There is also the endless fascination with Jackson -- a man turned inside out, his inner child on the outside, his adult self buried deep within.

"He would go to the mall at the busiest time, and I would ask him why, and he said, 'I want to go when it's jumping...
...show for a mainstream American viewership will be a challenge. Absolutely Fabulous is so appealing because it is as trenchantly sophisticated as it is hilariously base; American sitcoms are rarely allowed to be either.

...guzman is just the sort of person you'd trust with a gun. Three years ago, after buying a weekend home in the Endless Mountains of Pennsylvania, Guzman decided to take up hunting. But before he bought his 12-gauge Remington shotgun, he enrolled in a National Rifle Association safety course. "I didn't want to be a hypocrite as a firearm owner who doesn't practice firearm safety," he said. But now Guzman, 41, a sign-shop owner, is thinking of quitting the organization. While he supports the N.R.A.'s education programs, he is disturbed that in the midst...
