...Rome with Love (CBS) is the same sort of savorless trifle, with John Forsythe back to the laugh-packed responsibilities of bachelor fatherhood. In this, his third series, he plays a widowed history professor from Iowa who relocates with his three daughters in sunny, funny Italy.

After six hits in a row, the tantalizing question about Simon is: Can he ever write a flop...
Equally ascetic is Richard Russell, 71. The Georgia Democrat lives alone in a frugal one-bedroom apartment across from the sumptuous Watergate apartment-house complex. He breakfasts early at the Senate and works a twelve-hour day. A bachelor, Russell could dine at prestigious tables every night, but would rather go home to his favorite rocking chair. Says a friend: "Give him grits and a hamburger and he's happy...
