Following three months of hiatus since the show aired its last episode in January, the CBS legal drama Shark returns tonight with the much-awaited episode "Bar Fight." For the remaining episodes of the second season, Shark will once again shift to a new timeslot. Effective tonight, the network will be moving the series to Tuesdays at 9pm, which also applies for its next three broadcasts.
When we last saw Shark, Sebastian Stark (James Woods) saw a dark secret surface after a bullet with his name on it killed friend and former law partner Paul Faber (Joe Spano). In attempt to put the man responsible behind bars, Stark confessed to conniving in the cover-up of a murder 12 years ago. The question is will he lose his license for testifying?

“Family is always the most important thing. Always. Your marriage, your children -- that's life. That is what's important; that is the real substance of life,” Ryan, who is expecting her first child with second husband Christopher Eme, told ModernMom.com.
