Early in her career, Lea Thompson was in a Burger King commercial with Sarah Michelle Gellar and Elisabeth Shue (1982). In 1983, she co-starred with Tom Cruise in the football movie All the Right Moves (1983) and had a role in Jaws 3-D. She played Lorraine Baines McFly in three Back to the Future films (1985, 1989 and 1990). She met her husband, Howard Deutch, on the set of Some Kind of Wonderful (1987), which he directed. She joined Farrah Fawcett and Peter Weller in The Substitute Wife (1994), which was set in pioneer days in Nebraska, and was Caroline Duģy for 97 episodes of the comedy Caroline in the City (1995-1999). Thompson starred in and directed several Jane Doe TV movies from 2006-2008 and episodes of Switched At Birth…

This is your 14th season. What keeps you coming back? What keeps me coming back is every time somebody says they’ve started a business because they’ve watched Shark Tank… It happens so often. We’ve been on so long, you get kids in their 20s and 30s saying, “Yeah, we watched you in high school and that’s what got me into business.” Or “I watched you when I was ten years old”—making us feel really old—“and that’s what really got me excited about business.” So, knowing that every show gets seen in so many classrooms, by so many families, that’s why I continue to do it. When you invest, is it the product or the person that’s more important? Sometimes there’s an entrepreneur that’s just so good that, OK, maybe I…

FOUND (Oct. 3 on NBC) PR specialist Gabi Mosely (Shanola Hampton), who saved herself after being abducted 20 years earlier, has assembled a crack crisis management team—all of whom in some way have a personal connection to missing children—to help other victims. There’s a twist to the series that you won’t see coming. SULLIVAN’S CROSSING(Oct. 4, The CW) Virgin River fans will like this latest series based on novels by Robyn Carr and starring two CW favorites: One Tree Hill’s Chad Michael Murray and Gilmore Girls’ Scott Patterson. When neurosurgeon Maggie Sullivan (Morgan Kohan) returns to her childhood home at Sullivan’s Crossing, a campground run by her estranged father, Sully Sullivan (Patterson), she discovers life in Nova Scotia can be equally complicated—especially when she meets handsome newcomer, Cal Jones (Murray).…

Favorite Childhood Movie Harold & Maude[from 1971]. “This goes back to my weird sense of humor.

THE IRRATIONAL (SEPT. 25 ON NBC) Bill Nye is the Science Guy. Now Jesse L. Martin is the Behavioral Science Guy when he returns once again to crime solving in The Irrational. This time around he isn’t a member of the police force, like on Law & Order, but rather works with law enforcement in his role as Alex Mercer, a professor of behavioral science. “It’s your standard procedural with nothing standard about it,” Martin, 54, says. “You’re basically following this guy through his personal life and his professional life, and he has the bonus of being very tuned in on human behavior, and the deficit of being very tuned in on human behavior. So, you can imagine how much that would affect his personal life. It certainly benefits his…

*INTERVIEW CONDUCTED BEFORE THE SAG-AFTRA STRIKE “WHEN YOU GET TO BE MY AGE, YOU DEFINITELY START TO APPRECIATE TIME.” Lea Thompson curls up on a chair inside her rustic Montana home, ready to talk about everything. But, perhaps inevitably, the conversation turns to one subject: Time. This is not just because the actress co-starred in the Back to the Future movies, which remains one of the most iconic franchises in history. Thompson is also a youthful 62—which is 15 years older than the wrinkly, smoky-voiced version of her character, Lorraine Baines McFly, in the original 1985 film. She’s been married for 34 years to director Howard Deutch (Pretty in Pink) and they have two daughters, writer Madelyn, 32, and actress Zoey, 28. Maddie just got married. And, well, it all…

Send questions to marilyn@parade.com Dear Marilyn, When you buy a mattress, should you buy a box spring? Why does anyone need a box spring? —Francisco Castillo, Brooklyn, New York Your mattress needs only a firm, supportive foundation that will raise it to a height that’s comfortable for you. That could be the ĥoor (but probably not, unless you’re a teenager), metal or wooden slats that run across the width of a bed frame, or any kind of similarly sturdy base that will support the weight of the mattress plus its occupants. A box spring is just one option that will serve this purpose. Modern mattresses are unnecessarily thick, giving the illusion of greater comfort, which makes them require sturdy support for their extra weight. If your bed frame already has…
