Pop of the Morning airs from 7-9am and 11am-12pm and both shows premiered yesterday. Viewers will wake up with E! News coast-to-coast as Lilliana and Scott bring them the biggest pop culture, lifestyle and entertainment stories in a fun, lighthearted and engaging way.

Freeform's highly anticipated romantic comedy The Thing About Harry will premiere Saturday, Feb. 15, at 8 p.m. EST/PST, the film's cast announced in a special video. Directed by Peter Paige (Good Trouble, The Fosters), The Thing About Harry tells the story of high school enemies, uber-jock Harry and out-and-proud Sam, who are forced to share a car ride to their Missouri hometown for a friend's engagement party on Valentine's Day. Things take a turn when Sam learns Harry has come out. Stuck spending the night together in a roadside motel, Harry and Sam begin to develop a deep friendship - with neither admitting a potential romance may be brewing - leaving them wondering if one road trip could change the rest of their lives. The Thing About Harry stars Jake Borelli, Niko Terho, Britt Baron, Peter Paige and Karamo. The film is executive produced by Peter Paige, Greg Gugliotta (Good Trouble, The Fosters) and F.J. Denny. The film is written by Josh Senter and Peter Paige.
