...failure of every one of the Seinfeld-alum shows, few think Matt LeBlanc's much-hyped solo sitcom is a guaranteed success. In the first episode the still none-too-bright Joey moves to Los Angeles to pursue his acting career. He moves in with his sister (Drea de Matteo, late of The Sopranos) and her extremely bright and nerdy 20year-old son, who is, yes, a rocket scientist. And, oops, there's a cute girl next door.

From 20-year-old Shiva Keshavan, who carried the hopes of 1.1 billion Indians with him down the icy luge track (he came in a surprising 33rd out of 50), to slalom skier Gian Matteo Giordani, who will represent the tiny European enclave of San Marino today, none of them entered believing they had a chance to end up on the podium. Some, like South African Alpine skier Alex Heath, think they could strike gold, if only they had the funding (and the training...
