...also known as "First Person Singular") as a nine-week summer re-placement in the Lux slot, Monday nights from 9 to 10 on CBS. So they scurried for a property, chose Bram Stoker?s epistolary novel "Dracula" and, in an all - night cut - and - paste session at Reuben?s Deli, assembled the adaptation. The pressure isn?t evident in the show, but the furious energy is. From the first minutes, which turned Jonathan Harker?s trip to Castle Dracula into a symphony of thun-der, horses? hooves and whinnies, shouting villagers, shrieking carriage springs and the baying of wolves...
Hyde was on such a lucky streak. So this is where we tell you how disillusioned she was by the moviemaking process. It's true that Reuben, the black one-eyed Vietnam vet in the book, became the white burn victim Eugene in the movie (first choice Denzel Washington was busy); that scriptwriter Leslie Dixon (Mrs. Doubtfire, The Thomas Crown Affair) fiddled with characters; that Leder moved the setting from Atascadero, Calif., to Las Vegas. ("I thought the land of lost hopes and lost dreams was the place for this movie," she says.) But Hyde shrugs off the changes...

...with it, a strong chance of intergenerational conflict. "Watch for tension to increase among generations as the boomers enter their late 50s," says Dr. David Reuben, who heads the geriatrics division at the UCLA School of Medicine. Noting that "it costs between $35,000 and $50,000 a year [to support] one person in a nursing facility," a strapped nation will, Reuben concludes, have to choose between caring for its children or its parents. Have you ever noticed how the elderly in your town vote when a proposal to raise property taxes to pay for education hits the local ballot...
...cast keeps finding strange reasons to leave the top-rated series. First, Sherry Stringfield (Dr. Susan Lewis) quit acting for a "normal life." Then George Clooney (Dr. Doug Ross) checked out to make movies with Nicole Kidman and Jennifer Lopez. (O.K., that's not so strange.) Now GLORIA REUBEN, who plays ailing physician's assistant Jeanie Boulet, has declared she will be leaving after this season's first few episodes to hit the road as a backup singer and dancer for Tina Turner.
