Is ‘Bull’ episode 8 new tonight on CBS? More on the stories ahead

The airing pattern so far for “Bull” on CBS almost feels akin to flipping a switch on and off. We get a chance to see a good many episodes at one time, and then we’re off for a little while and we’re forced to wait and see precisely what’s coming up next.

Last week, the switch was on following some previous hiatuses thanks to both the World Series and the Presidential Election. This week, unfortunately the show is back off. Like the other series included during the primetime schedule tonight like “NCIS,” there’s no new episode to report on, and it doesn’t appear to be for any clear reason other than a desire to hold onto some new installments for a little while longer.

As for when the show will be back, think along the lines of next week on December 6! We can go ahead and hand down a couple of teases for what is going to be coming up.

“Too Perfect” (December 6) – This is the much-anticipated installment featuring the debut of one Yara Martinez from “Jane the Virgin” fame, who will be playing the part of Jason Bull’s ex-wife on the series. She’s also Benny’s sister, and the two parties don’t have a great relationship. That is going to make matters all the more difficult when they do have to work on a case together.

“Light My Fire” (December 13) – As we near the end of the year, this episode will be a chance to reflect on what Bull’s life may have been like in the event things were different; a visit back to his childhood home is going to be a great way to reflect a little bit further on that.
