The veteran actor - who first became a star in the '70s miniseries Rich Man, Poor Man - had become a stumbling punchline after his notorious arrest a decade ago. Now he's at the top of his game again thanks to his knockout work as a pair of very different trainers: an alcoholic MMA coach in his Oscar-nominated performance in Warrior and an old stable hand in HBO's new horseracing drama. You can't help but feel like Nolte identifies with his Luck role as Walter Smith, aka the Old Man, a seemingly over-the-hill geezer who's enlivened to make one last run for glory. TV Guide Magazine recently interviewed Nolte, who revealed that Luck creator David Milch had approached him to star in his last series, the ill-conceived (and -fated) John From Cincinnati. Nolte turned it down, he said, because he "didn't quite get that one." When Nick Nolte finds something incoherent, that's really saying something. But Milch and Nolte have started making sense again, and don't be surprised if the old acting pro rides this role all the way to an Emmy. What do you think of Luck -a nd Nick Nolte?

Switched at Birth Team Talks Series' Impact on the Deaf Community

Switched at Birth Switched at Birth star Vanessa Marano admits that she initially had doubts that the producers would be able to find the right actress to play the show's deaf leading lady, Daphne. "When I read this script, I was literally like they're never going to find this girl," Marano told reporters at ABC Family's winter TV preview Monday. "I'm so thankful that someone like Katie [Leclerc] did get cast - someone who has been doing this for so long." On the drama Marano and Leclerc play teenagers who discover they were literally switched at birth in the hospital 16 years ago. The series largely focuses on how the girls' families blend together and come to terms with the discovery. But the show has also received attention for the attention it has brought to the deaf community because of Daphne. Switched at Birth creator says Bay and Emmett have conflict ahead - can Daphne move on? When casting Daphne, it was important to "have cultural perspective on hearing loss," creator and executive producer Lizzy Weiss said. Leclerc, who suffers from the degenerative inner ear disorder Ménière's disease, was the clear choice, "I feel comfortable in the deaf world I feel comfortable in the hearing world," Leclerc said. "I'm glad I can cross over." While Leclerc has had to use a deaf accent, the rest of the cast has had to learn sign language - both for their scenes in front of the camera as well as for their own personal knowledge. Co-star Lucas Grabeel said after Leclerc began teaching him five signs a day, he now signs with his girlfriend at parties. "Every one of the cast members has learned some sign language and they're doing fantastic," said Sean Berdy, who plays Daphne's childhood deaf friend (and Bay's new boyfriend), Emmett. Berdy has been deaf since birth and grew up in a deaf household. Exclusive: Meredith Baxter to guest-star on Switched at Birth Since the show premiered, Constance Marie and others said they've received positive response online from fans newly interested in sign language. Marano's father, a language professor, told her that Switched at Birth is now being used in American Sign Language classes. "[The show] has taken a culture that has not been looked at and is shining a big, beautiful light on the deaf community. ... The more people that learn sign language the better," Berdy said. "This is part of my life, but it's not part of everybody's life, so it's nice to expose this to the world." That exposure will only continue: The cast and producers said there will be more deaf characters introduced on the series, including a character who, like Daphne, grew up with a hearing parent but had a very different childhood. Switched at Birth airs Tuesdays at 8/7c. Watch our interview with Katie Leclerc:
