What TV To Watch

Homecoming

Julia Roberts stars in season one of this smart, stylish drama about a center that assists returning servicemembers in the transition to civilian life.  Janelle Monae takes the lead in season two, as a woman who wakes up in a rowboat with no memory of who she is. The show switches back and forth between the recent past and the near future as in the first season we become aware that something happened, but we’re not sure what and in the second season we try to piece together who the lead character is and how she ended up in the boat.  The episodes are only half-an-hour and they move quickly as we learn that not everything is as it appears to be.
