On the show today…

In exciting TV news, one of Australia’s greatest sitcoms of all time, Mother and Son, is returning to ABC starring Denise Scott and Matt Okine. Here’s what you need to know about the reboot of this classic show.

And the Aria Awards took place last night, bringing back Australian music’s biggest night of celebration after a COVID hiatus. Unfortunately, the reactions to the broadcast have been pretty brutal, with many people labeling it the worst in Aria history. So now we need to unpack exactly what went wrong.

Plus, it’s Weekend Watch time! Today we have two must-watch new movies to recommend to you, both with blockbuster casts.
