This weekend, Oprah sits down with Robin Thicke and asks him what the world wants to know – just where did he get that Beetlejuice suit? We’re kidding of course. But she will get his take on the now infamous Miley Cyrus twerk-fest during their performance at the MTV Music Awards. If you are big on conspiracy theories, catch Will Smith, Gene Hackman and Regina King in “Enemy of The State.” Although the technology is outdated, it’s still a good take on surveillance and scary government tactics. And after scoring all those points last week, the Cowboys take on the Washington Football Team on Sunday night, and that’s good news for the struggling Washington Football Team as they’ve beaten the Cowboys twice in a row. Here’s what else is going on this weekend.
