I haven’t seen any of these. I think I’m into other shows right now, but Bull sounds interesting. I think it would be fun to look at Phil McGraw’s earlier days.
I am addicted to Castle, love shows that make you think!!
I have never seen the shows you mentioned but I’ve heard a friend mention American Crime. I am not into those kinds but I guess they’re worth a try to watch! Gonna get busy soon. 😀
I haven’t seen any of these shows. I do like a few of the crime stuff like NCIS. I will have to check these shows out.
