Especially with so few Westerns being made now, it’s little surprise that a new one would hold great appeal for Sam Elliott. However, there was an extra lure for the “A Star Is Born” Oscar nominee: the writing of Taylor Sheridan, the co-creator of the successful series “Yellowstone,” which now is yielding a Paramount+ prequel with the Elliott-starring “1883.” Premiering Sunday, Dec. 19, the drama casts him as a late-19th-century cowboy who guides settlers from Texas to Montana. Among them, played by music-superstar spouses Faith Hill and Tim McGraw, are ancestors of John Dutton .... Kevin Costner’s “Yellowstone” character. (The premiere will be simulcast on Paramount Network.) “We started at the end of August in 100-plus-degree weather in Texas,” the friendly, famously deep-voiced Elliott says of the filming. It took him away from his actress wife Katharine Ross (both appeared in “Butch

Cassidy and the Sundance Kid”), and he reports, “It was grueling for everyone. It meant wearing wool, so it was tough. And we’ve headed since to Montana, where we’re likely to get snowed on.” Elliott notes his “1883” character, Shea Brennan, is “carrying a heavy load” from his family history and serving in the Civil War. The actor appreciates that “Taylor writes these arias that are gifts. It’s not just the words (Brennan) says but where they come from, and it’s great playing someone who has more going on than meets the eye.” Before “1883” started production, Elliott hadn’t met Hill and McGraw. “They went to a ‘cowboy camp,’ because a lot of people hadn’t ridden horses when we started this thing – and when I got to Texas and joined them, everyone was in the mood. I hadn’t ridden a horse in 20 years, and I was very leery about it, but it’s like riding a bicycle. You never forget how, but with that said, you’ve got to get back in condition and be confident.” Once a star of such shows as “Mission: Impossible” and “The Yellow Rose,” Elliott has been involved in streaming series such as “The Ranch” and “Grace and Frankie” more recently, but those didn’t entail the work demands “1883” does. Still, he maintains, “I’m up to it. It’s been a while since I’ve done something like this, but based on the fact that it was Taylor Sheridan, there was no passing on it.” Elliott admits he hasn’t been a viewer of “Yellowstone,” but he notes that where “1883” is concerned, “I’ve had great fortune in that genre from the beginning. I’ve always felt a good Western has three classic elements: man against man, man against nature, and man against himself. And here it is again, particularly man against himself, in this character.”

BY GEORGE DICKIE
Melo thriving in supporting role for Lakers On Christmas Day, Dec. 25, NBA fans will find the gift of basketball under their tree – about 13 hours of it, in fact, in games televised nationally. Probably the centerpiece match-up of the annual holiday quintupleheader comes in prime time on ESPN, when one of the West’s better teams, the Los Angeles Lakers, defend the home court of the just-renamed Crypto.com Arena from the No. 1 team in the East, the Brooklyn Nets. And under the Lakers’ tree has been one of the more pleasant surprises of the 2021-22 season – the resurgence of Carmelo Anthony, albeit in a limited role. Through the season’s first two months, the 10-time All-Star and 2013 scoring champ has been deadly from three-point range, hitting on about 44 percent of his shots from beyond the arc. Of course, that’s a pace that’s hard to maintain but the fact that at age 37 he’s still doing it is remarkable in itself. This, after all, was a man who was essentially out of the game in 2018 after refusing to accept that he was no longer the go-to guy. As a former star and an almost-certain Hall-of-Famer, agreeing to a reduced role is a hard pill to swallow. But the fact that he’s done it not only has gained him the further respect of teammates and opponents, but also the gratitude of the Laker faithful. On a star-studded Lakers roster, Anthony fits in well as an uber-valuable sixth man, able to rebound and score proficiently. And his 19 years of NBA experience will certainly serve him and his team as they drive for a playoff berth. FULL NAME: Carmelo Kyam Anthony BIRTH DATE: May 29, 1984

The 89th Annual Hollywood Christmas Parade 8 p.m. on CW 22
Sleigh rides and snowball fights are rarely a part of Christmas time in Southern California, but that doesn’t mean Tinseltown is lacking when it comes to the “most wonderful time of the year.” Erik Estrada, Laura McKenzie, Dean Cain and Montel Williams join co-host Elizabeth Stanton for this two-hour coverage of this annual Hollywood event.

Our “Build A Better Tomorrow For You, Motto: Your Family And Your Business”
This female-driven crime dramedy launches its fourth and final season Sunday, Dec. 19, with a two-hour premiere, but TNT is giving fans a one-hour “sneak peek” at the new season tonight. For those who understandably need a refresher, given that the Season 3 finale aired more than two years ago, the casino that main character Desna Simms (Niecy Nash) and her friends were managing went up in flames via an act of revenge by Quiet Ann (Judy Reyes).

What’s Available NOW On
“Puff: Wonders of the Reef ”
Cameras take viewers into a coral reef in Australia’s Great Barrier Reef to follow a baby puffer fish, less than a size of a human fingernail, on its extraordinary journey through its first year of life in this documentary from Australian filmmaker Nick Robinson (“Life on the Reef ”). Fellow Aussie Rose Byrne narrates. (ORIGINAL)
“Movie: Grumpy Christmas”
It will be a contentious Christmas for Don Servando (Hector Bonilla), aka Grumpy Grandpa from the 2016 Mexican film comedy “The Patriarch,” as he joins his son, daughter-in-law and extended family for a holiday at the beach, visiting an aunt whose demanding nature raises his blood pressure. Angélica María, Renata Notni, Jacqueline Bracamontes and Tina Romero also star in this film comedy. (ORIGINAL)
“Emily in Paris”
Season 2 of this romantic comedy finds Emily (Lily Collins) getting better at navigating the city but still struggling with the idiosyncrasies of French life — including in her own building, where she’s stumbled into a love triangle with her neighbor. At work, she’s more focused but that’s also getting more complicated. Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu, Ashley Park and Camille Razat are other cast returnees. (ORIGINAL)
“Movie: Don’t Look Up”
When they discover a comet on a collision course with Earth, an astronomy grad student (Jennifer Lawrence) and her professor embark on a media blitz to warn mankind of impending peril in this sci-fi dramedy from director Adam McKay (the “Anchorman” movies). Timothee Chalamet, Meryl Streep, Cate Blanchett and Tyler Perry are also in the impressive cast. (ORIGINAL)

“White Christmas”
It’s a ‘White Christmas’ again as holiday favorite returns The title alone would make “White Christmas” a seasonal favorite for many viewers. The Irving Berlin-fueled 1954 musical – which AMC shows Thursday, Dec. 23, and Friday, Dec. 24 – also has quite a bit more going for it, though, and that’s kept it a popular end-of-year attraction for the better part of seven decades. It also has a place in screen history (indicated by the opening seconds of the picture) as the first film released in VistaVision, the widescreen process Paramount Pictures used to try to keep luring audiences to theaters ... and away from a then-newfangled rival called television. Directed by Michael Curtiz (“Casablanca,” Yankee Doodle Dandy“), ”White Christmas“ repurposes elements of 1942’s ”Holiday Inn.“ The plan had been to reunite that film’s Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire, but Astaire opted out; Donald O’Connor was enlisted to replace him but fell ill, and the job ultimately went to Danny Kaye, who got quite a payday from his deal. Crosby and Kaye play tunefully inclined World War II comrades Bob and Phil, with the latter saving the former’s life at the battlefront ... then requesting that they become showbiz partners when they return stateside. That happens, and they’re quite the popular act, eventually using their fame and connections to help their former commander (Dean Jagger) save his Vermont inn that has fallen on hard times. Romance also has a big place in “White Christmas,” thanks to two sisters who also are entertainers. Played by Rosemary Clooney and Vera-Ellen, they’re devoted to each other (witness their lyric “Lord help the mister who comes between me and my sister”), but that doesn’t mean each woman can’t have her heartstrings pulled by the right fellow. And in their cases, Bob and Phil are those fellows.
