Starring: Tori Anderson and Joshua Sasse
When it starts: Tuesday, Oct. 4, at 9 p.m. on The CW
If you've been bemoaning the lack of romantic comedies on the big screen, it's time to turn your attention the The CW. The network has already been sneaking up on the genre with Jane the Virgin and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, but No Tomorrow is a straight-up rom-com. The pilot alone is better than a lot of romantic comedy films in recent memory, due in no small part to its leads: Sasse (Galavant) as Xavier and Anderson (lots of Canadian TV) as Evie. The conceit is that Xavier is convinced the apocalypse is coming, and he enlists his timid neighbor to make the most of their allegedly short lives. It's weird, but it's entertaining and dare I say, inspiring.
