If you are like me–obsessed with Stephenie Meyer’s “Twilight Series” and eagerly anticipating the film version of book one, “Twilight,” then you’ll be happy to know that Entertainment Weekly is doing a three-issue feature (with “collectable covers”) as the release day approaches (in theaters November 21).

One of my all-time favorite television moms was Phylicia Rashad as the ever-capable, ever-glamorous, ever-wise, and ever-beautiful Clair Huxtable, lawyer, mother of five, and wife of the ever-bemused Cliff Huxtable.

Our good friends at…

In this scene from the upcoming vampire movie “Twilight”–which opens in theaters on November 21st–main character Bella Swan has a lunchroom encounter with the mysterious Edward Cullen.
