He’ll Decide in May: ABC President Bob Iger said he’ll wait until next month to decide if Tom Arnold’s “The Jackie Thomas Show” returns to the network next fall. He gave the program, which tied for 16th place in overall 1992-93 ratings, a lukewarm endorsement, saying it “delivered a decent performance” in its spot behind Roseanne Arnold’s second-place finisher “Roseanne.” The Arnolds have publicly threatened to jump to another network if “Jackie” is not renewed. If “Jackie” does return, Iger hinted it would be moved to another time slot.
