What to Watch: Weekend

It's Hollywood's biggest night and the night we can all remember (hopefully) why we love the movie films

Tune into the Academy Awards on Sunday at 5:30pm/8:30pm EST and then come by Screened to chat all things, good, bad, and ugly. Hopefully not a lot of ugly. Unless someone wants to wear a swan dress or a meat hat. That would be ugly.

1. Touch

9:00pm on Friday, FOX

Are you keeping up on the "dammit" counter? Don't worry, if not will update you. Dammit, he better.

2. Independent Spirit Awards7:00pm (and again at 10:00pm) on Saturday, IFC

The alternate Oscars that celebrates the achievements of "smaller" films this year. Yet, somehow Silver Linings Playbook fits into that category. Thanks Mr. Harvey. I think we can expect a lot of awards for the David O. Russell film (yay!) and Beasts of the Southern Wild (also yay!). Oh no, that is too many yays, I don't know who to root for this year. Dammit. (My counter in this article: 3)

3. End of the World

9:00pm on Saturday, SyFy

Some sci-fi obsessed clerks (and nerds) are the last hope for to save the world. Oh, and hello Greg Grunberg; are you a sci-fi nerd?

4. 85th Annual Academy Awards

5:30pm PST/8:30pm EST (Check your local listings for time)

Honoring the best achievements in film over the past year it's the Academy Awards. I know we can all the be cynical and think they suck, but I chose to believe they will just be fun, and inspiring and awesome. Who's with me?! Seth MacFarlane will probably tell a fart joke or two.

5. The Walking Dead

9:00pm on Sunday, AMC

This is the episode it is going to get awesome again, right? Right?!

6. Californication

7:30pm on Sunday, Showtime

After absolutely adoring season 5 of Hank Moody, season 6 is highly disappointing. In this weeks episode, they pull a little Almost Famous reference. Too bad they choose to reenact the worst scene of that movie.

7. Shameless

6:00pm on Sunday, Showtime

Fiona gets desperate after things are not going so well for the Gallagher family.

What are you talking about? Last weeks episode of walking dead was pretty freaking sweet.

I want to watch Seth MacFarlane host the Oscars. Should be interesting.
