On the show today, Em’s diving into Predator: Badlands — the new chapter in the iconic sci-fi franchise that’s taken a whacky turn she never saw coming.

Then, our entertainment writers drop by to share their weekend picks. One of which is a haunting drama featuring two of our very favourite actors.

And finally, Squid Game: The Challenge is back. But can a real-life version of the world’s most dangerous game live up to the phenomenon that started it all? We’ve got thoughts.
