Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of April 25, 2025. Ben Affleck returns as the assassin/accountant on the autism spectrum in “The Accountant 2,” and this follow-up features great chemistry with Jon Bernthal as his brother. Also in theaters is a locally made film about Utah's first Olympic gold medalist, titled “Raising the Bar: The Alma Richards Story,” by our Movie Show friend, Writer/Director T.C. Christensen. This is a faith-filled family film with a sprinkling of patriotism for extra measure and an all-over good sports story.

On streaming, there's a new Tom Hardy movie on Netflix called “Havoc” with lots of bullets and lots of mess. And Star Wars fans are rejoicing as the second and final season of “Andor” hits DisneyPlus. Don't miss out on this tie-in to the 2016 movie “Rogue One,” as the lore of that galaxy far, far away is everything fans like Andy could hope for: nuanced, with plenty of intrigue, visually immersive, and even heartbreaking at times.

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.
