- "The It List" is Yahoo's weekly look at the best in pop culture. With the coronavirus pandemic in mind, here are our picks for the week of March 8. What do you get when you mix the silly premise of Jim Carrey's 2008 movie "Yes Man" with the compact time restrictions of an episode of "24"? Jennifer Garner's new flick, "Yes Day." Garner plays a mom used to telling her kids "no."

- No! Absolutely not! Nope on a rope!

- Until her daughter pitches the idea of a day devoted to only saying "yes," leading the whole family to tap in to their wilder side.

- Windows down!

- What?

- What do we do?

- One word, two letters-- N-O?

- Windows down!

[MUSIC - OWL CITY & CARLY RAE JEPSEN, "GOOD TIME"]

- Yes Day!

- "South Park" is back with another special episode. Following up the politically incorrect insanity of their pandemic special episode comes the natural followup, one devoted to vaccinations. Over the course of an hour, expect Butters to join QAnon, a vaccine black market, and the usual highly confrontational hijinx.

- Six feet apart, please!

- Come on out and do something about it then!

- Why don't you come say that to my face?

- Yeah? Can I come say it to your face? I'll come say it to your face!

- No, no, no!

- "The Masked Singer" is back on NBC with another season. And by the looks of it, this season is even crazier in terms of outrageous outfits. In addition to an ominous looking black swan, there's also a pair of truly creepy Russian dolls. How are their lips moving like that?

- (SINGING) Through the surface, where they can't hurt us. We're far from the shallow now.

- Come back next week to check out Yahoo's "It List."
