...Friends on PBS. Grover (Josh Hamilton) doesn't want his girlfriend Jane (Olivia d'Abo) to go study in Prague--she'll "come back a bug." Max (Chris Eigeman), a guy so jaded that every new experience is deja vu, falls in with cheeky Kate (Cara Buono). Chet (Eric Stoltz) is a professional student, and Otis (the delightfully morose Carlos Jacott) apparently plans to make a career of losing. They all share an avocation: chatting. The young men, especially, are "media slaves," infomaniacs. Who would win, Freddy or Jason? Does BANKRUPT come up more often on Wheel of Fortune...

But before Angela (played by real-life teenager Claire Danes) arrives at this promising womanhood, she must cross the emotional hurdles of adolescence, and that passage is the subject of My So-Called Life, an unusually affecting one-hour drama that will make its debut Thursday...
...making the only real reference to the fact that the self-absorbed, whiny couple featured in Dan Algrant's latest film, "Naked in New York," is a product of, you guessed it--Harvard University. Oh yes, the producer (Tony Curtis) also finds an opportunity to ask why Jake (Eric Stoltz), the persecuted playwright, "has his ass in Cambridge instead of my office!" Poor Harvard is suffering a two-pronged movie attack from former student Alek Keshishian '83's latest depiction in "With Honors," and now from this movie...
