...move to strengthen its weak showing in the Sunday-night ratings, CBS announced that it would drop two situation comedies, The Sandy Duncan Show and Anna and the King, a handsome but rather tired nonmusical rehash of The King and I. In their place the network laid on a private-eye show starring Buddy Ebsen, who played the daddy in The Beverly Hillbillies, a CBS staple several seasons...
...behalf of 20 million gay women and men in America, many of whom- until now- have been TIME readers, I take strong objection to your review of the film Heat [Oct. 16], which was described by Jay Cocks as "a faggot rehash of Sunset Boulevard."

The film was made by the Andy Warhol epigone Paul Morrissey, who, like his master, exploits the sorry selection of freaks who have been recruited for the cast. Thus the audience is invited to have a good laugh at the gargoyle visage of Miles, chortle over Dallesandro's near-autistic blankness, and revel in the antics of an obese motel owner, and a schizophrenic lesbian. The lazy profanity and the grungy, grim...
