Study Bill Clinton working a rope line. Greedily, avidly, his long, curiously angled fingers reach deep into the crowd to make the touch, an image that in my mind has some cartoonist's kinship to Michelangelo's Adam on the Sistine Chapel ceiling. Lyndon Johnson pressed flesh with the same gluttonous physicality, wading into the human surf, clawing and pawing into the democratic mass with an appetite amazing, alarming...
What Greed's viewers will see is not exactly the show Clark originally had in mind. Assembling two Hollywood game-show veterans--Bob Boden, a producer of the syndicated Family Feud, and Jeff Mirkin, whose credits include Love Connection and Studs--Clark outlined a quiz format that would involve group participation and a share-the-wealth ethos.

She keeps urging Lin to divorce his wife, and every year he goes back to his village and tries to do so. And every year Shuyu agrees to his request but then changes her mind when they appear before the local judge. Without her consent, Lin is stymied: "It would make no sense to anybody in the countryside if Lin said he wanted to divorce his wife because he didn't love her. He had to find a real fault in her, which he couldn...
