What To Watch This Weekend Planet Of The Apes Emmy Nominees

Though this week’s big new release is Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, there’s plenty to watch whether you want to head to the theater or stay at home. This week we have, of course, apes, but also some great new TV in Hemlock Grove and Extant. Read on — you’re sure to find something worth watching this weekend. Still in theaters is Transformers: Age of Extinction, so if you aren’t in the mood for man vs. ape, you can always go for man vs. robot. And if you were interested in seeing Joon-ho Bong’s post-apocalyptic train movie Snowpiercer, it’s opening in more cities this weekend and it’s now available to buy or rent on iTunes — still, if you want to catch it in a theater, check your local listings to see if it’s playing near you. Looking forward, Legend of Korra returns to Nickelodeon tonight after a break for the holiday, but Sunday’s the real busy TV day this weekend. TV watchers can look forward to the continuation of True Blood‘s final season on HBO, Guillermo del Toro’s The Strain premieres on FX, and both Masters of Sex season 2 and Ray Donovan season 2 premiere on Showtime. Set your DVRs! Heading into next week, 24: Live Another Day is taking its last bow on Monday night. Will this be the last we’ll see of Jack Bauer? Not if Fox thinks they can eke any more money out of this series.
