Tubi is the latest streaming service to find its niche in original programming. After the success of "Sidelined: The QB and Me" in 2024, director Justin Wu was back at it with "Sidelined 2: Intercepted."

Is a "Sidelined 3" in the works? Could there be an extended universe for this romantic comedy series aimed at older teens and young adults that stars TikTok influencer Noah Beck? (And for the Gen X crowd, the movie also stars James Van Der Beek of "Dawson's Creek" and "Varsity Blues" fame.)

Bruce Miller has interviews with Wu and stars Roan Curtis, Charlie Gillespie and Drew Ray Tanner. 

Miller and co-host Terry Lipshetz also talk "Wicked," Broadway shows in New York, "The Beast in Me" and more!
