...relief that CBS's Martin and Lewis (Nov. 24, 9 p.m. E.T.) is mainly about the show-biz duo--singer Dean Martin and hey-lady-comic Jerry Lewis--as a show-biz duo. It starts where their public lives do, in a crisply directed sequence with the two preparing to go onstage: the camera zeroes in on their hands, as Martin coolly downs a Scotch and Lewis fusses with his props.

He has achieved near shaman-like success. His band Joujouka's new single Invade, featuring Kyono, the lead singer for the popular metal band The Mad Capsule Markets, is a clubland smash. (The band also scored the PlayStation 2 shooter game, Rez.) With a catalog of over 20 albums and mix CDs, Tsuyoshi, whose return to Tokyo in 2000 triggered a nationwide trance boom, is that peculiar millennial superstar...
