I know people are upset that The CW is importing shows from other countries. But I love the Canadian imports.
Tonight at 8p, we get the second season premiere of Family Law, and then at 9p, get ready for the series premiere of Moonshine.
Family Law starts off shortly after the season finale, and Abby (Jewel Staite) is still trying to remain sober. Something that got harder to do after she saw her estranged husband with another woman. Is her marriage over?
Her sister Lucy’s (Genelle Williams) relationship is over. So she moves in with Abby and her mom, Joanne (Lauren Holly), because she has nowhere else to go. How will Joanne react to having her ex-husband’s (Victor Garber) mistress’ daughter staying with her?
It is not all bad for the half-siblings. Daniel (Zach Smadu) is excited that he is finally a partner in his dad’s firm. Too bad he is the only one.
However, they don’t have a lot of time to focus on their personal lives because there is work that needs to be done. A woman comes into the firm, convinced that her late husband is still alive. What happens when they find that he is alive and living a new life with another woman? He claims he doesn’t remember his past life. But is he lying? That is what the siblings are going to have to find out.
They might’ve grown up in different households and didn’t know each other. But together, they are a great team.
And because of that, Family Law is an enjoyable show. I am going to say it, and I am not being unpatriotic, but Canada does better legal and medical dramas than the US. There I said it!
Then at 9p, get ready to meet the Finley-Cullen clan on Moonshine.
Lidia grew up in the quiet Nova Scotian town of Moonshine. However, she moved away for college and never came back.
However, she is going home because her aunt died. So she is bringing her husband (real-life hubby Jonathan Silverman) and their kids, Finn (Calem MacDonald) and Elanor (Celia Owen), with her. There are a lot of reasons why she left, and her dysfunctional family is a big reason.
Her parents, Ken (Peter MacNeill) and Bea (Corrine Koslo) run a bed and breakfast. They are getting older, and Bea is not in the best of health. Ken is ready to slow down, but Bea isn’t.
Will things change during the will reading when everyone finds out Lidia was left 43% of the shares?
She is thinking of giving her troubled siblings her shares. But then something happens, and she decides to stay back in Moonshine.
What she doesn’t know could hurt her? Her siblings are in more trouble than she could ever imagine. They don’t think she should have any part of the business and will destroy her to get what they want. And then there are all these mysteries going on that she doesn’t know about.
More importantly, we don’t know about. So that is going to keep us tuning in to find out what they are and how it will affect this family.
