The SCAD Savannah Film Festival’s third annual TV Sidebar is set, with four TV program screenings followed by award presentations and conversations with the stars of the series.

The fest, which runs October 24-31 in Savannah, GA will spotlight episodes of The Good Daughter, VisionQuest, Furious and The Lowdown.

Based on Karin Slaughter’s bestselling novel, The Good Daughter stars Meghann Fahy and Rose Byrne. Fahy will receive the Spotlight in Television Award on October 24 at a screening of one of the show’s episodes.

Written and executive produced by Slaughter and directed by Steph Green, the limited series premieres November 12 on Peacock.

The Disney+ series continues the story of Vision following the events of WandaVision, with Bettany returning to the role he has portrayed across the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The actor’s latest superhero installment will close out the trilogy that began with WandaVision, for which he received an Emmy nomination, and Agatha All Along.

Emmy Rossum will receive the Outstanding Achievement in Television Award on October 28 at a screening of the Hulu Original drama series Furious.
