BY GEORGE DICKIE

For all his speed and flash, Dee Gordon is still learning. Still learning the position of second base, to which he was moved at the start of this season. Still learning to hit the ball on the ground to take advantage of his speed at the top of the Los Angeles Dodgers lineup. Still learning to steal bases. The lessons, given his production in the first two months of the season, appear to be well-learned. The 26year-old Florida native and son of former MLB reliever Tom “Flash” Gordon leads the majors with 30 steals in 33 attempts, 12 more than anyone else. Credit Dodgers coach Davey Lopes (who swiped 557 bases during his career) with his success in that department. As a hitter, Gordon has progressed from averages of .234 and .228 in 2012 and 2013 to .283 so far in 2014, and his on-base percentages have likewise trended upward, from .280 to .314 to this season’s .332. A born listener, Gordon has embraced the advice of hitting coach Mark McGwire. In the field, the converted shortstop has made five errors in 128 changes (a .978 fielding percentage) and has exhibited great range and fearlessness in the pivot. Not bad for a guy who began playing the position less than a year ago. So imagine what he might do when he’s done learning.

Gregory Smith stars in “Rookie Blue,” returning for its fifth season Thursday on ABC.

Sam’s in surgery, Andy’s in agony It’s actually been nine months, but in the world of “Rookie Blue,” it’s only been a very short time since Detective Sam Swarek (Ben Bass) was shot. His ex-flame, Officer Andy McNally (Missy Peregrym), watches him being wheeled into surgery as Season 5 of the Canadian-made ABC police drama opens Thursday, June 19. Dov Epstein (Gregory Smith) is at the hospital, too, hoping to see his girlfriend and fellow officer Chloe Price (Priscilla Faia) – as is her estranged husband, Wesley Cole (Cle Bennett) – as she recovers from also being severely wounded on the job. Andy and Dov head for a nearby diner to grab a quick bite. Within moments, though, they end up among the hostages of a couple bent on robbing the place ... and the new adventures of the cops of 15 Division are off and running. “I’ve never tried before to pick up exactly where we left off,” co-creator and executive producer Tassie Cameron says. “We normally jump ahead three months or six months, so that we start in a bit of a fresh way and the audience has to play catch-up. This was more challenging because we’re picking up moments after the finale of Season 4 and trying to remind everybody where you’re at. And you’re starting in this very intense, emotional place. “We decided that if we were viewers of the show, if we skipped ahead even a week or a month, we’d be so frustrated not to have seen when Sam woke up and had his first moment with Andy,” adds Cameron. “It was important to us to spend that time, even if it meant the episode had a slightly different structure.” Peregrym appreciates having that moment on camera, as well as Andy’s first encounter with latest beau Nick Collins (Peter Mooney) after he watched her run to Sam’s side. “To have a year off, then come back and put ourselves back where we were emotionally, was so strange,” the actress notes. “Every day, there was crying and heavy stuff, but I think it’s a really good first episode.” The season premiere also introduces new characters: Inspector John Jarvis (Oliver Becker), a no-nonsense superior destined to shake things up at the precinct; and Sarah Swarek (Robin Brule), Sam’s long-estranged sister. The following week adds Duncan Moore (Matt Murray), a trouble-prone rookie with the nickname “Selfie” who gets Andy as a training officer. As much attention as “Rookie Blue” gives the up-and-down “McSwarek” relationship of Andy and Sam, Cameron likes that Season 5 also showcases “characters that sometimes don’t get an ‘A’ story. We get to do special episodes where it’s all about Oliver (the officer played by Matt Gordon) or all about Nick. We’ve designed one around Oliver’s worst day, personally and professionally, and Matt is stellar in it.”

-What did you have for dinner last night? “A frozen vegan Ethiopian meal that got delivered from Fresh Direct.” -What is always in your refrigerator? “Beer, different types of milk – almond milk, soy milk, heavy cream, half and half – fake eggs, lots of butter, all kinds ... . One of my fridges is just sauces. I have three fridges. I am an active cook in the business.” -What will you not cook? “Puff pastry that goes to lazy and impatient. You are going to eat it in five seconds; why should it take you five hours? There is nothing I don’t like cooking.” -What would you like to learn to make? “Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup and a real Twinkie.”

When Sunny Anderson reflects on her life, landing on Food Network’s “The Kitchen” makes perfect sense. An Army brat, she grew up in many locales, and her parents, from the Carolinas, were adventurous diners. “We didn’t have the same thing over and over for dinner,” she says from her Brooklyn, N.Y., home. “We were constantly trying new ingredients.” Still, becoming a chef was “not something I could have planned,” she says. “When you grow and mature and start doing things that make you happy,” cooking was a natural career. Besides, she adds, “It’s really hard to make a cake for yourself and not share it, and when people like what you make, it emboldens you to cook more for others. It snowballed into a career I never planned, and I am really happy.” Anderson was in the Air Force for four years and worked at the military news agency. Later while working in radio, she whipped up dishes at home and brought them to the station. “Catering was not my plan,” Anderson says. “I started to charge my friends for the groceries. It was so rude to charge for the service of cooking. I thought they would not ask as much if I put a price on it. And that backfired.” “ ‘Oh it is just $5 for a tray of mac and cheese and a tray of greens?’ ” she quotes her friends as saying. “ ‘Well, can you do my friend’s baby shower? Can you do the conference I have in my office? So it just kind of spread.” By 2003, Anderson was living in a Jersey City apartment building with a common kitchen area certified by the health board that gave her enough room to work. “I could do volume and I found a local chicken place that would fry my chicken for me,” Anderson says. Now she devotes her time to the Food Network shows, and is in partnership writing cookbooks for Extended Stay America, a hotel chain featuring full kitchens. “To me it is a match made in heaven for a girl who likes to travel and eat,” Anderson says.

Sutton Foster of “Bunheads” on ABC Family “I am really into ‘Game of Thrones.’ I just rewatched the entire series and am heading into Season 4. I have been watching ‘The Following’ and have to do something else (when watching it). I have to draw, and I can’t watch late at night. And I watch ‘Scandal,’ which I love, love. And I love ‘Girls,’ and we just started watching ‘Silicon Valley’ and ‘Fargo.’ ”

Sasha Alexander of “Rizzoli & Isles” on TNT “ ‘Game of Thrones’ and ‘Veep’ are right up there. I’d have to say those are my two major obsessions; I’m just totally in love with those shows. We’ve binged on ‘House of Cards’ and ‘Sherlock,’ and I think ‘Louie’ is really fun. And ‘True Detective’ was a big one for us. Other than that, I’m into a lot of documentaries. I like that show ‘Vice’ on HBO.”

Ken Burns of “PBS Previews: The Roosevelts” “I binge on things like ‘Mad Men’ and ‘Breaking Bad’ and particularly ‘House of Cards,’ which I think is one of the finest things I’ve seen. I watch a lot of sports on television, which is the purest form of television – everything is true; there’s not manipulation. And I’m a news junkie. I mean, I think the past is prologue, and as Ecclesiastes says, there’s nothing new under the sun.”

Missy Peregrym of “Rookie Blue” on ABC “Honestly, the only thing is that there’s a church here in Toronto, and I watch the sermons on Sunday.”

The Progress-Index, Petersburg, Va., June 15 - 21, 2014 BY JAY BOBBIN “THE LEGO MOVIE” With the popularity of the toy building blocks over several generations, it’s somewhat surprising this film didn’t happen before it did ... but there surely will be more chapters, given the box-office success and high entertainment factor of this immensely enjoyable animated feature. Chris Pratt voices a Lego figure mistakenly thought to be the only one capable of stopping a power-crazed executive (voice of Will Ferrell). Morgan Freeman, Liam Neeson, Elizabeth Banks and – as Batman – Will Arnett also are heard. DVD extras: “making-of” documentaries; audio commentary by cast and crew; deleted scenes; outtakes. ›››› (PG: AS) (Also on Blu-ray and On Demand) “THE GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL” Writer-director Wes Anderson’s comedydrama offers many familiar faces, but the most valuable player is Ralph Fiennes, outstanding as the concierge of the title site. He’s eager to service the needs of every guest ... even if that means going beyond the normal bounds of duty where some of the female clientele are concerned, but that dedication eventually gets him into big trouble. Adrien Brody, Bill Murray, Jude Law, Willem Dafoe, Edward Norton, Owen Wilson, Tilda Swinton, Jeff Goldblum, Saoirse Ronan and Mathieu Amalric also are in the huge cast. ››› (R: AS, P, V) “HOUSE OF CARDS: THE COMPLETE SECOND SEASON” It doesn’t take long for the surprises to start coming in the sophomore round of the acclaimed Netflix drama series, as the scheming Francis Underwood (Kevin

Spacey) ascends to the U.S. vice presidency. His wife, Claire (Golden Globe Award winner Robin Wright, who also makes her directing debut in this season), uses her new power to advocate for legislation with personal relevance to her.

“WALK OF SHAME”

Producer Zalman King (“9 1/2 Weeks,” “Wild Orchid”) brought his knack for sexually infused drama to series television with this Showtime anthology. A pre-”XFiles” David Duchovny is the link between the stories as Jake, who seeks to understand why his girlfriend committed suicide by using a pseudonym and inviting women to forward diary entries about their own relationships. Ally Sheedy, Matt LeBlanc, Sheryl Lee (“Twin Peaks”) and Maryam d’Abo (“The Living Daylights”) are among the guest stars. ››› (Not rated: AS, N, P)

The plot is paper-thin, but Elizabeth Banks’ natural charm helps this comedy as much as possible. She plays a local television newscaster who arrives in Los Angeles for a job interview that disappoints, then proceeds to have a one-night stand with a bartender (James Marsden). The next morning, she finds her car gone – along with her purse, phone and business attire – and with the prospect of another job, she embarks on a wild race through the city to make that appointment.

“JOE” Nicolas Cage is no stranger to action projects, but this drama is as much a character study. He plays the title character, an ex-convict who’s doing his best to go straight – but that becomes difficult when he befriends a youngster (Tye Sheridan, “Mud”) whose father is abusive. Joe then has to make a decision whether to do something about the situation in his own way. DVD extras: two “making-of” documentaries;

‘Inside Combat Rescue: The Last Stand’ walks with the Reapers After decades of war, the United States is winding down its involvement in Iraq and now Afghanistan, but whatever was achieved there came at a tremendous cost, both in blood and treasure. No one knows more about the blood than the United States Air Force Pararescue jumpers, known as PJs. It’s their task to get to, pick up and treat wounded warfighters and civilians. The National Geographic Channel series “Inside Combat Rescue,” which aired in 2013, embedded with an Afghanistan deployment of PJs, outfitting them with cutting-edge micro-cameras that recorded them on their missions. The result was a startlingly frank and revealing look at airmen that combine courage and daring with caring and compassion. On Sunday, June 15, National Geographic embeds with a new group of PJs from the 83rd Rescue Squadron in the waning days of Operation Enduring Freedom – along with introducing viewers to another group of airmen, the Reapers

– with the premiere of the two-hour special “Inside Combat Rescue: The Last Stand.” Stationed at Bagram Airfield in Afghanistan, the “Reapers” is an elite Air Force unit tasked with protecting the base, and that includes tracking and capturing or killing Taliban fighters that threaten its security. Meanwhile, the PJs spring into action to help people critically wounded following a massive attack on a compound in the city of Kabul. Major Chris Hagemeyer was the commander of the 755th Expeditionary Security Forces Squadron at Bagram Airfield, responsible for about 150 airmen, including the “Reaper” teams, defending the 36,000 personnel on base. His team also partnered with Afghan National Security Forces to conduct patrols, clear routes and engage villagers. Now back home, Hagemeyer is the commander of the 822nd Base Defense Squadron at Moody Air Force in Valdosta, Ga.
