...turns up on Paris' doorstep with a tale of woe involving a missing business partner, a mysterious woman, detectives on his trail, truckloads of contraband watermelons...well, there's no point trying to explain it all. Mosley's plots are complicated to the point of near incomprehensibility. (Much like Chandler's. Ever try to summarize the plot of The Big Sleep? Don't bother; it can't be done.) But the result isn't frustrating, it's hypnotic: Fear Itself is a seedy, ever receding labyrinth of petty deceptions, dark desires and unspeakable deeds, with a murderer crouched...
...comfy Friends time slot, Thursdays at 8 p.m. E.T. Joey won't be going on his own: the three executive producers who created Friends will be there for him too. The title of the show? Joey. This must be after they rejected How You Doin'? and Joey Loves Chandler...
Chatuchak will deter even the most confident shopper, so reliable intelligence is a must. Before venturing into the labyrinth, make an investment in the quirky, illustrated map of Bangkok by Nancy Chandler.

Each show enjoys high ratings and bounteous ads. Perversely, this may be bad for Kingpin, because, let's face it, when a network bravely admits that a new show may be too dangerous for TV, the danger is precisely the selling point...
Mostly, I hate their apartments. They’re huge! And they never work and buy really expensive clothes, especially Rachel. The whole Monica-Chandler interaction is also completely bogus. The plots are all so far-fetched, and the punchline of every joke is some trite remark about Phoebe’s flightiness or Joey’s womanizing. The fact that they all sleep with each other and act like it’s no big deal is also a little strange. And why do Ross and Rachel keep getting back together? Could it be that they?...
