New series premiere: ‘Big Sky: Deadly Trails’ (10 p.m., ABC)

Technically, “Big Sky” is not a new series, but Season 3’s “Deadly Trails” installment definitely has an anthology feel, so we’re giving it the “new series” treatment.

In “Deadly Trails,” country singer Reba McEntire plays family matriarch Sunny Barnes, running a backcountry glamping business in Helena, Montana, with her husband Buck Barnes, played by McEntire’s real-life partner, Rex Linn.

Kylie Bunbury and Katheryn Winnick return to the series as Cassie and Jenny, along with a new sheriff, played by Jensen Ackles. The season starts with a camping excursion led by Sunny running into trouble, leading Cassie, Jenny and Sheriff Arlen to become tangled up in the mystery.

Some programming descriptions are provided by networks.
