PERSON OF INTEREST
CBS, 9:01 p.m. ET
Since doing such impressive early work as a co-star of The L Word and Life (the latter opposite Homeland star Damian Lewis), Sarah Shahi has been stuck starring in TV shows that don’t exactly show off her range and potential. (Yes, Fairly Legal and Chicago Fire, I’m talking to you.) But tonight, she gets a guest role on a show that may serve her well. She plays the female equivalent of the Person of Interest team, working for a secret organization. Root for a promotion to a recurring role.
