HBO to air George Harrison documentary →

HBO has scored the North American TV rights to George Harrison: Living in the Material World, produced by Martin Scorsese and featuring interviews with Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Yoko Ono, Eric Clapton and Terry Gilliam, among others.

HBO has picked up the rights to the doc, which will air over two parts on October 5 and 6, from Olivia Harrison’s Grove Street Pictures. The film was produced by Scorsese through his Sikelia Productions banner, together with Harrison and Nigel Sinclair of Exclusive’s documentary label, Spitfire Pictures. The film chronicles Harrison’s life, much of it told in his own words, from his musical beginnings in Liverpool through his time as a musician, spiritual seeker, philanthropist and filmmaker.

The 25 Most Stylish Men on TV →

8. Ben Wyatt (Adam Scott), “Parks and Recreation”
Pawnee, Indiana is a podunk town. And yet, there are some impressively well-dressed men roaming the halls of the local government building. Ben Wyatt, the out-of-town fixer and budding paramour of Amy Poehler’s Leslie Knope, is a simple man with deceptively hip taste. You can find him rocking check shirts and solid skinny ties (and vice versa) topped off with a modernized Member’s Only spring jacket or khaki blazer. Also, his hair has got some epic swoop going on. Sure, he’s a budget-slashing bureaucrat muckety-muck, but at least the man knows how to dress. –S.F.

3. Tom Haverford (Aziz Ansari), “Parks and Recreation”
All Purple Label Everything. That’s the primary playboy of Pawnee’s motto. Ben Wyatt nails approachable style, but Tom—entrepreneurial co-owner of the Snake Hole and creator of the haze—inducing Snake Juice—is a different animal all together. French cuffs, tailored suits, bad pickup lines, and an enthusiasm for all things T-Pain make Tom H. (born, ahem, Darwish Sabir Ismael Gani) Indiana’s most unwanted eligible bachelor. And don’t forget, ladies: he’s a foodie, too.—S.F.

• Ron fucking Swanson made it to the top of the noble failures list.
