Andy's KSL-TV #WhatToWatch: ‘The Unbreakable Boy' has an unbreakable spirit  

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of February 21, 2025. A nice, feel-good family movie called “The Unbreakable Boy” leads the way as Zachary Levi plays the father of Austin, an autistic boy with brittle bone disease and an unbreakable spirit. “Win or Lose“ is a new series from Pixar on DisneyPlus that looks at a junior high softball championship game from the perspective of many different participants/watchers. If you're a basketball fan, “Court of Gold” on Netflix is a must-watch, taking you behind the scenes of the 2024 Olympic men's basketball tournament and letting you get to know the participants better and re-live the exciting final games. A new season of “Reacher “ on Prime Video continues the series' hot streak of addictive episodes featuring Alan Ritchson as the titular Jack ‘Reacher.’ Both Producer KellieAnn, who has read many of the books based on the series, and Andy find this show an action-packed hit! –and wish we didn't have to wait for weekly episodes.
