...during the brutal Pyrenees ascents. His rivals had a final long-shot chance to catch him, Saturday?s 34.5-mile time trial in Saint-Etieene, the penultimate stage of the Tour. Armstrong won the stage, his first on this year?s Tour. From the podium, tears filled his steel-blue eyes-he knew it was over...
Josh Lucas has only two real moves--the squint and the smile--but they're superstar-level moves. He also has those freaky blue Paul Newman eyes and a growly, cigarette-stained voice.

...includes a female soldier with a disturbingly Lynndie England--ish streak. An insurgent is hit by a projectile that vaporizes him from the waist up; his legs totter a few ghastly steps before collapsing. All this was nearly too much even for executive producer Steven Bochco (Hill Street Blues, NYPD Blue) when FX pitched him the idea. The show, he worried, "would by its very nature tend to be political if not politicized." He finally decided that the basic human drama was like that in his cop shows, and the content was ugly but necessary. "Without dramatizing the consequences...
