Anthony Anderson

Anthony Anderson was bent on bringing funny back this TV season. A scene-stealer extraordinaire, Anderson -- big of voice, size and brash comic bravado -- had scored steady work for more than a decade in films such as "Kangaroo Jack," "Barbershop," "Me, Myself & Irene," "Scary Movie 3" and numerous other films and TV series. Lately, he has largely put the jokes aside for more serious turns, winning raves for supporting roles in "The Shield" and "Hustle & Flow."

There's nothing like a sitcom concept whose time has come, which is why television households are being overrun this season with boomerang kids. But for Anthony Anderson, the idea of grown offspring returning home to live with mom and pop was torn from the pages of his diary, not a script treatment.

Lives intersect, but so do Tarantino-esque clichés, in "The Power of Few," a ham-fisted, timeline-altering variety pack of crime set in New Orleans. Five vignettes take place over the same small chunk of temporal real estate, ending in a ripple effect of violence. A desperate young man (Devon Gearhart) needs medicine for his baby brother; two spies (Christian Slater, Nicky Whelan) hunt a possible terrorist; a flirty messenger (Q'orianka Kilcher, who also produced) rescues a man (Jesse Bradford)

A city in Soviet Armenia formerly closed to foreigners could become Pasadena's fourth Sister City under a recommendation from the Board of Directors. Byurakan, Armenia, a town of 25,000 people that was previously not even listed on maps, was proposed Tuesday by the board. The town is in the Caucasus Mountains and is well known as a scientific center and for its observatory, said Charles Papas, a professor of electrical engineering at Caltech.
