Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of July 12, 2024. This weekend Channing Tatum and Scarlett Johansson take off in "Fly Me To The Moon," which mixes historical fact and historical fiction for a fun result. It is a limited release, but it is worth your time to check out "Robot Dreams," which is one of the best-animated features from 2023 that is finally playing locally. On streaming, the series "Me" on Apple TV+ is like a combination of "Heroes" and "X-Men" but for the younger kid set. And if you need an NFL fix to tide you over a couple of months until the new season starts, check out "Receiver" on Netflix. Also, don't forget that the original 1994 animated “The Lion King" is getting a one-week, 30th anniversary re-release in theaters this week!

The brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing nerdy with a goal to publish a weekly "What to Watch on the Weekend" minisodes, taken from KSL-TV's Friday segment, and two deep-dives a month on shows, creative works, artists, local events, and other fandom topics.

Based in the beautiful beehive state, Fan Effect celebrates Utah's unique fan culture as it has been declared The Nerdiest State in America by TIME, and is hosted by KSL Movie Show's Andy Farnsworth and KSL Podcasts' KellieAnn Halvorsen.
