Smart List: A real ‘Beauty,’ and ‘Mary’ too

Think you’re in an odd relationship? Talk about “Beauty and the Beast.”

Once upon a time, in a faraway land, a young prince lived in a shining vault, er, castle … Disney’s moratorium on the tale as old as time is getting lifted! Catch Belle, her beastly suitor and his talking household objects when the animated fairy tale is re-released on DVD. (Tuesday)

Have the urge to throw your hat in the air? Talk about “The Mary Tyler Moore Show: The Complete Seventh Season.”

She can turn the world on with her smile … even via a DVD. Relive the always spunky Mary Richards and her quirky friends — including Ms. Betty White as Sue Ann Nivens — over at TV station WJM when the seventh and final season of the popular ‘70s sitcom is released on DVD.

If you don’t talk about “Doo-Wops & Hooligans,” you’ll surely hear it bumping from the car stereos of smitten Bruno Mars fans.

Cocaine charges (and a mildly amusing mug shot) aside, Bruno Mars is having an incredible year. The singer-songwriter has co-written and lent his vocals to hits like B.o.B.’s “Nothing on You” and “Billionaire” by Travie McCoy. Now he’s releasing his debut album with the swoon-worthy lead single “Just the Way You Are.” (Tuesday)

Sick of Tim Gunn’s diatribes? Talk about “On the Road with Austin & Santino: Celebrating in Style.”

In the new Lifetime series, “Project Runway” alums Austin Scarlett and Santino Rice are going cross-country, looking for small-town women who are marking milestones (e.g. a special birthday, anniversary or graduation) and transforming their looks. What happened to Andrae? (Thursday)

If you talk about “Life As We Know It,” you might forget how hot it is.

Admit it, females (and males): those billboards with Josh Duhamel in boxer briefs (and not much else, save for some shoes) have caught your attention. The flick behind the clothing-optional marketing plan is coming to a theater near you. Catch Duhamel and Katherin Heigl (“27 Dresses,” “Killers”) struggle to raise their goddaughter together after their mutual best friends die. Hey, an air-conditioned movie theater beats being out in the heat.
