...followed the Beatles template. JB 3D is basically A Hard Day's Night, but with the proportion of onstage to backstage material reversed: more of the former, less of the latter. It's constructed as a day in the life, following the lads from early morning through some guest appearances, an interlude in a park and then the big show. Like the Beatles movie, this one has the motifs of captive celebrity - the brothers lithely escape from fans chasing them down city streets - and of the stars taking their fame with sensible aplomb, as if clarity comes only...

...piece of Harvey hokum that led Keith Olbermann to apostrophize, "Probably time for you to give us your final 'Good day!' " But Harvey was no quitter. He reduced his workload to a few broadcasts a week (his son Paul Jr., a longtime writer for the show, was a frequent guest host), but he would not give up the gig after a bout of pneumonia, or his 90th birthday, or even Lynne's death, in 2007, after 67 years of marriage.

While the four regular actors spoke their lines with confidence, even the more hesitant recital of Cianci still possessed...

...According to the Harvard Foundation, the choice of Aykroyd as celebrity guest helps to achieve the two major goals of Cultural Rhythms. “The show’s aim is showcasing diversity by putting Harvard performing groups on a big stage where students and those in the Boston area unable to attend smaller shows can see them,” says Hairston. However, the Harvard Foundation also hopes to provide entertainment to students and the general community with this production. “We’re going to keep this show consistently fun and funny...

...guitarist Nick Zinner. Telephone dial tones, the chanting voice of M.I.A. and a tribal drum beat transform Zinner’s guitar into an infectious rhythm. Spank Rock’s frenetic rhymes provide the verses to round out a solidly danceable hit. The clear cohesion between the various guest acts and the production of N.A.S.A., which works so well on “Gifted” and “Watchadoin?,” is exactly what is lacking on the less successful tracks. The project at times gets caught up in its own concept—picking unexpected...
