Pauley Perrette Returns to CBS in the New Comedy Broke

After fifteen seasons on the CBS crime juggernaut NCIS, Pauley Perrette left the show amidst a swirl of drama two years ago, and while it didn't sour her relationship with the Tiffany Network, it apparently left her itching to change genres. She returns tonight in the new multicam sitcom, Broke. Also tonight: Matt LeBlanc returns for the fourth season of Man with a Plan, Brooklyn Nine-Nine welcomes another stellar guest star, and How to Get Away With Murder returns with the first of its final six episodes. Here's what's new and noteworthy on TV this Thursday:

SERIES PREMIERE: When middle-aged trust funder Javier (Jaime Camil) is cut off from the family fortune in Broke, he and his wife (Natasha Leggero) turn to his estranged sister Jackie (Pauley Perrette) as they attempt to get back on their feet and learn the ways of the (real) world. Watch the preview. 9:30 PM ET on CBS

NEW EPISODE: As Primetimer's Tara Ariano writes today,  Brooklyn Nine-Nine has a rich history of casting some of our favorite comedic actors as relatives of the squad.
