Quibbles & Bits

Last week, we referred to a CBS miniseries on the Walker spy ring as “Family of Five.” It should have been “Family of Spies.” Sorry!

Julian Schlossberg, business rep for Elaine May stated that, contrary to a reference in Calendar, his client had “nothing to do with the ‘Dick Tracy’ script” currently being filmed by Warren Beatty.

. . . KTTV News tried to pass off as news coverage a shameless hype job on the Fox syndicated show “Cops”--which aired, of course, on KTTV.

. . . KABC’s garrulous Gary Franklin tells us about popping into a Cannon-owned porn theater in Glasgow while on vacation--and finding that “all the (hard-core) sex scenes had been cut” from the film. Returning Stateside, he called Cannon to complain about not getting his money’s worth. Postscript: Cannon sent him a 5 note!
