wasn't getting anything.

Chidi tells him just pick something she likes that he has common ground with like impression paintings but Jianyu just comes up with a painting of an impressionist of Frank Caliendo, but soon changes it to three ballot dancers with Tahani's face on it. There was a moment at the couple's cafe where Tahani and Chidi share a moment of their favorite thing over talking about Jianyu.

The next day Eleanor comes back to Michael's office and he tells her that he figured out how fun can be. So instead of taking her advice on another fun day like the other day, they search the places that the crazy events happen and looked into those that have been there. Janet gives a list of those that were at the cleaning up the neighborhood, which was a short list, to along those that were flying, which was a longer list.

But when they come up empty, Michael decides to put on his hoodie and lay on the floor. After seeing another flashback from when Eleanor let a friend's dog get fat from a ton of dog food, she confronts Michael and tell him that she'll be there helping to figure it out. Until he figures it out what the problem was and ordered a town meeting, where he confronts the people that he found the problem and that it is....him and he must leave.

Another shocking cliffhanger! This was another slam dunk of an episode. Bell and Danson shines so bright with a great chemistry. Loved the Friends reference that's been made through the episode and the question about the apartment (even though it was rent controlled from Monica's aunt when she gave it to her).

The Chidi, Jianyu and Tahani storyline was good too. It was so funny and awkward for Chidi to explain that he was part of the couple's spa day. And the painting of Caliendo was funny too.

Overall,  I give this episode a 10/10.

You can catch The Good Place Thursday nights at 8:30/7:30c on NBC.
