...Rock, pain has turned to pleasure. He smiles as he recalls a day not too long ago when he was walking around a studio lot in Hollywood and ran into Will Smith. And then he ran into Chris Tucker. And then he looked in the papers and saw that Dr. Dolittle was the No. 1 film. "It's a good time to be a young, black comedian," says Rock, who is looking for a film to do with Tucker. "Of course, that's easy for me to say because I'm one of the people working...
...figure purchases. And a 10,000-word magazine article is often more than enough source material for a two-hour movie; in some cases, they're arguably better than 800-page books, which are harder to cut down." Nonetheless, a recent Variety study pointed out that of 146 major studio releases last year, only three were based on articles, although this may be due to a lag in the development cycle...

The channel's biggest star is New Orleans chef Emeril Lagasse, who drives his studio audience to squeals by overloading dishes with garlic, Tabasco and wine and simultaneously yelling "Bam!" The network's newest show lands Bobby Flay--a guy's guy of a chef--outdoors in the Hamptons (the Hamptons!) with an annoyingly coy female comic (female!) and a weekly guest. The first week...
