TV weekly must watch

We’ve rounded up three great shows you should keep an eye out for this week.

Start with a daring comedy that tests the modern ideal that women really can have it all. Then watch a comedy game show where contestants must fill in the missing words of statements and phrases. Or follow a sumptuous historical drama about a Russian Empress that became the country’s longest-ruling female leader.

Back for season six, Workin’ Moms re-examines friendships, demanding careers, motherhood and marriage. Kate grapples with the unexpected addition to the Foster family, as a snag threatens to unravel everything she’s built at work. Anne finds out that you can move the girl back to the city, but her small town problems can’t be left behind. Jenny comes to realize that interoffice relationships might be a little messier than expected. Powerhouse Sloane is back again, and killing it in the boardroom, but maybe there’s more room in her schedule for a personal life than she thought. Val’s considering a real change for the first time in a long time. When it comes to working, family and having it all … striking a balance is a precarious business. Watch season 6 from May 10 on Netflix.
