...long hole right in the middle of the program, which it chose to fill with innocuous studies of the British monarchy's past and future. At times, the severe White House restrictions on camera placement left viewers with the suspicion that the show had been staged by Andy Warhol. Finally, PBS could obviously do nothing about the choice of a tired and tedious Bob Hope and the Captain & Tennille, slicked-up country singers, as postprandial entertainment...
...Andy Warhol once predicted that "in the future everybody will be world famous for at least 15 minutes." That McLuhanesque pronouncement comes uncannily close to what is happening to the Democratic candidates in this political season. After shuffling through a dozen presidential contenders in the first 18 primaries, the party focused much of its attention last week on California Governor Jerry Brown. He singlemindedly pushed for maximum exposure in Maryland for three weeks, stirred enormous excitement among voters and gave Jimmy Carter his worst licking since the New York primary...

...weighty and old-masterly effects, and was never to regain the same energy. Vlaminck plummeted into coarse self-parody, Dufy tended more and more to crank out pretty little furniture-pictures, and Van Dongen simply fell apart, becoming-in his meaningless virtuosity and appeal to cafe society-an Andy Warhol with red corpuscles. The brief moment of Fauvism was over; naturally, since it was synonymous with youth itself...
