Lear has made a career out of forcing Americans to laugh at their imperfections in such hits as All in the Family, Maude, Good Times and Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman. In All That Glitters Lear takes on his biggest subject: sexual habits and stereotypes. In everything but anatomy and dress, the women are men and the men are women. Out of that basic conceit flow-or, more precisely, meander-all jokes and situations. "Our premise is simple," explains Lear. "God created Eve first, took out her rib and gave her a companion so she wouldn't be lonely. This...
...Words uses no real names, but it is a documentary drama based on the 1975 Boston trial of Dr. Kenneth Edelin in which he was convicted of manslaughter for an abortion he had performed, a jury decision that was later reversed.

And tomorrow night Upstairs, Downstairs is coming over the tube at 9 p.m.-when you will have to be at a dinner downtown. This sort of problem is easily solved by the 50,000 U.S. owners of Tokyo-based Sony Corp.'s Betamax video-tape record-and-playback system (price: $1,300 list, about $1,000 at discount). The Betamax...
What turned these obscure provincial homicides into causes celebresl The answer seems to be that these crimes were responses to the social repressions of the age. On a deeper level, the crimes offered extreme solutions to extreme rages. The unconscious mind may be satisfied with nothing less. Hartman notes that female interest in the twelve cases was not "aberrant" but rather "an integral part of the fantasy experience of women of the [middle] class...
