Save My Skin, on TLC
Dermatologist Dr. Emma Craythorne continues on her quest to fix everyone's skin in the Season 4 premiere. Kicking off the new season is Chris, who has been suffering with itchy, pus-filled lesions that cover his entire body. Then, Lauren consults with Dr. Emma about an unsightly forehead lump.
Q: Did the kid who played young Chris on "Everybody Hates Chris" continue acting?
It's safe to say at this point (he's 30 now) that Tyler James Williams is one of those rare actors who transitioned pretty smoothly from child stardom to adult stardom. He continues to be in demand to this day.
He had a few small roles in his preteen years, but it was his role on "Everybody Hates Chris," which he landed when he was 13, that brought Williams to public attention.

There really isn't a single, definitive version of the timeless ballet "The Nutcracker," but that's not necessarily a bad thing.
Rather than finding one good version and a bunch of poor ones, which is usually what happens when we search for a "definitive" anything, in this case we have a number of different versions that all have their own charms. And all are available on DVD from the usual retailers.
