...that, the beefy Ordner (order keepers) at N.P.D. rallies remind all too many Germans of Nazi storm troopers. The party's platform appeals not only to German self-pity but also to glories of another time. Von Thadden tells Germans there is no reason to feel guilty, to "beat ourselves with the past." He advocates German reunification, a greater German voice in NATO, and tough measures against criminals and protesters. The N.P.D.'s slogan: "Security Through Law and Order."

NBC's The Debbie Reynolds Show, for example, is an instant rerun of I Love Lucy, and small wonder; it is the handiwork of Lucy Producer Jess Oppenheimer. The only reason Debbie doesn't scheme to get into show business like her husband is that Debbie's husband Lew (Don Chastain) happens to be in the newspaper business. The only reason Debbie does not pose as a drummer auditioning for a band is that she happens to be posing...
