...Entry. By the numbers, at least, this forced separation has been a success. Since The Bionic Woman first appeared in mid-January it has become, along with ABC's sitcom Laverne and Shirley, the TV season's hottest late entry. Big with the bubble-gum crowd that also dotes on Lee Majors, it has also drawn a sizable adult audience stuck on Lindsay Wagner's sexy looks. Her show has consistently been among the top 15 in the ratings, although Majors' program often edges it out by a point...
...Piano. As a consequence-of his waist-not, want-not approach, Guérard today commands the hottest "piano" (as professional chefs call their stoves) in the trendy, fiercely competitive world of grande cuisine. After only 1% years of operation, the Restaurant Michel Guérard at the spa in Eugenie-les-Bains near Lourdes is about to receive a top rating of 19 points in this year's edition of the Guide Gault-Millau, France's sprightliest food publication. (The spa also has a gourmand menu for the calorie-careless.) The more conservative and authoritative Guide Michelin...
Since the state-wide legislation took effect five years ago, rent control has been one of the hottest issues in Cambridge. And with good reason. More than 60 per cent of households in the city come under the rent-control act. Fully a dozen tenant-and-general-interest groups claim rent control as a major, motivating issue the League of Women Voters, the Council of Elders, Citizens for Participation in Political Action, to mention a few, have all lent their support to the program--which controls some 22,000 units in Cambridge alone. Boston, which, like nearby Brookline, five years...
...Puff? The competition is hottest in presweetened cereals, which captured 31% of sales last year. Falling sugar prices are encouraging manufacturers to step up introductions of new brands: General Mills is bringing out Fruit Brutes, aiming to win kids away from Kellogg's Fruit Loops, and Ralston Purina is offering Fruity Freakies. Later this year Ralston will introduce Moonstones, a fruit-flavored cereal in crescent, star and sphere shapes, and Grins & Smiles & Giggles & Laughs, which (or so kids will be told) stream from the mouth of a "computer-type monster" named Cecil when his "funny bone" is tickled...
...fall with the courage of a man with little to lose. ABC'S strongest shows were tough cops-and-robbers epics (Streets of San Francisco, Baretta, S.W.A.T.). They could only be aired after the "family hour," from 8 to 9 p.m., when the networks schedule their hottest shows, usually comedies, hoping to capture an audience for the entire evening. Gambling that ABC could build an audience later in the evening, Pierce stripped in his proven dramatic shows throughout the week, and in the 10 p.m. shot spiced up such oldies as Marcus Welby, M.D. with infusions...
