Indeed, Innerspace plays as if it were the hippest Martin-and-Lewis comedy. Tuck is the boozer-crooner-loverboy; Jack is the engaging, zany nerd. Both actors have nifty fun updating these roles. Quaid, flashing the satanic grin patented by Jack Nicholson, ensures that Tuck makes a convincing connection with a friend he cannot embrace until the end of the movie. And Short, late of SCTV and Saturday Night Live, is one deft darling. Jack begins as a wild paranoiac but soon straightens up and loosens up, especially in a maniacal boogie he performs to Sam Cooke's Twistin...
...Hoorah for Kelsey," one of two one-act plays that make up The War Years, appearing in the Kronauer Space of Adams House this weekend only.

Once upon a time -- Was it really just 20, 22 years ago? -- Liverpool seemed about the hippest place on earth.

...assault on longtime ratings champ Good Morning America at ABC, while the CBS Morning News continues to flounder with the abrupt departures of Anchors Bill Kurtis and, last week, Phyllis George. The Saturday-morning kidvid schedule remains No. 1. Carson is still king of late-night, and Letterman the hippest of clown princes. Only daytime is a slum for profits when it could be a gold mine; ABC's supremacy with its afternoon soaps helps it lead NBC in total network profits, despite the tailspin ABC has taken in the evening. Recently, NBC's afternoon schedule has begun to mimic...
...year after its debut on NBC, Miami Vice, TV's hottest and hippest new cop show, is reaching a high sizzle. Scheduled on Friday nights opposite CBS's popular Falcon Crest, the show languished in the bottom half of the Nielsens for its first few months on the air. But viewers gradually began to take notice of its high-gloss visual style and MTV-inspired use of rock music, its gritty South Florida ambience and the cool charisma of Don Johnson and Philip Michael Thomas, who star as Miami Detectives Sonny Crockett and Ricardo Tubbs.
