Best-bets for Sept. 10: two comedy gems

1) “Colin From Accounts” final season, Paramount+. In one eight-episode clump, here’s the entire season. It’s written (beautifully) by the married duo of Patrick Brammall (left) and Harriet Dyer (third from left), who also star. Starting three years after his drunken proposal, this gets some big laughs, then ends with warmth and humor. Once you’re past the Australian accents, it’s a delight. Read more…

1) “Colin From Accounts” final season, Paramount+. In one eight-episode clump, here’s the entire season. It’s written (beautifully) by the married duo of Patrick Brammall (left) and Harriet Dyer (third from left), who also star. Starting three years after his drunken proposal, this gets some big laughs, then ends with warmth and humor. Once you’re past the Australian accents, it’s a delight.

2) “Adults,” 9 and 9:36 p.m., FX and FXX. In their mid-20s, these likable people flounder with real life. In the first episode, they swap rooms; it’s fairly funny — and then hilarious at a sperm bank. In the second, Samir’s girlfriend tries a startling career shift; it gets some laughs, then ends with a surprise.

3) “CBS Fall First Look,” 9 p.m., CBS. The last network to start its season (its shows arrive Oct. 4-10) is the first to air a half-hour promo. Its three new shows have familiar roots: “Cupertino” is from the “Elsbeth” people, “Eternally Yours” from the “Ghosts” people and “NCIS: New York” from … well, the usual people.

4) “Best Medicine,” 9 p.m., Fox. Two weeks before the second season opens, here’s a rerun of this season’s entertaining finale: The town seems delighted by its “sister city” visitors from Norway, but Martin, as usual, has doubts. That’s followed by a good “1% Club” rerun: Somehow, an extra-tough question pops up in the middle, wiping out the multitudes.

5) “Supergirl,” HBO Max. Last year’s “Superman” was a delight, but this film — same producers, same cute dog — is a mess. Sure, Milly Alcock is fine as a tangle-haired, reluctant hero, but the film is oddly dark in its visuals and in a story that mostly sets up lots of fights.
