SHORT TAKES : U.S. Magazine’s Readers Say: And Now, Heeeeere’s Arsenio!

Move over, Johnny and Dave. Arsenio is the fairest in late-night TV talk show land these days. At least that’s how US magazine readers see it.

US magazine’s third annual readers’ poll, which surveyed 3,600 people, showed its readers to be a fickle lot.

Just last year, they chose Roseanne Barr as the best TV actress, but this year she was named worst TV actress. She was also named “most overexposed actress” and her show, “Roseanne,” was “the worst TV series.”

On the other hand, they love “Roseanne” co-star John Goodman, although not his fashion sense. He was named “best TV actor” and “worst-dressed actor” by readers responding to a ballot published in the March 5 issue.

Other picks were:

Best movie actor: Tom Cruise. Worst: Sylvester Stallone.

Best movie actress: Bette Midler. Worst: Madonna.

Best Movie: “Born on the Fourth of July.” Worst: “Batman.”

Best TV actor: John Goodman. Worst: Bill Cosby.

Best TV actress: Candice Bergen. Worst: Roseanne Barr.

Entertainer of the Year and best late night talk show host: Arsenio Hall.
