TV News For Today, As of 5-16-18 (NCIS, JESSICA JONES and More)

It's not the most recent news, but it's news...  with ABC ordering spin-offs, a new vampire series coming to Netflix, Jessica Jones and NCIS renewal news (was that a spoiler?) and a few dates to remember, if you care. I'm really pressed for time these days, hence, the new, slightly more terse format... still hitting the points, but making it more to the point. In, out... posted!
