BY GEORGE DICKIE
Young hopes to bring Heisman home to Alabama For a football program that has produced legendary quarterbacks such as Joe Namath, Bart Starr and Ken Stabler, the Alabama Crimson Tide surprisingly enough has not had one win a Heisman Trophy. But that could change with Bryce Young. At this writing, the 20-year-old sophomore from Southern California was the odds-on favorite to take home college football’s most prestigious honor. As of late October, the first-year starter was among the nation’s leading passers, completing 187 of 267 passes (a 70 percent rate) for 2,453 yards (sixth in the nation) and 26 touchdowns (third) against only three interceptions in eight games for a QB rating of 88.5. The performances for such an inexperienced field general have been impressive. Probably his best came in Week 4 against Southern Mississippi, when he threw for 313 yards and five touchdowns on 20-of-22 passing in the Tide’s 63-14 romp. Then there was his Week 8 effort against Tennessee, when he completed 31-of-43 passes for 371 yards and two touchdowns and ran for another two scores in ‘Bama’s 52-24 blowout of their SEC rival. Young had big shoes to fill when he replaced last year’s starter Mac Jones (who himself is now thriving as a first-year starter for the New England Patriots). If he can take home a Heisman in his first year under center, the name Bryce Young will go down as one of the greats among Alabama quarterbacks. The 87th Heisman Trophy presentation takes place in prime time on Saturday, Dec. 11, and airs on ESPN. FULL NAME: Bryce Christopher Young

‘Welcome to Earth’ spotlights the subtle awesomeness of nature on Disney+
BY GEORGE DICKIE
It may have the title “Welcome to Earth,” but the new Disney+ documentary series might well be subtitled, “Phenomena in Nature You Never Considered.” Because it’s that eye-opening. Premiering Wednesday, Dec. 8, on the streaming service, the series from National Geographic follows host Will Smith as he embarks on an awe-inspiring journey to reveal the secrets behind some of the most extraordinary and unexplained events in nature. So in the six episodes, viewers will learn how swarms of hundreds of thousands of birds or honeybees can move as a single unit without any apparent communication; how smell, the most powerful of the senses, leads sea turtles back to an island in the South Pacific to lay eggs; and how deserts move slowly beyond human perception. Smith, who had previously worked on the NatGeo series “One Strange Rock,” acts as the eyes and the ears of the viewer here, taking in the action as it unfolds before him and speaking wide-eyed in narration and to the camera. “He doesn’t pretend to be a scientist or a volcanologist or an expert in anything,” explains Jane Root, an executive producer of the series for her production company Nutopia. “(His attitude is,) ‘I’m the person who’s there seeing what you can see about the planet.’ And the thing he also
Will Smith hosts “Welcome to Earth,” premiering Wednesday on Disney+.
talks about (is) what you can see about the planet on the other side of fear. He says his grandmother always said to him that the best things in life are (discovered) once you get through being scared of them.” Fear certainly played a role in the opening episode “The Silent Roar,” in which Smith, explorer Erik Weihenmayer and the crew went to Tanna Island in the South Pacific near Vanuatu to film and listen to the active volcano of Mount Yasur rumble. But the group actually got more than they expected when it erupted, spewing forth lava and boulders. Needless to say, it was one of those life experiences that all who witnessed it will never forget. “Some of the boulders were the size of, you know, small cars and they’re kind of just exploding out of the ground,” Root says. “And you see Will joking about it, like ‘I’m wearing this helmet but that’s not really going to help, is it?’ “We had probably at the top of that volcano like 12 different safety people and every safety precaution we could take but this is still really challenging stuff to film,” she continues. “You know, there’s still a sense of, ‘Wow! Am I actually here while this is going on? That’s incredible.’ And the noise and the intensity of it, I think that’s why we put that episode first because it’s one of those moments where we just appreciate the awesomeness of it.”
in focus “Being the Ricardos” (Amazon — movie premiere, Dec. 21) Aaron Sorkin (“The West Wing”) wrote and created this original biographical drama that gives a revealing look at the romantic life and professional relationship of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz (Nicole Kidman, Javier Bardem) during one critical production week of their groundbreaking sitcom “I Love Lucy.” J.K. Simmons and Nina Arianda play William Frawley and Vivian Vance.

Jana Kramer
OF ‘THE HOLIDAY FIX UP’ ON LIFETIME
Your character in “The Holiday Fix Up” is a do-it-yourself personality who uses social media extensively in her job. You have a strong online presence yourself, so did you always intend to build that into your role?
My whole entire life is social media, so that was kind of fun to do that. But also, I think we showed how it can bring people together. For me personally, what I took away from the movie the most is actually about putting the phone down ... back in the day when we didn’t have cell phones, and we were able to just disconnect and be in a room together and not be glued to Instagram or the phone. 10
That’s what I took away from it the most, having that distraction away to really just be present with the people in front of me. That’s something that I would like to lean more into.
was going to always have a fan. I mean, that man sweats so much ... .
Maria Menounos also appears in “The Holiday Fix Up.” She’s known principally as a host and You’ve made a number of holiday interviewer, so what did you see movies out of season, but how in her for her to act in this? was it to film this one?
We had a few hot days, but the days that we were outside, I felt like we were blessed with not-too-hot ones. I think there was only one day when I was like, “I think I might pass out.” But it didn’t matter if it was sunny or not, Ryan (McPartlin, Kramer’s leading man and fellow executive producer)
News Tribune
I was like, “Oh, that’s going to be easy to play best friends with her,” because every time I see her, I feel like she’s such a close friend. And then with Ryan, it’s like we had that brother-sister, fun banter. It’s that good energy, so that part was really easy, to have the chemistry. We were all teammates together. December 5 - 11, 2021

After Micki (Lindsey Morgan) comes clean to Trey (Jeff Pierre) about her past, the couple question what that revelation means in terms of their future in the new episode “Douglas Fir.” As Micki considers whether she just needs to start a new chapter in her life, Walker and Liam (Jared Padalecki, Keegan Allen) set their differences aside after Denise (guest star Amara Zaragoza) asks them to investigate a case. Meanwhile, their dad, Bonham (Mitch Pileggi), plays Santa at an annual Christmas party.
John Maggio’s music documentary “Mr. Saturday Night” chronicles the meteoric career ascent of Australian entrepreneur Robert Stigwood, who was so inspired by a magazine article on the Brooklyn night club scene that he made a movie about it. That movie, “Saturday Night Fever,” became nothing less than a cultural touchstone for 1977, turning actor John Travolta into a global superstar in the process. The platinum-selling soundtrack also gave a shot of adrenaline to disco, thanks to four number-one hits from the Bee Gees.
As the holidays approach, Sawyer (Amanda Payton) is so depressed to find herself with no romantic prospects that she makes a fake online wedding registry, hoping that a vigorous session of retail therapy — preferably with a scan gun — will boost her spirits. Unfortunately, her make-believe registry soon attracts notice, followed by well-wishers who start planning a big bridal shower for her. Mortified by the attention and unable to come clean, Sawyer finds a fake fiancé to help conceal her secret. Marie Osmond and Adam Gregory also star.

7 p.m. on LIFE Movie: The Holiday Fix Up
During Diwali celebrations, an ambitious young financial executive finds herself unceremoniously dumped by her cheating fiancé, but her free-spirited BFF loses no time making sure this shock doesn’t put a damper on the festivities. Assembling their social crew, they set out on a wild holiday adventure all across Chicago. When their revelry inadvertently puts them in possession of a precious diamond, however, they’re in serious danger. Surina Jindal, Melanie Chandra, Kal Penn Tituss Burgess, Chris Parnell, Punam Patel and Nik Dodani star in the large ensemble.
It’s holiday season on Hallmark Channel, which means, among other things, that you can’t swing a Christmas cat without hitting a prince mingling with commoners, often incognito for whatever reason. In this 2021 yuletide romance, one such handsome young royal (Julian Morris, “New Girl”) finds himself in the New York borough of Queens, where his aforementioned mingling is interrupted by a local woman (Megan Park, “The Moodys”), who enlists his help with a children’s Christmas show. Glad tidings of comfort and joy ensue.
Sam, the fan-favorite designer on a hit home renovation show, returns to her hometown during the holidays to help renovate an historic local inn. There’s just one problem: Coop, the lead contractor assigned to work with her, is an old flame who broke her heart years ago — and although Sam doesn’t know it, he still has some complicated feelings about her, too. Jana Kramer, Ryan McPartlin and Maria Menounos star in this 2021 holiday romance.
