What to Watch podcast: Get ready for Bold Boimler vs. K'ranch on the new season of Star Trek: Lower Decks

On today's What to Watch: Star Trek: Lower Decks returns for its second season, addressing that big season 1 finale cliffhanger — now, the crew has to rescue Captain Freeman and contend with a monster called K'ranch...a combo of ketchup and ranch. On his new show The End Is Nye, Bill Nye shows how we can survive inevitable natural and manmade disasters — but also how we can try to prevent them from even happening. Danny DeVito voices Devil on the animated series Little Demon, where he meets his daughter, the antichrist, voiced by DeVito's daughter Lucy.

Archer star Amber Nash tells us what she's watching. Plus trivia and entertainment headlines — including the cast of season 34 of The Amazing Race, a huge season premiere crossover for all three Law & Order series, and the SVU star who's leaving the show.
