...Procaccino's self-serving criteria, he has more in common with the common man than either Marchi or Lindsay. Marchi's parents were Italian immigrants also, but of slightly higher standing than Mario's. Marchi's father came...
...Governor and J.J. is CBS's instant rerun of Slattery's People, with overtones of My Little Margie. It is heartwarming only for its familiarity: Dan Dailey is not only a struggling public servant, but also a widowed and overweight father who must bridge the chasm between himself and his 23-year-old daughter J.J.

"A sort of agnosticism sweetened by hymns," as Muggeridge puts it, adding that there is more "Methodism than Marxism" in the British Labor Party. This chapel heritage enables him to update Calvin, Knox, Cotton Mather, Praise-God Barebone, and all scourgers of the flesh since St. Paul. Anglican bishops, priests and politicians of every stripe feel his lash, as well as all persons seeking happiness...
