...talk. Although the operation is entirely digital, the work is nonetheless laborious. Garud, who is employed by a Bombay studio called Crest Communication, has to manipulate Ferny's lip movements to match the words the character speaks in Jakers! The Adventures of Piggley Winks, an Emmy Award-nominated cartoon serial on America's PBS network. While Garud handles Ferny's lip-synching, a colleague is in charge of the movements of other taurine body parts; another is making one of Ferny's friends, a sheep named Wiley, come to life. The work might be time consuming and repetitive, but Garud...

My wife, a glass-half-full kind of woman, reminded me that our daughter is "19 and there's no stopping her." True.

...Besides "Law and Order: Serial Repetition" (OK, actually it's subtitled "Trial by Jury"), NBC's new dramas include "Medical Investigation," perhaps the most boring title in television history (close runners-up for that honor are "LAX" and "Hawaii"). These dramas concern, surprisingly, medical investigators, Los Angeles International Airport (airport code LAX) and police in Hawaii. Later in the season we'll see "Revelations," a spooky looking eight-episode "limited series" about the end times that will try to ride the "Left Behind" apocalyptic craze - although in what may be a slightly tone-deaf way. The series focuses on characters...
