Weekend Watch: The Hidden Comedy Gem On Disney+ & The Show That Will Make Parents Cry

On the show today, we're bringing you three unmissable recommendations. First up, the criminally under-discussed comedy 'Deli Boys' on Disney+ that features two privileged brothers inheriting not just their father's convenience store empire, but also his secret criminal organisation.

Plus we're diving into why the 'Severance' Season 2 finale has completely divided viewers and we're breaking down why Adam Scott deserves all the awards for the show that continues to dominate conversation about work-life balance and identity.

And the confronting but critically important Netflix series 'Adolescence' has become the platform's most-watched show for good reason.We look at why this examination of online radicalisation and its impact on young boys might be difficult viewing for parents, but also why that makes it essential viewing in today's digital landscape.

Why Everyone's Team Benny Blanco Now & The Influencer Morning Routine That Broke The Internet

On the show today, we're diving into the latest chaotic MAFS drama, where a man who once punched a wall over his partner's dating history is now defending his own decision to date other women during the experiment… and we dissect the emotional intelligence gap that has everyone talking.

Plus, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco's relationship is being viewed in a whole new light after their latest interview. We get you, Benny. 

And we're analysing why an influencer's absurd morning routine starting at 3:50am has captivated over 100 million viewers.

The One Detail In Those Romantic Jennifer Aniston & Pedro Pascal Photos Everyone Missed

On the show today, Margot Robbie is getting a lot of hate for the photos that have been released for her upcoming movie. But we think we’ve figured out what’s going on behind the scenes.

Plus, photos of Jennifer Aniston and Pedro Pascal having a seeming romantic dinner have gone viral, yet the most important details from these photos have been overlooked.
