"A couple months back, our Anna chatted with Katharine McPhee, who had this to say about Smash&amp;#x27;s new season-two showrunner, Josh Safran of Gossip Girl: &amp;quot;I think he&amp;amp;#8217;s going to give Broadway a glam makeover, you know?&amp;quot; And did he ever. I&amp;#x27;ve been poring over these season two portraits, and everybody looks just a wee bit fiercer--and happier to be looking fiercer--one way or another. As someone who long lamented Ivy&amp;#x27;s season-end spinout, I am delighted to see her looking downright effervescent in blue. It&amp;#x27;s like she doesn&amp;#x27;t even know she&amp;#x27;s in a subway station. Get a load of Tom in his jewel-tones and fitted plaid. Karen Cartwright: clear eyes, full curls, can&amp;#x27;t lose. And--NO--can this possibly be Julia? She of the peasant skirts, flapping jackets and thousand scarves (all the better for crying into)? I can&amp;#x27;t believe my eyes. Then, with Anjelica Huston, they--just kidding. Anjelica Huston&amp;#x27;s look hasn&amp;#x27;t needed updating for forty years, because it&amp;#x27;s perfect. I&amp;#x27;m just loving this whole RENT-inspired thing right now. Everyone&amp;#x27;s dripping with pizzazz. Breath of fresh air, right? I&amp;#x27;m somehow more excited for Smash this season than I was for season one. Are you going to watch? Photo: NBC"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
