TLC returns to pageantry: Meet Coach Charming

He’s no Mr. Congeniality, but Bill Alverson has one impressive track record. The prominent Alabama attorney and brutally frank pageant coach is the subject of TLC’s new docu/reality series Coach Charming. “The last four Miss Americas were girls I knew personally.

In Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, Ward (Brett Dalton) has a new right-hand man who is seemingly made of steel. Kebo, the quasi-henchman, is played by a real-life gladiator, actor Daz Crawford.
