...press, the network aired failed series that were loved by critics. My series, Just Plain Canceled, would air really awful shows that bombed. I met with Kris Slava, vice president of acquisitions and scheduling, and gave him a list of shows I wanted to air: The Chevy Chase Show, My Mother the Car, Manimal, Pink Lady and Jeff and Mr. Smith, the 1983 NBC sitcom about an orangutan that ran a Washington think tank. Slava put a lot of work into looking into this and discovered that the freaks who owned Chevy Chase's talk show not only wanted...

The Messiah metaphors that helped make the first Terminator a superior entertainment are now just the givens: boy and girl in peril, with one protector and one implacable pursuer. At its metallic heart, T3 is another chase movie--one figure relentlessly tracking three others, mostly in cars, at high speed through implausibly underpopulated Los Angeles streets...
...Like a lot of Australians, visiting Noosa is a happy habit I formed as a teenage surfer?long before the town saw its first vegetarian caf? or yoga workshop. I would chase the waves north to the place where Pacific swells are transmuted into perfect point breaks along the many headlands and bays.
