Just like the movie threads but this time - it's with TV shows! And this time I'll post the overall description of a TV show (no individual episodes) and then you guess but try not to use Google or IMDB.
1) The host of a cable TV show about tools juggles life as a popular TV show host while raising his 3 sons in suburban Michigan.
2) Upon learning that he potentially has terminal cancer, a high school chemistry teacher uses his knowledge to cook up and sell a perfect version of a dangerous narcotic.
3) A forensic analyst for the Miami police department juggles his day job investigating horrifying murders and various other crimes, while spending his nights committing them and covering his tracks.
4) An every man in suburban Ohio balances his otherwise miserable job as the HR director for a department store by playing pranks on his boss' over the top secretary.
5) An attorney in New Mexico gains notoriety by employing shady business practices in his effort to climb his way to the top and gets involved in some shady after hours activities.
6) A suburban housewife in Los Angeles uses her husband's status as a popular nightclub entertainer as an entryway into helping her achieve status in her career as an actress.
7) The co-writer of a wildly popular TV show lives out his post career days in Los Angeles being surrounded by his close friends while alienating nearly everyone else he comes in contact with.
8) A show runner for a failing late night sketch comedy show gets some new life breathed into the show when her new boss hires a popular comedian with a reputation for being reckless and unhinged.
9) After one of their own disappears in a horrifying circumstance, a group of closely knit, attractive teenage girls go out of their way to cover up the crime and wind up getting into more trouble.
10) A wealthy family living in an upscale neighborhood in Los Angeles experiences drama and humor as they get themselves into one wacky situation after another.

But, I dont know what else it could be, so Id bet on an error in the description. 😀
