Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of Nov 1, 2024. If you want a hit of nostalgia, Robert Zemeckis, Tom Hanks, and Robin Wright are back in theaters with the generational film "Here." Also in theaters is a unique faith-based fighting film called “The Carpenter,” which mixes a bunch of things that you wouldn't usually put together but actually worked! The pick-of-the-week goes to the DisneyPlus Streaming documentary “Music by John Williams,” which offers two hours of goosebump-inducing music as you bask in the man's supreme musical talent . Also on streaming, Netflix’s season two of the drama “The Diplomat” brings back Keri Russell as the U.S. Ambassador to London trying to work through delicate geo-political situations while investigating a bombing that hit her husband.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of October 25, 2024. The weekend's big movie is “Venom: The Last Dance.” For which Andy had to set aside his objections to a Spider-Man Universe film without Spider-Man to admit it was reasonably entertaining. What was more than entertaining is “Conclave,” featuring Ralph Fiennes and the rest of the Cardinals choosing a new Pope; this is one of the best movies of the year, which is no surprise as it is based off of a best-selling fiction novel. Also in theaters is the quirky horror romantic comedy "Your Monster." And on streaming, Season 3 of the Netflix “The Lincoln Lawyer” is another fine entry into one of the best legal dramas on TV.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of October 18, 2024. Bring the tissues for "We Live in Time” and enjoy the rich chemistry between Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh. Michael Keaton stars in another film this year, this time playing a father trying to repair a strained relationship with his daughter in “Goodrich.” The film highlights the versatility of Keaton and the strong performance of Mila Kunis, who plays his daughter. Amazon Prime’s “Brothers” reminds Andy of comedies before streaming, with Peter Dinklage and Josh Brolin playing criminal twins and enjoyable scene-stealing performances by Glenn Close and Brendan Fraser. And Anna Kendrick's directorial debut in Netflix’s “Woman of the Hour” has some tense scenes and takes great care not to glorify the actual serial killer story it is based on.
