(USA Today) – Welcome back, Carter.

A year and a half after leaving CBS’ Person of Interest, Taraji P. Henson is back in Tuesday’s episode (10 ET/PT). Her NYPD detective, Joss Carter, was shot to death in 2013 — midway through the show’s third season — before she could identify corrupt officials. Now, as the series fights for its own survival, she’s back in flashback form as colleague Reese (Jim Caviezel) tries to solve one of her cold cases.

“Our show has done flashbacks from the very beginning,” says series creator Jonathan Nolan. “We always knew we were going to revisit this character. We just had to find the right moment for it” that also meshed with Henson’s schedule at her current job on Fox’s freshman hit Empire. Nolan reached out to Henson late last year, saying he told her, “‘We have a killer pitch, are you up for it?'”

It’s a good thing she was game. The shoot called for Henson and Caviezel to spend a lot of time sitting in cars in frigid February in New York, where the show is filmed.

Seth Curry Makes Impressive Debut with the Golden State Warriors

Seth looked comfortable in his new uniform, seamlessly fitting into the Warriors’ offensive and defensive system. He finished the night with an impressive 14 points, becoming one of the team’s top scorers for the game. Seth’s points came in a variety of ways – floaters, spot-up three-pointers, mid-range jumpers, and a handful of aggressive drives that kept the Oklahoma City Thunder defense on its heels.

Tuesday night was anything but ordinary for fans in San Francisco as Seth Curry made his highly anticipated debut as a new member of the Golden State Warriors. Seth didn’t disappoint, delivering a performance that not only showcased his scoring ability but also demonstrated his added value to the team.

At 35, the 12-year NBA veteran on Monday signed a contract to play with the Warriors for the rest of the season.

One of the most memorable moments of the evening came before Seth even scored his first points. As he checked into the game, the Chase Center erupted into applause, with fans rising to their feet to give the newest Warrior a standing ovation.

The crowd’s reaction was a testament not only to Seth’s reputation as a sharpshooter but also to the excitement he brings to the Warriors. It was clear that fans quickly embraced Seth as one of their own, eager to see what he could bring to the team’s championship aspirations.

Warriors’ superstar Steph Curry – Seth’s brother – did not play due to an injury. One could only imagine what it would be like if the Curry brothers were on the court together. Magic in the making.

Seth’s debut proved to be a turning point for the Warriors. Not only did he contribute on the scoreboard, but he also brought a sense of confidence and composure to the floor.

While their loss last night, OKC 124 – GSW 112, Seth’s impact was a game-changer and there’s more yet to come. Beyond statistics, it was clear that Seth’s presence elevated the team’s performance, giving the Warriors a new force as they look to make a deep playoff run.
