Everybody loves Raymond
His filmography consists of "Welcome to Mooseport," for which he personally apologized to those few folks who shelled out their hard-earned cash at the multiplex, a comedy with Kevin James called "Grilled" that was delayed multiple times and finally released as a direct-to-DVD, and the critically pounded just-launched poker flick, "The Grand."
No wonder Ray Romano is headed back to TV, in a TNT dramedy he co-created about fortysomething men in various stages of mid-life crisis. Yuck it up!
In fairness, Romano wouldn't have to return to the boob tube. He has had a major starring turn as the voice of the woolly mammoth in "Ice Age," no doubt contributing to the gargantuan bottom line (more than $1 billion in worldwide boxoffice for the original and its sequel; a third is coming, natch). But TV he loves, and TV loves him (he's a multiple Emmy winner).
Welcome back, we say.
Mmmmm, chocolate Oscar. Not every star will walk away from the 81st annual Academy Awards with a trophy, but if they hit the high-profile Governor's Ball they can have pastry chef Sherry Yard's gold-dusted candy version. Also on the menu from celeb chef Wolfgang Puck is tuna tartare in sesame miso cones, chopped Chino Farms vegetable salad with ginger soy vinaigrette, Maine lobster and caviar. Serve it up!
