It’s safe to say Lollapalooza didn’t have people like me in mind when choosing its headliners. There is no hip-hop headliner like there was in 2008 (Kanye West) and 2011 (Eminem). Also, I’m too young to care that the three-day music...

Television review: Kelsey Grammer in 'Boss'
![There is something essentially likable about Kelsey Grammer as a performer. That broad scholar-like forehead, the strong jaw and mild blue eyes all conspire to create the image of a sometimes bumbling but still powerful guy, best embodied by his most lasting character, Frasier Crane. This ability to project opposing forces is one reason Grammer has been so successful in comedy — he can play the fool and still remain an alpha male. It's also why he is now able to breathe life into Frasier Crane's hard-hearted doppelganger, Chicago Mayor Tom Kane, who is the centerpiece of Starz's new political drama "Boss."](http://www.latimes.com/media/thumbnails/story/2011-10/65547528-20170223.jpg "There is something essentially likable about Kelsey Grammer as a performer.

Covering Chicago by covering "Boss"
![I spent a full day on the set with the "Boss" cast and crew when they were filming here this summer, and I walked away with the distinct impression that the series would not fall into some of the same traps that hampered Fox's "The Chicago Code" or so many other cinematic portrayals of the city -- the kind that invariably include a corny line such as "That's how we do it in Chicago" spoken in a mangled Chicago accent.](http://www.chicagotribune.com/media/thumbnails/story/2011-10/282256780-20122743.jpg "I spent a full day on the set with the "Boss\" cast and crew when they were filming here this summer, and I walked away with the distinct impression that the series would not fall into some of the same traps that hampered Fox's \"The Chicago Code\" or so many other cinematic portrayals of the city -- the kind that invariably include a corny line such as \"That's how we do it in Chicago\" spoken in a mangled Chicago accent.")
