What’s on your HDTV: ‘Beasts of No Nation’, ‘Continuum’ finale
Tonight we have our first listing that’s also viewable in virtual reality, as the Democratic Party’s presidential debate airs on CNN and via NextVR’s streaming (click here for instructions on viewing via Gear VR headset, and it’s also on Facebook, but in 2D). Bigger news still, is the release of Netflix’s first original movie, Cary Fukunaga’s Beasts of No Nation with Idris Elba. Sci-fi fans will want to check out the final episode of Continuum (finally airing here in the US), and on Saturday night Tracy Morgan will be back on SNL. Gamers (that aren’t still powering through tracks on the new Rock Band) can check out the first episode of Telltale Games’ Minecraft: Story Mode on any system or Yoshi’s Woolly World on Wii U, while Aladdin and Team America: World Police top the Blu-ray drops this week. Look after the break to check out each day’s highlights, including trailers and let us know what you think (or what we missed).
