What To Watch - A podcast by Entertainment Weekly
Categories:
On this weekend's What to Watch: Bridgerton is finally back for its second smoldering season, this time with the attention turning to eldest Bridgerton child Anthony, played by Jonathan Bailey, as he tries to find a wife, while Penelope tries to conceal her identity as Lady Whistledown from everyone, including her close friend Eloise Bridgerton. It's time for the Oscars, where we have three hosts — Amy Schumer, Wanda Sykes, and Regina Hall — there's a close race for Best Picture between The Power of the Dog and CODA, and it's very likely Will Smith is going home with his first win. Olivia Rodrigo tells us about her new Disney+ film, driving home 2 u (a Sour film); and Lizzo is searching for dancers with big talent and confident curves to join her on tour on her docuseries Lizzo's Watch Out for the Big Grrrls. And Apple TV+ debuts the new series Pachinko, based on the popular novel of the same name, starring 2021 Oscar winner Youn Yuh-Jung; EW critic Kristen Baldwin calls it an early frontrunner for Best Show of 2022. Bridgerton's Jonathan Bailey tells us what he's watching. Plus, entertainment headlines — including one cancellation and several show renewals and announcements at Netflix — our Sound Bite of the Week courtesy of The Lost City star Sandra Bullock, and trivia.
