At the fade, while the violins soar among the bomb bursts, the poor misunderstood playboy dies heroically...
...half, the network has been presenting them once a month or so. both in daytime hours and in the evening. In ratings, they have slaughtered everything from ABC's American Bandstand to CBS's Playhouse go. Their titles alone have been irresistible -"The Cold Woman," "The Glamour Trap," "The Trapped Housewife," "Change of Life." The program hires first-rate talent, too. such as Sylvia Sidney (menopause), Kim Hunter (frigidity) and Phyllis Thaxter (the trapped housewife-in real life, Thaxter is the wife of James Aubrey, president...
