Floating on Air
Finally able to enjoy the Emmys in person, nominees, presenters, and winners shared their joy in Robert Ascroft's emmy magazine set.
Whether he won or not, Conan O'Brien was determined to have a good time at this year's Emmy awards.
The 73rd Emmy Awards primetime show had glamor, glitz, and a lot of fun.
In the wake of 9/11, the U.S. faced another unexpected terror — this one, delivered by the mail. Now, in a new season of Nat Geo’s The Hot Zone, Daniel Dae Kim delivers as the dogged FBI agent on the trail of the anthrax killer.
Sure, lots of young stars say they want to direct — like Opie of The Andy Griffith Show, who grew into Ron Howard . But there’s much more to it than climbing into the big chair. Re-meet four former child actors who now call the shots.

The seaplane is back in service. In the Fox reboot of Fantasy Island, its female showrunners make a gender switch — Roselyn Sanchez stars as Ms. Roarke — while enhancing the show’s Latin lineage with a Puerto Rican locale. But hope is still the big draw, as the island’s visitors seek new lives and viewers come for comfort.

As one of Hollywood’s original scream queens, Jamie Lee Curtis was perhaps destined to join forces with horror honcho Jason Blum. But for Curtis, it was the Blum’s character, not his credits, that sealed the deal.

He also didn’t settle on just one job, though for Novak, writing is everything. “When I act, I feel like I’m writing a character,” he says. “When I direct, I feel like I’m writing the aesthetics of the scene. That’s how I see the world.”
