Check out our weekly guide to make sure you're catching the big premieres, crucial episodes and the stuff you won't admit you watch when no one's looking.

— Laurie Metcalf stars as the matriarch of this sports-obsessed Boston family on The McCarthys. Among the brothers are Gerard (played by former New Kids On the Block member Joey McIntyre) and Ronny (Tyler Ritter). The premiere episode, airing Thursday at 9:30 p.m. Eastern on CBS, focuses on Ronny's decision to move away from the close-knit family to Providence. The broad comedy may be guilty of too many easy jokes about how Ronny's family fail to grasp gay culture just as often as he bungles sports trivia, but its heart is in the right place.
