“Colin from Accounts”, “SNL” biopic “Saturday Night”, and Netflix rom-com “Nobody Wants This” top this week's Must List
A "Big Gay" musical and Tim Leong's entertaining guide to Marvel visuals round out our picks for the weekend of Sept. 27.
With Entertainment Weekly's 35th anniversary around the corner, I've been spending a lot of time thinking about legacy — which is maybe why I was drawn to celebrating Batman Day at the Warner Bros. lot this past weekend…. Well, that and my husband's fanaticism over the character (we got married at Adam West's old house!). After a special studio tour focused on locations where the Caped Crusader has filmed over the years, we were treated to a screening of 1989's Batman introduced by the granddaughter of one of the original Warner Bros. We love being of the moment here at EW, but nothing beats some good Hollywood history and nostalgia. —Patrick Gomez, Editor-in-Chief

Colin from Accounts
The delightfully awkward Aussie rom-com about a couple brought together by a nipple flashing and an injured dog is back for a stellar second season on Paramount+, as creators/stars Harriet Dyer (Ashley) and Patrick Brammall (Gordon) push their characters to uncomfortable new places — including a performance by an organization called WAWAM (Women Against Women Against Men) and a wedding dance floor scene you simply will not be able to unsee. This season goes deeper and darker, delving into the psychological problems that sometimes even an adorable canine with wheels cannot fix. —Dalton Ross, Editorial Director
Saturday Night
Jason Reitman's Saturday Night Live origin story puts you on the floor of Studio 8H moments before showtime as everything goes wrong. SNL fans will delight in Easter eggs aplenty hinting at future sketches and the nostalgia of watching TV history created in real time. —Jillian Sederholm, News Director

Nobody Wants This
Noah (Adam Brody) is a charming single rabbi. Joanne (Kristen Bell) is a sex-positive podcaster who is anything but religious (or Jewish). You see where this is going — but thanks to winning leads and a stellar supporting cast, getting there is a delight. —Kristen Baldwin, TV Critic

The Big Gay Jamboree
From the whimsical mind behind Titanique comes this outrageous Off-Broadway musical. When Stacey (creator Marla Mindelle) blacks out after 18 Jägerbombs, she wakes up hungover in a 1940s golden-age musical and must figure out how to escape in front of a live audience. What could possibly go wrong? —Maureen Lee Lenker, Senior Writer
Marvel Super Graphic
Who's faster, Quicksilver or Makkari? EW alum Tim Leong can answer that (and more). His new visual guide to the Marvel Universe is packed with colorful infographics and trivia designed for both hardcore comics geeks and casual fans alike. —Chuck Kerr, Creative Director
