Everyone has known as much for years, of course; that was one of its charms-the small, endearing air of incompetence, of inadequacy that surrounded the characters. Now everyone on the staff except Ted Baxter, the anchorman with the mane of Eric Sevareid and the brain of a hamster, is fired. So ends the MTM show.
