Dr. Quinn Reunion on Harry Wild, CWs All American Previews Its Last Season, Sullivans Crossing & Youre Killing Me Finales

“I’m picturing a fat little man who smells of formaldehyde,” Harriet “Harry” Wild (Jane Seymour) quips when the new pathologist in town comes knocking. Boy, is she in for a surprise. In a long-anticipated reunion of Seymour and her Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman co-star Joe Lando, retired lit prof Harry opens her fifth season of amateur sleuthing by welcoming the newly-installed State Pathologist Pierce Kennedy (nice name!), played by the still handsome though now much shorter-haired Lando. He’s discovered a pattern in several supposedly accidental deaths that are linked by mysterious tattoos of music notes. Turns out Pierce can play Debussy on the piano and quote poetry, making him quite the find for the relationship-averse Harry. Let’s see how that plays out as the season progresses.

The long-running sports drama, one of the last remnants of the network’s pre-Nexstar lineup of original programming, will begin airing its eighth and final season on July 13. As a curtain raiser to mark this bittersweet occasion, All American: The Final Season Special will feature cast members and crew celebrating the show’s most memorable moments on and off the high-school football field, with a look ahead at what’s to come in the final chapters.

The Season 4 finale of the Canadian soap is titled “Healing Hearts,” though Maggie’s (Morgan Kohan) own heart might be breaking as she makes some hard choices regarding her position in a season-long triangle involving her ex, Liam (Marcus Rosner), and her longtime beau, Cal (Chad Michael Murray). While the Nova Scotia community celebrates the land ceremony, Crossing shippers will want to know which way the romantic winds are blowing for their heroine.

The first season of the light mystery ends with a perilous road trip for crime novelist Allie (Brooke Shields) and her young writing partner and fellow amateur sleuth Andi (Amalia Williamson), who’s got a new lead on the whereabouts of her long-missing mom. Turns out they’re not the only ones searching for this mystery lady, and detective Jack (Tom Cavanagh) realizes the ditzy duo might be in danger after finding a corpse connected to one of their past cases.

All’s not quiet on the Eastern Front in this installment of the sprawling historical docuseries. The episode recounts the German Army’s ill-advised expansion into Russia, where their fight to seize Soviet oil fields leads to the brutal battle of Stalingrad launched in the summer of 1942. The Russians’ ultimate victory by February 1943 is widely seen as a major turning point in the European war, bolstering the Allied forces’ determination to stop the Nazi regime.
