...tongued grandmother delivers sassy put-downs and motivational lectures to a brood of squabbling family members. Coward's plot reaches a climax as the actor finds out that several pestering women have all booked passage on the same boat he's taking to Africa. Perry's culminates with the cast enlisting the audience in a sing-along of Earth, Wind and Fire hits. At the Broadway theater, I didn't see a single black face. At Madison Square Garden, I was just about the only white...
...cast of Jersey Shore - gearing up to shoot Season 2 in the next few months - camera-readiness is second nature. These are the children of reality TV. In February 1992 - literally a generation ago - The Real World introduced MTV's viewers to living in public.

Some of these plot tweaks can be waved away because Big Love has a narrative more hurtling and congested than any series I know; it makes Mad Men's plotting seem staid by comparison ... But Olsen...
From a thousand years B.C right up to the Clinton years, we've treated fractures like Carol's with closed reduction and casting. "Treating it closed" meant we set it ("reduced the fracture"), i.e. pulled and twisted (hopefully with some anesthesia) to get the pieces into the best position possible, then we held the wrist still in a plaster cast for a month and a half - 40 days and 40 nights being the magic healing time for most things orthopedic.
