2 - TVCC – WEEK OF OCTOBER 1- OCTOBER 7, 2015 gametime critics’corner crossword fun The Blacklist Thursday at 9 p.m. on KGW, KOBI Liz (Megan Boone) is a fugitive along with Red (James Spader) as the drama’s third season opens with “The Troll Farmer.” Now a murder suspect, she has joined him on the FBI’s Most Wanted list ... but since they know her, some of her pursuers are sympathetic to her. Red seeks the help of some- one on the Blacklist to aid in an escape plan, and Dembe (Hisham Tawfig) ends up in a perilous spot himself. Harry Lennix and Amir Arison also star. Dr. Ken Friday at 8:31 p.m. on KATU, KEZI After furnishing reliable support in projects including “Community” and “The Hangover,” Ken Jeong — who does have a medical background — is center stage in the debut of this sitcom, playing a character who seems like a hu- morous version of Hugh Laurie’s Dr. Gregory House to a degree. His bedside manner is virtually nonexistent, but his wife (Suzy Nakamura) and two children keep him grounded. “Martin” alum Tisha Campbell-Martin co- stars in the “Pilot.” Code Black Thursday at 10 p.m. on KVAL Saving a patient is only the first step for Christa (Bonnie Somer- ville) in the new episode “We Plug Holes.” She then wants to ensure the woman still can bear children, and she seeks Neal’s (Raza Jaffrey) surgical help to that end. Mario’s (Benjamin Hol- lingsworth) forecast of a hockey player’s future isn’t received well ... to the degree that fisticuffs are thrown. Marcia Gay Harden and William Allen Young also star. Kevin Dunn and K Callan guest star. (541) 991-2920 The identity of the featured celebrity is found within the answers in the puzzle.
