...here's what you get for your trouble. The movie is attacked as "snuff TV" by the national trade paper Advertising Age; NBC is lambasted for contributing to the problem of TV violence; the show is even denounced sight unseen by a U.S. Senator (Democrat Kent Conrad of North Dakota). It's enough to drive a programmer back to Saved by the Bell: The College Years...
...suitably accoutered, Mei Yang seduces the wife of Kuen (Kent Chung), a brutal silk merchant. Humiliated, Kuen leaves the town and becomes a gardener in the house where Yuk Heung languishes. Mei Yang is taken in by a pair of lesbian cousins with a penchant for flutes, food and S&M.

...plan that predated the Jan. 6 attack in Detroit. Three of the arrested men -- Eckardt; hit man Shane Stant, 22; and getaway driver Derrick Smith, 29 -- have told investigators that during the final days of 1993, they conspired with Gillooly to attack Kerrigan while she trained at the Tony Kent Arena on Cape Cod, Massachusetts.

The calls, however, could have been made by Gillooly -- or even by Eckardt himself...

Jesus makes frequent guest appearances, and so do felt banners that parody the soppy semiabstract devotional art of the all-but-forgotten Sister Corita Kent, a liberal nun of the '60s. I AM USELESS TO THE CULTURE, BUT GOD LOVES ME, one of | Kelley's banners reads. He is as deeply immersed in the religious aura of his infancy, pre-Vatican II, as any Chicano postmodernist doing lurid Madonnas...
