Tonight's Top Pick is the season premiere of Accused, kicking off with an episode headlined by Felicity Huffman and William H. Macy. It looks like there's going to be lots of familar faces this season, including Taylor Schilling, Nick Cannon, Patrick J. Adams, Justin Chambers, Christine Ebersole, Ken Jeong, Danny Pino, Mercedes Ruehl, and Debra Winger.
While I try to imagine all of these people competing on the Battle of the Network Stars, let's see what else TV has to offer us for Tuesday, Oct. 8. All times are EST.
