TAGGED AS:

For nearly two decades, we here at Rotten Tomatoes have been diligently serving up film reviews to help audiences make informed decisions about the movies they see, and now, we’re excited to announce we’re expanding to a new format! Beginning this week, RT joins in on the conversation with the launch of a new weekly show called Rotten Tomatoes See It/Skip It.

Premiering on Facebook’s new video platform, Facebook Watch, Rotten Tomatoes See It/Skip It will cover the biggest films and hottest TV shows from both the critic and fan point of view. Our hosts Jacqueline Coley and Segun Oduolowu will trade opinions on everything from prestige cable dramas to superhero flicks, share reactions from Facebook viewers, and reveal a Tomatometer score for a film or TV series in each episode. Tune in every Thursday at 12:01am ET for a lively discussion that will help you make the most informed decisions possible about the movies and TV shows you want to see.
