Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of August 29, 2025. Labor Day weekend brings Austin Butler getting brutalized in "Caught Stealing," a violent action comedy that will make you question how much punishment one person can take. Also in theaters, Benedict Cumberbatch and Olivia Colman try to convince us that they love each other and then hate each other in "The Roses". And "Sharing Aloha" takes you behind the scenes at the Polynesian Cultural Center in Hawaii, letting you hear the amazing stories of those who appear in the famous show. And for streaming fans, "The Thursday Murder Club" on Netflix is a fun little murder mystery featuring Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, and Ben Kingsley.
The brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing nerdy; with a goal to publish a weekly "What to Watch on the Weekend" minisode 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.
