...network in a ratings slump. After some deep thought--and a Diane Sawyer--hosted Ritter tribute that won the nightly ratings--ABC decided to carry on, with Ritter's character dying and James Garner and Suzanne Pleshette guest-starring as the grandparents. "Ultimately," says ABC entertainment chairman Lloyd Braun, "we felt there were still great stories to tell." Sure: M*A*S*H told moving, even funny stories about death.

The IAAF dubbed her a "rising star" and a Swedish national radio poll even labeled her Swede of the Year. This year has been just as heady. In March she won the pentathlon at the World Indoor Championships in Birmingham, with personal bests...
...little more than six months away from the primaries. The real campaign will probably begin on Labor Day, but the Democratic field seems to have organized itself into three tiers. The bottom tier is the vanity candidacies: Al Sharpton, Dennis Kucinich, Carol Moseley Braun. The middle tier is serious candidates who have yet to catch fire: Joe Lieberman (despite high name recognition in the polls), John Edwards (despite financial support from his fellow trial lawyers and some creative speeches about specific issues) and Bob Graham. At the top are John Kerry, the party establishment's favorite; Dick Gephardt, the Midwest...
