SAVING NETWORK TV: THE PEOPLE RESPOND
The Calendar Letters Page on April 14 appealed--in all semi-seriousness--to the reader-masses for fresh, new ideas to help save network television. The generosity of readers has been ample and heartwarming. The least frivolous contributions are segregated in the box at the right. The rest follow.
“Charles II in Charge”--The irrepressible monarch returns to fight off civil strife and revolution with a Baroque Chevy Nova that talks. Also starring Dee Snider, Frank Zappa and numerous cats and dogs.
“The Aesthetic Team”--George Peppard stars as a sort of Marcel Duchamp meets Dirty Harry in this crime/action show. In the two-hour pilot, a “Starving Artist” sale is halted through the clever actions of Mr. T and a group of Abstract Expressionists.
