...meant to take her problems more seriously than George Costanza's. "Ally McBeal is a mess. She's like a little animal," notes Nancy Friday, a sex-positive feminist if ever there was one. "You want to put her on a leash." And what does Ally's creator David Kelley have to say about Ally as a feminist? "She's not a hard, strident feminist out of the '60s and '70s. She's all for women's rights, but she doesn't want to lead the charge at her own emotional expense." Ally, though, is in charge of nothing, least...
...Files fans--or X-philes, to be annoying--are double sufferers.

With every advance in technology, art and entertainment--its cuter, more popular sister--change in radical, unpredictable ways. And at each turn they become more democratic, more accessible. The printing press starts with Bibles and ends up with pulp fiction. Radio popularizes rock 'n' roll. TV spawns the sitcom. Now consider the possibilities that will open up as the computer meets the Net--not the network of today, with piddly, slow connections that...
