...pilot script, at least, MacFarlane's pell-mell wit recalls The Simpsons' fevered early-'90s creative peak. Punch lines spill out furiously as the show spirals into multilayered flashbacks and inventive fantasies (when Peter wonders whether to lie to his wife, for instance, the angel and the devil that duel cunningly over his shoulders turn out to have angels and devils dueling over theirs...
...Meet Joe Black, in which Death with a big D takes over the body of Brad Pitt so that he can have beautifully lit sex with Anthony Hopkins' soulful daughter (Claire Forlani). The film, released last week, is similar in theme to last spring's modest hit City of Angels, in which Nicolas Cage, playing an angel who escorts people to heaven, decides to become mortal himself so that he can have beautifully lit sex with heart surgeon Meg Ryan--and you have to admire the daring of a movie in which Meg Ryan playing a heart surgeon...
Women jazz singers are popping up like new sitcoms these days, but Kendra Shank's delectable voice--warm-toned, fine-grained, quietly sexy--sets her well apart from the crowd, as does her knack for picking unhackneyed, slightly off-center material (Abbey Lincoln's Angel Face, Jule Styne's You Say You Care).

Get in on the ground floor: this lady is going...

Corella takes risks in his dancing and his boundless energy brings him to the realm of greatness. His technical ability is astounding, and it is matched by his charming enthusiasm as he flirts with the audience, making pirouettes look easy. His jumps were huge and effortless, achieving real height...
...male front, crooner Jimmy Powers, playedby Jonathan Simpson '99, is cheesy to the point ofperfection. Along with the dynamic but sometimespatchy-sounding Angel City quartet, he insinuatesa sentimental path into our ready hearts.My ready heart. Lieutenant Munoz (RodrigoCharazo) was a favorite as the figure of dissent,with his deceptively sunny but really acid piece"All You Have to Do is Wait." It is with "Funny,"towards the end of the show, that Roulleau finallysinks his teeth into Stine and shows some fire inthe eye. However, this is not really a failingwhen playing a character which is generally staidand less than...
