And here too, representing the not so tormented, not so still-living-in-James-Dean's-shadow side of stardom, we find Tori Spelling. She bounces in on top of a pair of bright-orange platform flip-flops, plastic daisies affixed to their toe straps.

Married...With Children? A made-for-TV movie starring Tori Spelling as a hooker?) The medium--and America--has patently come a long way from the 1952-53 season, when the cast of I Love Lucy couldn't utter the word pregnant during Little Ricky's gestation period, or 1965 when, a year after network TV got its first double...
