Is ‘Scorpion’ season 2, episode 11 new tonight on CBS

Given the complete lack of new programming over the last few days (save for maybe Sunday), beggars really cannot be choosers. We’ve got new episodes of “The Voice,” “Supergirl,” and “Fargo” on the air … but unfortunately no “Scorpion.”

Given where we are in the story right now on CBS, this may be an even bigger bummer for some of you out there. At the end of last week’s episode Megan passed away, and Walter O’Brien realized that no matter how smart and how determined he was, no amount of genius could stop something that was unfortunately inevitable thanks to her disease. She did leave behind for him a message to go out and live his life, and not be afraid to show people that there is something more here than just a brilliant guy.

When the series returns to CBS this week, you are hopefully going to at least see some of the characters, especially Walter and Sylvester, still trying to deal with what happened. The biggest disservice that the writers could give the fans would be to have this suddenly transform into something that does not matter much the rest of the season. It should be at least referenced, even if it is not the focal point of many stories moving forward.

As a whole, there are two episodes still to air before we get to the holiday hiatus. Stay tuned, as we’ll have further information on them in due time (including promos).
