...studios have achieved p.r. symbiosis with a newly sanitized New York City, the family-friendly Big Candy Apple--imagine Charles Gibson and Diane Sawyer as hosts of GMA from Times Square's porno paradise of a few years ago--and despite its already jammed sidewalks, the city has welcomed the cameras (the networks provide security to help control crowds). Friedman, who conceived Today's studio when he was its executive producer, even gives the show partial credit for the city's image turnaround, and his successor, Jeff Zucker, calls it "probably the best daily advertisement for the city...

Consider. A man breaks up with his new lover, deciding that he prefers his porno tapes to her ("I've only known you for a few weeks. But I've been involved with some of those women for years!").

...like The Postman. He's had more than a few flings with TV. (Who could forget the immortal My Two Dads?) But The Mod Squad is his first experience with a movie made from a TV show. His approach? Take it all very seriously. "Even if I do a porno movie, I want it to be profound," he says. But he and co-stars CLAIRE DANES and OMAR EPPS, left, have their work cut out for them if they want profundity from a remake of The Mod Squad, one of the most delightfully cheesy shows ever to grace our blinking...
