Abercrombie and Nautica has skyrocketed. Verrrry interesting... I saw Almost Famous last week and got further confirmation that Cameron Crowe is one of the most consistent Hollywood directors. If you look at Say Anything, Singles, Jerry Maguire, and now Almost Famous, you'll see his ability to set up a cliche and then obliterate it. His comedy depends on lulling you into a comfort zone and then yanking you out of it. And it doesn't hurt that Kate Hudson has Goldie Hawn's sexual energy... My favorite newspaper headline in the past week: "Prince William in Chile, Sleeping...
Commercial deals encourage teachers and administrators to make decisions based on non-educational considerations. For example, Greenbrier High School in Evans, Ga. made international news in March 1998 when Principal Gloria Hamilton suspended senior Mike Cameron for disrupting the school's "Coke in Education Day." Greenbrier High was competing to win the $10,000 prize offered by the Coca-Cola Company to the high school that developed the best plan for marketing Coke-sponsored promotional business discount cards. On that day in March, Cameron, along with 1,200 or so of his classmates, was lined up in the school parking...
...Commission chair rails against Fox and NBC's decision not to broadcast the first presidential debates. While CBS and ABC will show the 90-minute Bush-Gore slugfest in all its (potentially tedious) glory, the naughtier networks have bowed to the allure of ratings, offering a premiere of James Cameron's slinky "Dark Angel" and the debut game of the baseball playoffs...

But while reports of Cameron's whip-cracking approach on his sets are legion, he truly has stepped back since co-writing the first episode, leaving daily operations to Eglee. "The way to keep a show alive is to create a strong team and empower them," says Cameron. "Otherwise, if this thing's successful, I don't get to make another movie for two or three years." And he and Eglee say the series will emphasize relationships...
Dark Angel (Fox, Tuesdays starting Oct. 3, 9 p.m. E.T.) is also, as co-star Michael Weatherly puts it, a "gene-splicing experiment" of the styles of its two producers. Eglee, a veteran of Moonlighting and Murder One, originally thought of the show as "an urban youth ensemble." Cameron came up with the terrorist "infocalypse" and the central character--a bike-messenger-cum-thief, on the run from the military program that created her, who partners with an underground journalist named Logan (Weatherly) to search for her roots...
