ANDREW AUSTEN LUCK BIRTHPLACE: Washington, D.C. BIRTH DATE: Sept. 12, 1989 HEIGHT/WEIGHT: 6 feet 4 inches/234 pounds CAREER HIGHLIGHTS: Named 2011 Orange Bowl MVP after throwing for 287 yards and four touchdowns in the Cardinal’s 40-12 rout of Virginia Tech ... is Stanford’s all-time leader in wins by a starting quarterback with 31
The Indianapolis Colts knew they were getting a franchise quarterback when they drafted Stanford’s Andrew Luck with the top overall pick in April. Scouts throughout the NFL were in near-universal agreement over that. What the team didn’t anticipate was the impact he’d have so soon in his NFL career, bringing the Colts to the verge of a playoff appearance just a year removed from a 2-14 season. As of early December, the 23-year-old Houston native was fourth in the league with 3,596 passing yards – tops among rookie QBs – putting him on a pace to break Cam Newton’s record of 4,051 yards set last year. He’s also shown a flair for the dramatic. In the Colts’ Week 13 victory over the Detroit Lions, he led two scoring drives in the game’s final 2:39 to overcome a 12-point deficit and give Indy a rousing 35-33 triumph. The win gave the young signal caller his fifth game-winning fourth quarter drive of the year and his eighth victory, most ever by a rookie quarterback taken No. 1 overall. Some are calling him the best rookie quarterback ever – although fans of Newton and Robert Griffin III might take issue – and others have even floated MVP talk. On the down side, his high interception total and relatively low passer rating would likely remove him from that discussion. Luck and the Colts continue their drive for the postseason when they visit the Kansas City Chiefs Sunday, Dec. 23, in a regional game airing on CBS.

At this point of the year, month and week, it had better be looking a lot like Christmas. With the much-anticipated holiday upon us, television is doing its part, presenting attractions that reflect the spirit of the season in a variety of ways ... some funny, some serious and some simply built for all-out yuletide fun. Here’s a roundup of much of what’s still left for viewers on the virtual Christmas tree otherwise known as a TV screen. ABC: This year’s “CMA Country Christmas” special, with Jennifer Nettles of Sugarland back as host for the third consecutive year, gets a repeat Sunday, Dec. 23 – and later that day, the Julie Andrews-starring holiday-season perennial “The Sound of Music” also returns. Monday, Dec. 24, sees repeats of the animated specials “Disney’s Prep & Landing” and “Shrek the Halls.” And Christmas itself is packed with TV tradition Tuesday, Dec. 25; the morning is marked by the Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade, and the animated and liveaction versions of “Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas” are paired that night. NBC: For many people, Christmas Eve means one thing in entertainment terms – the James Stewart-starring, Frank Capra-directed movie classic “It’s a Wonderful Life” – and it’s back Monday. And another Dr. Seuss tale is in prime time Tuesday with the animated film “Horton Hears a Who!” Fox: The sitcom “Raising Hope” gets Christmas Eve duty Monday, with repeats of the holiday episodes from both last year and this year. The CW: It’s an animated Christmas Eve on Monday with the voices of Ed Asner, Kathy Bates and (as Santa) Andy Griffith in the aptly scheduled movie “Christmas Is Here Again,” followed by the special “Second Star to the Left.” TBS: Seasonal episodes of many of the cable channel’s featured sitcoms, from “Friends” to “Everybody Loves Raymond,” are offered Monday. And from Monday night through most of the day Tuesday, it’s another holiday tradition, the 24-hour marathon of the amusingly nostalgic 1983 movie “A Christmas Story.” TNT: Movie lovers will be happy Sunday with Judy Garland and her Yellow Brick Road companions in the 1939 family favorite “The Wizard of Oz,” then all three of the “Lord of the Rings” movies. Then on Monday, Patrick Stewart is excellent as Scrooge in the 1999 version of “A Christmas Carol.”

Kelli Giddish of “Law & Order: SVU” on NBC: “Candied yams and eggnog, biscuits and gravy. I literally can have as many biscuits as I want on Christmas.” Patricia Heaton of “The Middle” on ABC: “I like stuffing and sweet potatoes, so I sort of carbo-load since I’m not allowed to have them during the rest of the year.” Joe Mantegna of “Criminal Minds” on CBS: “You’re talking to an Italian guy, and I know this is going to sound strange, but it would be my Aunt Pauline’s ravioli. That’s always my go-to thing as I think about Christmas. She’s long passed now, but if I could relive that, that would be something. And my grandmother would make a thing with seven different kinds of fish, so that, too. A lot of it is rooted in childhood memories as much as the actual food itself.” Sandra Lee of “Semi-Homemade Cooking With Sandra Lee” on Food Network: “Hmmm, white chocolate egg nog.” Taylor Swift: “Pumpkin bread, and anything that smells like cinnamon or ginger. Any cookies. I’m in love with all holiday baked goods.”
Padma Lakshmi of “Top Chef: Seattle” on Bravo: “I like stuffing. I think turkey is fine, but for me, the sides are where it’s at. I make stuffing about 4,000 different ways. I think this year I’m going to do it with Chinese sausage. We also make a lot of chutneys, so instead of cranberry sauce, we have cranberry chutney, which is very piquant, spicy and sour. We also do lima beans and sweet potatoes, but we don’t do them with marshmallows, we do them with cumin and red chilis. It’s very traditional, but there are tweaks within the traditional items.” Melanie Lynskey of “Two and a Half Men” on CBS: “It’s so funny, because in New Zealand, it’s summer ... so we have a barbecue, and my auntie makes this most Kelli Giddish amazing salad every Christmas. I really look forward to that.” Alton Brown of the recently concluded “Next Iron Chef: Redemption” on Food Network: “I usually don’t even eat (my standing rib roast). I cut the roast off the bones and save the bones for myself. I just gnaw on the bones. At Christmastime, everybody gets these big slabs of meat, and I get a pile of bones. And it’s just what I want for Christmas, a glass of red wine and a pile of bones.” Reba McEntire of “Malibu Country” on ABC: “Iced chocolate (milk chocolate, not dark!) brownies with nuts.” Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino of the recently concluded “Jersey Shore” on MTV: “Christmas eve, seafood Fra Diavlo.”

“THE WORDS”
BY JAY BOBBIN
With all the plagiarism controversies of recent times, you’d think the creatively blocked author (played by Bradley Cooper) at the heart of this story would know better ... but then, you might not have this somewhat intriguing movie. While visiting Paris, he just happens to run across another writer’s manuscript, which he gets published under his own name and has great success with. Inevitably, though, he pays a big price for claiming someone else’s credit. The impressive cast also includes Dennis Quaid, Jeremy Irons, Zoe Saldana and Olivia Wilde. DVD extras: two “making-of” documentaries. ››› (PG13 and unrated versions: AS, P) (Also on Blu-ray and Movies on Demand) “THE WELL-DIGGER’S DAUGHTER” Celebrated French actor Daniel Auteuil (“Jean de Florette,” “Manon of the Spring”) also serves as director and screenwriter in this take on the Marcel Pagnol screen classic, in which Auteuil casts himself as a widower struggling to furnish good lives for his six daughters. His plan goes off course when the eldest of the siblings (Astrid Berges-Frisbey) becomes pregnant by a pilot (Nicolas Duvauchelle) who soon goes off to serve in World War I, first dividing and later uniting the two families. ››› (Not rated: AS) (Also on Blu-ray) “IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE” With the week of Christmas a light one for new releases, it’s appropriate to include several seasonal staples, such as this Frank Capra-directed 1946 classic.

“A CHRISTMAS STORY”
“LOVE ACTUALLY”
There’s never a doubt this holiday favorite will come back around, thanks to its annual 24-hour marathon on television. Anyone who ever desired that one special holiday gift can empathize with Ralphie (Peter Billingsley), author-narrator Jean Shepherd’s young alias who desperately wants a Red Ryder BB gun – the one his mother (Melinda Dillon) warns will “shoot your eye out.” Always deserving of citing is Darren McGavin as the gruff dad who never actually curses, though it sure sounds like it. DVD extras: theatrical trailer; three “making-of” documentaries; audio commentary by Billingsley and director and co-writer Bob Clark. ››› (PG: P) (Also on Blu-ray)
From the outset, writer-director Richard Curtis’ fabulous 2003 comedy-drama is all about the countdown to a British Christmas ... and also about a lot more, thanks to a labyrinth of characters with involving stories. Among the best: the new prime minister’s (Hugh Grant) attraction to an aide (Martine McCutcheon); an art gallery manager’s (Andrew Lincoln, “The Walking Dead”) secret passion for his best friend’s (Chiwetel Ejiofor) new bride (Keira Knightley); and a faded music star’s (Bill Nighy) bid for a comeback with a seasonally refitted pop tune.

“WHITE CHRISTMAS” As comfortable as an active fireplace on a cold winter’s night, this tuneful 1954 retooling of the 12-years-earlier “Holiday Inn” makes great use of its Irving Berlin score. Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye make an ideal team as military veterans who become successful entertainment partners, then use their talents to help their former commander (Dean Jagger) re-energize his failing resort. Rosemary Clooney – aunt of George – and Vera-Ellen are charmers as the siblings who distract the guys.

Film about the Joffrey Ballet leaps onto PBS
Before “So You Think You Can Dance,” “Dancing With the Stars” and other shows attracted large audiences to dance, there was Robert Joffrey. He brought dance to everyone, using his company, the Joffrey Ballet, as ambassadors of dance, traveling the country, putting on shows. The dramatic tale of the dance company is beautifully told in “Joffrey: Mavericks of American Dance” on PBS’ “American Masters” Friday, Dec. 28 (check local listings). It’s not an overstatement to say that Robert Joffrey revolutionized dance in America. “I always thought it was important to represent the country, to use American music,” Joffrey, who died in 1988, says in the film. He went beyond traditional ballet, which many found effete and difficult to embrace. He set dance to contemporary music, but used basic ballet moves, melded with modern dance. His choreography was modern, but not so abstract that it shut out audiences for being too avant-garde.
Dancers quoted Joffrey as saying, “classical ballet should be the center, not the circumference of your movement.” “A lot of people have an idea that ballet is inaccessible, and the Joffrey has always been the counter to that,” says Ashley C. Wheater, the company’s artistic director. “It has always been an accessible company.” Wheater, a danseur in many companies who had once performed with Rudolph Nureyev, says, “I think it is a company that really has its own vitality, and its own opinion about the dance world, and what dance is. And the company has always connected to their audience. One of the things about the company having toured so much, and even today, and I believe in Joffrey’s vision, which was to take the most eclectic repertoire across America to the widest audience.” Mandy Patinkin narrates the saga. Interwoven are clips from performances, interviews with dancers, dance critics and behind-the-scenes staff.

Q: A:
With such recent matters as Mitt Romney’s decision not to appear on the show, and your comments about Donald Trump’s $5 million offer to President Obama to release certain documents, what’s your view of “The View” staying so newsworthy?
When this program was put on the air 16 years ago, Roone Arledge – who was the president of ABC – did not want me to do it. He thought it would lessen my reputation, and they never thought it would make it. It did not get the promotion that some other ABC shows got; they just sort of snuck us in, and I spent a lot of that first year calling different stations. The Philadelphia affiliate didn’t carry us, the Boston affiliate didn’t carry us, the Washington, D.C., affiliate didn’t carry us. And we never thought the show would last, and you still don’t see a lot of promos for “The View.” We’re the stepchild, and yet ... 16 years?
Q: A:
What do you think the most successful factor of “The View” has been?
The ability to pick women who are appealing and edgy, and I’ve been watching other programs copy us. We have very intelligent and interesting and rather quirky women, and we stay on top of issues. We don’t mind doing politics in the daytime, we don’t mind doing very provocative subjects, and we don’t mind arguing. We’ve had some arguments on the air, and there aren’t a lot of shows where the women feel at ease enough with each other for that.

Soap Synopses The Bold and the Beautiful Brooke was flabbergasted over being confronted over her feelings for Bill, who was pressed by Taylor to admit he betrayed Katie by kissing Brooke. Brooke confessed and apologized to Katie. Caroline threatened Steffy not to cross a Spencer while dating another Spencer. Bill’s attitude toward her loved ones surprised Katie. Rick turned down Brooke’s offer to help him tell Hope about his deception. Hope was surprised by what Bill had to say. Bill tried to ensure Caroline didn’t say too much. Hope was taken aback by Rick’s confession and tried to find Liam to tell him why they were no longer together. Days of our Lives Kristen faked a nightmare while in bed with Brady, who pressed her to find out what it was about, and she confessed her fear their affair would be discovered.

SATURDAY MORNING
“The Princess Diaries”
FRIDAY M ulan 9 p.m. on FAM
A Chinese maiden (voice of Ming-Na) disguises herself as a man to take her father’s place in battle against invading Huns in this colorful Disney animated adaptation of an Asian legend. The impressive voice cast also includes B.D. Wong, Miguel Ferrer, Harvey Fierstein, Beth Fowler and George Takei, but Eddie Murphy steals the show as the voice of Mushu, a tiny dragon who becomes Mulan’s traveling companion.
SATURDAY The Princess Diaries 6:30 p.m. on FAM
A modern variation on “Cinderella,” director Garry Marshall’s charming 2001 comedy stars Anne Hathaway as a shy, unsophisticated teen whose desire to stay under the radar is trashed by the news that she’s a member of royalty. Her long-estranged grandmother (an ideally cast Julie Andrews) tries to train her to take over the monarchy. Singer-actress Mandy Moore co-stars.
