Michael Douglas has endured a lot the past few years, from stage-four cancer to the imprisonment of his son. Now, as Liberace (of all characters), he gets yet another career rebirth, by Lynn Hirschberg; Arrested Development was so ahead of its time that it’s a small miracle TV finally caught up, by Will Leitch; the fate of her country-music show is up in the air, but Hayden Panettiere has no intention of ever truly leaving Nashville, by Amanda Dobbins; on the verge of majorly disappointing, or thrilling, viewers with Walter White’s final act, Breaking Bad showrunner Vince Gilligan talks good endings.
