What the show demonstrates, however, is that art theory plus craft does not equal art. Each of Kupka's major works is hung so that it is prefaced by a group of his preparatory line and color studies.

Many viewers apparently agreed with the message, and Dole caught up with Roy in the polls. The spots, Roy grudgingly concedes, have "to a degree turned Dole into a Watergate martyr or hero...
