The long weekend is finally here, giving us all a chance to relax, enjoy the sun, and maybe watch some great entertainment from the comfort of our couch. There’s a lot happening in the world of sports and movies this Fourth of July, and I reached out to my colleagues to see what they’re planning to watch. Together, we’ve got you covered with a variety of choices.

Let’s start with a quick rundown of what’s on this weekend:

– “The Twilight Zone” marathon is happening both on H&I and Syfy channels from Thursday to Monday.
– Wimbledon continues with the third round starting on Friday at 6 a.m. on ESPN.
– The Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest (Men’s) airs on Friday at 12 p.m. on ESPN2.
– On Saturday, catch “A League of Their Own” on AMC+ at 8:30 a.m.
– Freeform will be showing “The Sandlot” on Saturday at 11:30 a.m.
– The PSG vs. Bayern Munich match for the Club World Cup will be on TNT, truTV, Univision, and DAZN on Saturday at noon.
– France vs. England in the Women’s Euros airs on Fox on Saturday at 3 p.m.
– The Yankees face the Mets on FS1 on Saturday at 4 p.m.

– The Gold Cup final between the U.S. and Mexico will be on Fox on Sunday at 7 p.m.

Most of these events are available on TV or streaming services like Fubo, ESPN+, YES, and SNY.

So what am I watching this weekend? Here are my top picks:

– The New York Yankees at New York Mets Subway Series is a must-watch for me. Let’s see if Juan Soto II can heat up the rivalry. And who knows, maybe we’ll see a breakdance battle between Aaron Judge and Soto to settle things.
– The Seattle Storm at New York Liberty WNBA game on Sunday will be exciting. I’m rooting for the Liberty, but they’ll have a tough matchup against the Storm. Expect a high-scoring, fast-paced game.
– Lastly, check out the “Beautiful” music video by Pharrell and Snoop Dogg for a fun, summer vibe that bridges music and sports with fantastic NFL throwbacks.

Don’t forget to catch “The Twilight Zone” marathon, a timeless tradition that’s perfect for the Fourth of July. And for sports fans, I recommend the episode “A Game of Pool” for a thrilling watch.

Enjoy your weekend of entertainment, stay cool, and have a fantastic Fourth of July!
