Five comedies and four dramas

That’s not spring in the air, but fall series ordering season.

Fox has gotten the ball rolling on a new slate of programming, adding five comedy pilots and four dramas. On the comedy side, TV critics have noted how male-dominated the concepts are, especially in light of Fox’s recent female-centric programs like “The Mindy Project,” “New Girl” and the now canceled “Ben and Kate.”

Instead of Mindy Kaling and Zooey Deschanel, eyes will be on Seth MacFarlane and Andy Samberg in the fall.

Low-alcohol dessert wine

“It’s a celebration, clap clap bravo, Lobster and shrimp and a glass of moscato...”

Those are the eloquent first lines of “Do It Now,” a song by Hip Hop artist Drake. Instead of popping bottles of Cristal, these days, rappers and Hip Hop moguls prefer their bubbles sweet.

Moscato is made from Muscat grapes, which are grown in many places around the world and can vary in color from green to red to black. As a result, there are a few different uses for Muscat grapes, and they can make a variety of different types of wines.
