Are you looking for new releases in Film or Television to watch this weekend of March 12th!? Well, THS has you covered in our weekly series! So, make sure to come back each week as we compile all of our recommendations for you to check out on your days off.
However, I wanted to break down this list and make it a little more personal. Kind of like when you walk into a book store and see the wall of employee recommendations. So, I’ll be breaking down this list as to what we at THS are watching, not necessarily every single thing releasing. So, first up Shawn!
WHAT IS SHAWN WATCHING?
I will be heading to the theater to watch Ultrasound this weekend! I saw it at the Tribecca Film Festival last year and it made my Top 5 List! I’m ready to see it again!
WHAT’S SARAH WATCHING?
Turning Red is coming to Disney+ and it’s definitely on my agenda. And a show I’ve been waiting for for 2 YEARS is finally back!! So, I will be hiding away watching Upload season 2 on Prime Video.
I’m also watching a handful of screeners to get reviews and videos ready for all our THS and SLTAngst readers/viewers!

This weekend, I’m jumping onto The Adam Project and Turning Red bandwagons! Both films look so good! I can’t wait to watch them.

My weekend will be playing catch-up with my DVR. I’ll be binge-watching some episodes of the TNT drama Snowpiercer that I’ve fallen behind on. I’m also planning to rewatch the first episode of That Dirty Black Bag on AMC+ which I reviewed earlier this week. If you like Westerns do yourself a favor and check this one out.
WHAT IS KAT WATCHING?
I’m loving the new Proud Family: Louder and Prouder. So, I’m continuing to watch that along with Brain Games On The Road, and the new Law & Order. I’m also going to watch the Summer Of Soul documentary this weekend since it’s available now on Disney+! As well as, Turning Red!
