Steven Bochco, 광주출장업소 a TV producer/writer behind many hit shows over the years, has died at age 74, according to a representative at Steven Bochco Productions. The spokesperson said Bochco died peacefully Sunday morning at 10:20 a.m. “Steven fought cancer with strength, courage, grace and his unsurpassed sense of humor,” Phillip Arnold said in a statement provided to CBS News. “He died peacefully in his sleep with his family close by.” Bochco’s TV credits include a wide array of programs such as “Hill Street Blues,” L.A. Law,” “Doogie Howser, M.D.” and “NYPD Blue.” Many of them were shows related to the law genre.

(CBS) “Contagion” opens Friday. Are you going to see it? Do stories about viruses really, really freak you out? Have you forgotten how bad “Outbreak” is? The movie, about a killer virus that travels the globe, 카지노 문자 has the critics saying “Meh,” along with lots of it-could-have-been-betters (and a few raves). In the Atlantic, the sub-headline says it all. “Impeccably cast and directed by Stephen Soderbergh, the film nonetheless feels impersonal.” In The Faster Times, Jonathan Kiefer writes, “‘Contagion’ is the name of the film because it’s also the name of the most developed character. That might seem unfair to the other characters, but such is the nature of the disaster-movie beast.” How does one make a bunch of scientists tracking a disease interesting? Good question. Claudia Puig writes in USA Today, “The first half of the film builds a haunting sense of dread. But once the medical community steps in to find a cure and players start to multiply as fast as infectious germs, the tension in this peripatetic docudrama dials down.” E! Online gives the movie a B-. For Manohla Dargis of the New York Times, the film works. She writes the film “is as ruthlessly effective as the malady at its cool, cool center.” Are you seeing “Contagion”? Let us know in the comments. And  come back here Monday to see  how it fared in...

For more lighthearted entertainment, rent “Shrek The Third” on DVD or pick up a copy of Duran Duran’s new album. MOVIES In the future, could an ocean by itself power an entire city? In “Southland Tales,” it does – with some rather catastrophic consequences. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Seann William Scott, Justin Timberlake and Mandy Moore stars in this sprawling epic about a futuristic version of Los Angeles that harnesses the power of the ocean to produce energy. In a legendary time of heroes, the mighty warrior “Beowulf” battles the demon Grendel and incurs the hellish wrath of the beast’s ruthlessly seductive mother. Their epic clash, which stars Ray Winstone in the title role and Anthony Hopkins and Angelina Jolie in the supporting cast, forges the timeless legend of Beowulf. Natalie Portman and Dustin Hoffman star in “Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium”, a tale about the most fantastic, most wonderful toy store in the world – but also the strangest. When Mr. Magorium, the store’s 243-year-old owner, bequeaths ownership to its manager, a dark and ill-omened change begins to take over. PBS’ “Nova” airs its newest two-hour program “Judgment Day: Intelligent Design on Trial”on Tuesday at 8 p.m. and revisits the federal case of Kitzmiller vs. Dover School District, which became the first legal test of intelligent design (the idea that life is too complex to have...

(CBS) Mel Gibson is teaming up with Warner Bros. to develop a film about the life of Jewish hero Judah Maccabee. Entertainment Weekly confirms that the Oscar-winner is working with screenwriter Joe Eszterhas to write a script about the warrior, who teamed up with his father and four brothers to lead the Jewish revolt against the Greek-Syrian armies that had conquered Judea in the second century B.C. The film will be produced through Gibson’s Icon Productions, and he will have the option to direct the film if he chooses.

The actor has faced accusations of anti-Semitism, and came under fire for unleashing an anti-Semitic tirade during his drunken driving arrest in 2006. Gibson apologized after the incident, admitting at the time that he said “despicable” things to authorities.  The Anti-Defamation League has condemned Gibson’s involvement with the film. ADL’s national director Abraham H. Foxman said in an official statement: Not only has Mel Gibson shown outward antagonism toward Jews and Judaism in his public statements and actions, but his previous attempt to bring biblical history to life on the screen was marred by anti-Semitism. Rather than listen to respected religious leaders, 온라인카지노 both Christian and Jewish,...
