James Franco's Emmy-nominated series “Making A Scene" comes back for its third season Monday to impersonate some of pop culture's most memorable moments.
While the first two seasons focused on the buzziest movies and television shows, the third season has a huge emphasis on music videos. Each 10-minute episode will explore a largely improvisational short skit which will include, “Beyonce's Express” mixing up Queen B's “Lemonade” and the iconic film “Pineapple Express;” “Famous Potter,” which will mash up Kanye West's “Famous” with “Harry Potter;” and “Anaconda Scissorhands” that will explore a parody of Nicki Minaj's “Anaconda” and Edward Scissorhands.
The topics for this season were randomly determined using a dart board and the show's reoccurring spinning wheel.
