Entertainment this weekend

"I'm in the Band," 6:45 p.m., Disney XD: This is a very funny comedy series that tells the story of an '80s rock band, Iron Weasel, that turns to teenager Tripp Campbell for help. He provides the band with a place to stay and in return gets a spot in the band and coaching on how to be a rock star. Steve Valentine, Greg Baker and Stephen Full play members of Iron Weasel, a mix of "Spinal Tap" and the Three Stooges.

MOVIES
"Fantastic Mr. Fox": With the fanciful, fantastic, funny and furry director Wes Anderson can take his place among the top stop-motion animation moviemakers. The film, based on the mind-twisting writings of Roald Dahl, has the animation charm of "Wallace & Gromit," the quirky humor of an early Woody Allen movie and the twisted tone of a good Quentin Tarantino production.

DVD
"Shorts": A rainbow-colored rock grants wishes to the person holding it. It takes more than an inspired idea to make a good movie. It takes execution, and that's where "Shorts"comes up ... well, short. But it is still amusing enough to keep youngsters entertained for a short while.
