...crop of chef memoirs includes a rather haughty cooking-school diary (Katherine Darling's Under the Table) and the life and times of a pastry chef (Dalia Jurgensen's Spiced) - naughtier than you'd expect - but the best of them by a mile is by a former chef of no particular distinction named Jason Sheehan, now an extraordinarily good food writer.

Damiano gave this movie the tone of a mildly bright comedy, with an underscoring full of broadly ironic pop music, including a version of Mickey and Sylvia's "Love Is Strange" with naughtier lyrics.

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...
