| Magical Girl Friendship Squad |
Hey! Tonight, Syfy's TZGZ block has some new programming, so the Top Pick is the show that leads off the lineup, Magical Girl Friendship Squad. The short-form animated series is a female-driven comedy "about two young women, Alex and Daisy (Quinta Brunson and Anna Akana), who are destined to save the Universe...as soon as they figure out how to pay their rent." None of the shows look that good, but maybe they'll surprise me. Dallas & Robo did. In the later hours, TZGZ reuses some shows that its previously aired.
Elsewhere, Dr. Jeff is back, Farm Aid goes virtual, Michael B. Jordan goes to court, Tony Stark and Bruce Banner have an experiment go wrong, and Kolchak hunts an alien.
Faster than a speeding bullet! More powerful than a locomotive! Able to leap tall buildings at a single bound, it's what's on television for tonight, Saturday, September 26!
