Paramedics Up Next In Trial Of Jacksons Doctor

LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Paramedics who responded to Michael Jacksons mansion the day he died were expected to testify Friday in the trial of the pop stars doctor who has been charged with involuntary manslaughter. Martin Blount and Richard Senneff had previously testified at a preliminary hearing that Dr. Conrad Murray never mentioned giving Jackson the powerful anesthetic propofol and told them the singer lost consciousness moments before an ambulance was called. Both men believed the singer had died by the time they arrived in June 2009, but Murray insisted the performer be taken to a hospital for more resuscitation efforts. The prosecution witnesses will likely provide jurors more insight into Jacksons final moments as futile attempts were made to revive the unresponsive superstar as the trial enters its fourth day. On Thursday, a pair of Jackson staffers described the chaotic scene at the rented mansion. Personal chef Kai Chase said she was preparing a spinach Cobb salad for Jackson when a panicked and flustered Murray came down a spiral staircase shouting for her to get security and the singers son, Prince. His energy was very nervous and frantic, said Chase, who added she ran to get Jacksons son in a nearby room. I said, Hurry, Dr. Murray needs you. Something may be wrong with your father. Chase said later she saw paramedics and security running upstairs to Jacksons bedroom where he lay and some of the house staff were crying, unsure of what was happening. The children were crying and screaming, she said. We started hugging. We came together, held hands and we began to pray. Bodyguard Alberto Alvarez said he went to help Jackson after the singers assistant called him on his cellphone. Shocked at seeing Jackson lying motionless in his bed, eyes slightly open, Alvarez barely had time to react when he heard the singers daughter scream Daddy! from the doorway. He led her and Prince from the room, trying to comfort them. Alvarez then said Murray told him to put vials of medicine he scooped from Jacksons nightstand into a bag. Alvarez complied and also placed an IV bag into another bag. Alvarezs testimony was key for prosecutors who contend Murray, who has pleaded not guilty, was intent on concealing signs that he had been giving the singer doses of propofol as a sleep aid. Alvarez said he thought Murray might be preparing to take the items to the hospital, but the bags never made it to the hospital and the bodyguard never questioned the doctor. If convicted, Murray, 58, could face up to four years in prison and lose his medical license. Defense attorney Ed Chernoff asked whether there was enough time for Alvarez to shield Jacksons children, survey the room and stow away the drugs in the brief period that phone records show he was in the home before calling emergency responders. The bodyguard insisted there was, telling the attorney, Im very efficient, sir. Chernoff was not convinced, questioning whether 30 seconds was enough time for the dramatic sequence to play out. Alvarez assured him there was. The defense attorney also challenged Alvarezs recollection, asking whether the collection of the vials happened after paramedics had come and whisked Jackson to a nearby hospital. Alvarez denied it happened after he called 911. Chernoff questioned why Alvarez didnt tell authorities about Murrays commands to bag up the medication immediately after Jackson died, but instead waited until two months after the singers death. The bodyguard said he didnt realize its significance until seeing a news report in late June in which he recognized one of the bags detectives were carrying out of Jacksons mansion. The burly Alvarez became emotional as the 911 call was played for jurors. Jacksons mother, Katherine, appeared distraught and her son, Randy, huddled next to her and put his arm around her. Was that difficult to hear? prosecutor David Walgren asked. It is, Alvarez replied. Alvarezs testimony allowed Walgren to present jurors directly with a bottle of propofol that theyve heard much about throughout the previous two days of the trial. Jurors intently looked at the bottle, which appeared to still contain some liquid. Walgren asked whether anything good had happened to Alvarez as a result of his experience in Jacksons bedroom. No sir, Alvarez responded. Media outlets reportedly offered him up to $500,000 for interviews, but Alvarez said he always refused. Its caused a lot of financial problems, he said, starting to choke up. I went from a great salary to hardly anything. ___ AP Entertainment Writer Anthony McCartney contributed to this report Copyright 2011 by Associated Press.

Greg Gayne/FOX "New Girl" Fox may have found its newest hit. Zooey Deschanel's quirky half-hour comedy New Girl, debuting after the season premiere of Glee, delivered at 9 p.m. -- outperforming its lead-in in both total viewers and the adults 18-49 demographic.

Roush Review: The 2011 Emmys

Jane Lynch If possibly we didn't have to view an Emmy show to know the Emmy individuals who win.This Years labor of laboriousness, situated by a game title title but ultimately defeated Jane Lynch (revealing that even this versatile talent couldn't exceed such mediocre material), was fortunately enlivened with a couple of surprise and/or very deserving wins, specially when the drama groups began in.Want more Matt Roush? Subscribe to TV Guide Magazine now!Margo Martindale, the glorious character actress who needed FX's Justified to new levels within the second year? Yes! Loved her euphoric acceptance speech: "Sometimes things take a while, though time comes great appreciation."Speaking about which: Kyle Chandler, ultimately people years of Friday Evening Lights being overlooked, finally winning inside the final lap? And Jason Katims winning for writing the FNL finale? Double yes! (Why managed to get happen proceed and take show moving to DirecTV to acquire observed similar to this? Just wondering.)For your record, I had been rooting for Mad Men's Jon Hamm to finally win an Emmy, too for Matthew Weiner's instant-classic "The Suitcase" episode of Mad Males to win for writing. But Mad Males usually takes peace of mind in winning, by divine intention, its fourth consecutive Best Drama trophy, along with the jaded Hollywood audience made an appearance elated by FNL's come-from-behind victories. So like the actual show, no?How satisfying to find out such a range of great dramas get recognized through the Emmys this year: Justified, FNL, Mad Males, Boardwalk Empire (for Martin Scorsese's direction in the pilot), Wager on Thrones (for Peter Dinklage's impish scene-stealing), The Truly Amazing Wife (Julianna Margulies fixing her loss from a year ago). No complaints using this corner. Ditto for PBS' splendid Downton Abbey ruling inside the movie-minis segment, trumping HBO's bloated Mildred Pierce (which did earn honors for stars Kate Winslet and Guy Pearce).Despite the fact that things were much more expected round the comedy side, getting a sweep by ABC's Modern Family in every single category it absolutely was qualified in - lead stars could escape, because the entire Family cast submits itself inside the supporting area - the night's most endearing and lengthy lasting moment happened through the reading through through in the lead comedy actress category. Since the nominees were introduced, first Amy Poehler leaped to the level, then Melissa McCarthy, then all of the others in the apparently instantly and marvelous celebration, holding hands as being a nervous promenade-full court before surprise champion - Mike & Molly's McCarthy (that Bridesmaids exposure probably didn't hurt) - was declared, together with a tiara and spray of roses were presented with the Emmy. "It's my first and greatest pageant ever!" she memorably gushed. I jeered delightedly through this complete bit - which apparently was Poehler's inspiration, which alone should earn her a distinctive Emmy.Regarding all the wins for Modern Family, TV's finest and many warm comedy inside a very long time, how suitable for the brilliant Ty Burrell as well as the underrated Julie Bowen, who play couple Phil and Claire Dunphy, to both be honored. They're quite they, part of an incredible ensemble, and hopefully when it is all controlled over, all might have had their moment the primary attraction. Burrell's sweet and funny speech in recognition of his late father was the most effective from the evening.And although my recognition from the Large Bang Theory's Jim Parsons isn't-ending, his second straight win, this time around around in the fee for that Office's Steve Carell (who walks from that role empty-handed), felt under satisfying. Still, his and McCarthy's Emmys represent a triumph for your old-fashioned of multi-camera, studio-audience laugh-out-noisy sitcom production, this type of very long time from favor in prime time."That is so odd for a number of reasons," Parsons mentioned, rather adorably. He wasn't just speaking in regards to the surprise win, but about accepting the award from (of individuals) Charlie Sheen, whose mea culpa gesture of goodwill toward the completely new season of two and a half Males (produced by Large Bang's Chuck Lorre) rang so hollow - could it happen to be supposed to have been contrite, or ironic? - it absolutely was easily the night's most awkward moment.Much less there wasn't plenty clumsiness for everybody. Like all time the chirpy "EmmyTones" troupe (the worst idea since the year the reality hosts situated the show) take their hands as much as sing an intro to a different montage. This kind of cheesy waste of talent like Joel McHale, Zachary Levi and Cobie Smulders. Or whenever the voice-over announcer tried to vamp with lame jokes within a winner's walk for the podium, compelling virtual vomiting within the appalled Twitter-verse. The presenter banter was typically awful, as well as the musical amounts depressingly banal - or annoying, inside the situation in the Lonely Planet segment, trying to pressure some scattershot SNL anarchy round the proceedings. (Granted, Michael Bolton as Jack Sparrow is certainly funny, and "Freak Bill Macy" will be a moment to relish.)Really the only sustained comedy segment that actually labored was the mockumentary mash-up salute to operate, with Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul delivering meth to Creed, Nathan Fillion griping, "All the black males Sometimes with call me White-colored Castle," Cee Lo Eco-friendly in the spinning-out-of-control Voice chair, a game title title of Thrones Dothraki warrior growling, "Personally, i can't stand how nobody ever rinses the equine heart bowl," and Ashton Kutcher realizing he's round the wrong set: "I am wondering where the half-guy was."Lynch wound up moving away from one or more good joke: "So many people are curious why I'm a lesbian. ... In addition to gentlemen, the cast of Entourage."Score one on her behalf. But watching the Entourage cast proceed and take stage, people from the faded now defunct series showing honours to (of other dietary meals) Downton Abbey, only decided to be another symbol of how tone-hard of hearing this years Emmys frequently were. Fortunately, this years voters were a little more on your golf ball.Indication as much as TV Guide Magazine now!

I Don't Know How She Does It

A Weinstein Co. release and production. Produced by Donna Gigliotti. Executive producers, Bob Weinstein, Harvey Weinstein, Aline Brosh McKenna, Scott Ferguson. Co-producer, Allison Pearson. Directed by Douglas McGrath. Screenplay, Aline Brosh McKenna, from the novel by Allison Pearson.Kate Reddy - Sarah Jessica Parker Jack Abelhammer - Pierce Brosnan Richard Reddy - Greg Kinnear Allison Henderson - Christina Hendricks Clark Cooper - Kelsey Grammer Chris Bunce - Seth Meyers Momo Hahn - Olivia Munn Maria Reddy - Jane Curtin In "I Don't Know How She Does It," a husband affectionately describes his dynamo wife as a "juggler," paying homage, like everyone else in the film, to her expert balancing act of marriage, motherhood and career. Sarah Jessica Parker's myriad fans will doubtless appreciate her frazzled warmth in a part she energetically inhabits, but the pic at times feels out of step with contemporary reality and humorless in its adaptation of a comic bestseller. Thesp's charm (and wardrobe) may not be enough to wow targeted femme auds and signal a runaway hit upon the Weinstein Co. release's Sept. 16 bow. Kate Reddy (Parker) has attained equilibrium in her day-to-day routine, cheerfully taking on all challenges as she tries not to short-change her out-of-work architect spouse, Richard (Greg Kinnear), their two young kids or her ultra-demanding high-finance job at which, of course, she excels, aided by her ruthlessly efficient secretary, Momo (Olivia Munn). But, starting around the time of a fateful school bake sale, two simultaneous blessings threaten to upset her apple cart: Her boss (Kelsey Grammer) chooses her to head an important project, working closely with Gotham mover-and-shaker Jack Abelhammer (Pierce Brosnan), at the same point that her husband lands a major assignment. If Kate's emotional responsiveness often registers as a liability in her Boston office, it blooms freely elsewhere. She shares a teasing, sometimes frustrating relationship with her husband, who still excites her, but while her spirit is willing, her jet-lagged flesh often falls asleep. And her attentiveness to everyone who needs her, coupled with her highly proficient business acumen, immediately attracts Brosnan's Jack, secure enough in his masculinity and professional position to be charmed rather than exasperated by her scattered loyalties. Director Douglas McGrath and scripter Aline Brosh McKenna fare best in scenes in which Kate's domestic travails intrude on the pressure-packed boardroom, as when Jack is visibly amused by Kate's worries over stress-induced eczema and the accidental inclusion of a sonogram in her PowerPoint presentation. Brosnan is as charmingly sexy as one would expect in the characters' intimate tete-a-tetes, which eventually turn to romance. But McKenna, who penned the hugely successful adaptation of "The Devil Wears Prada," largely falters in her scripting of Allison Pearson's 2002 novel. While magnificent villains like Meryl Streep's Miranda Priestley admittedly come along rarely, the bad guys here read as particularly lame and dismally unfunny. Kate's domestic nemeses are a pair of hypercritical stay-at-home moms, dubbed "Momsters," one of whom (a shrill, beefy Busy Phillips) regularly pops by to diss Kate's housekeeping skills. And Kate's workplace adversary ("SNL's" Seth Meyers) affords little pleasure in his backstabbing chauvinist role. While there's no dearth of films about the tribulations of working moms, "I Don't Know How She Does It" inexplicably seems to assume that it's the first. Characters like Kate's lawyer pal Allison (Christina Hendricks), inserted in faux-interview segments, complain directly to the camera about the inequality of the sexes in the workplace as if the topic were newly minted. Parker's mother (Jane Curtin) expounds on how much simpler it was in her day when each gender knew its place, as if "her day" were not the militant feminist '70s. Indeed, all the secondary characters in the film suffer from a lack of impact, personality or even specificity. Furthermore, with the exception of a bowling scene designed to give the investment-banker characters some blue-collar cred, the script never acknowledges the economic meltdown or the role of investment bankers therein. The oversight resonates to a surprising extent, so much so that the unwise insertion of a clip from Howard Hawks' "His Girl Friday," with Rosalind Russell's Hildy Johnson fretting over home-vs.-office priorities, appears less dated than this blithely complacent picture. Solid tech credits excellently support the pic's built-in contrasts.Camera (color), Start Dryburgh; editors, Camilla Toniolo, Kevin Tent; music, Aaron Zigman; music supervisor, Dana Sano; production designer, Santo Loquasto; art director, Dog Duszti; costume designer, Renee Ehrlich Kalfus; sound (Dolby Digital), William Sarokin; supervising sound editors, Myron Nettinga, Gregg Baxter; re-recording mixers, Patrick Cyccone, Nettinga; casting, Douglas Aibel.

Bucky Larson: Born to become a Star

A The new sony Pictures Entertainment discharge of a Columbia Pictures presentation of the Happy Madison production. Created by Adam Sandler, Jack Giarraputo, Allen Covert, Nick Swardson, David Dorfman. Co-producer, Betsy Danbury. Directed by Tom Brady. Script, Adam Sandler, Nick Swardson, Allen Covert.With: Nick Swardson, Christina Ricci, Don Manley, Stephen Dorff, Kevin Nealon, Edward Herrmann, Miriam Flynn, Ido Mosseri, Mario Joyner, Pauly Shoreline, Nick Turturro, Jimmy Fallon.Adam Sandler's Happy Madison production shingle frequently alternates between your star's own, bigger-allocated automobiles and decidedly downmarket photos featuring his pals. The second category reaches a nearly impossibly low nadir using the Nick Swardson-starring porn-industry comedy "Bucky Larson: Born to become a Star," probably the most astonishingly unfunny films of the or other year. Knowing in the pic's dismal opening-day amounts (it wasn't tested for experts), this might be among individuals rare cases where the public decides you will find certain motion picture troughs that it really won't descend. Apart from its failures about the technical, narrative and humanitarian levels, "Bucky Larson" is applicable a brain-dead kidpic attitude to hard-R subject material. For any film centered entirely round the sex trade, the pic is afraid of anything resembling actual human sexuality, and hardly features any nudity. (Pity poor people 12-year-olds who bother theater-hopping into that one.) Several dozen euphemisms for sexual intercourse and genital area are heard throughout, and couple of were likely formerly uttered outdoors a grade-school playground. Directed by Tom Brady and scripted by Sandler, Swardson and Allen Covert, the pic begins in rural Iowa, a reduced, simpler place where families gather for nightly Yahtzee matches and old males delicately smear peanut butter on the male organs for roaming goat's to lick off. Bucky (Swardson), a creepily virginal guy-child having a pageboy haircut and sticking out prosthetic beaver teeth, still lives here happily together with his parents (Miriam Flynn, Edward Herrmann) until finding within the worst way possible that they an abundant past as fringe '70s porn stars. In some way untraumatized with this experience, he decides it's his future to follow along with in the household business. Hopping on the Greyhound to L.A., he grouped into the good graces of the golden-hearted diner waitress (Christina Ricci), who sets him track of a psychotic roommate (Kevin Nealon) and, against all fundamental biological instincts, becomes his girlfriend. Bucky's stud aspirations appear condemned through the little few his microscopic endowment and inclination to strongly ejaculate in reaction to something more titillating than the usual slight breeze, but a lower-on-his-luck porn director (Don Manley) sees potential inside a artist who'll make male audiences feel well informed regarding their own capabilities in comparison. Through all of this, one feels anything strongly than a severe sympathy for those involved -- particularly Ricci, who gives her role a lot more than it warrants, and Herrmann, an elegant character actor who once won a Tony. Swardson is a dutiful team player in Sandler's bullpen for a long time, but appears unlikely to get out of supporting status with this particular as his first starring role. Stephen Dorff is alone in generally seeming to enjoy his part like a preening rival woodman, but that is not saying that he's ever really funny. Production values are evenly hideous, but they are minimal from the film's problems.Camera (color, Luxurious prints), Michael Barrett editor, Jason Gourson music, Waddy Wachtel production designer, Dina Lipton costume designer, Mary Jane Fort art director, Marc Dabe set decorator, Hadina Siwolop effects supervisor, Denis Dion seem (Dolby Digital, SDDS, DTS), Willie Burton supervisory seem editors, Frank Gaeta, Elmo Weber re-recording mixer, Weber casting, Lisa London, Catherine Stroud.
