...Number of hits in a game the Kansas City Royals must get for fans at Kauffman Stadium to win a dozen free doughnuts, in a Krispy Kreme promotion...
What's a doughnut without a good cup of coffee? That's what the makers of Krispy Kreme doughnuts have finally decided: they are now offering four blends of coffee--Smooth, Rich, Bold and Robust Decaf--both by the cup in their shops and in bags to take home. In an effort to create a coffee as addictive as its glazed treats, Krispy Kreme barrel-roasts all the blends daily in small batches.

Rules casts John Ritter as a suburban dad with two teen daughters (a hot one and a plain one), whose problems he solves in the pilot in two maudlin scenes. In one the plain daughter asks him, "Do you think I'm pretty?" and in the other he watches...
