...shows and several old ones in new time periods. Among the newcomers: Total Security, a Steven Bochco drama about a security firm; Hiller and Diller, starring Richard Lewis and Kevin Nealon as comedy writers with families; and two fantasy-comedies for the Friday-night kid audience, Genie and Teen Angel, both produced by corporate parent Disney...

He and two other police officers from Montgomery County, Maryland, were trying to arrest a man strung out on angel dust when the suspect started kicking Ventura in the side and face, again and again and again.
