OBSOLETE SHEET: What to Watch!
A selective peek at the upcoming TV season:
(Consult your local listings for specific showtimes)
Thanks – I’m Welcome!
(Sunday, ABC)
It’s after the Apocalypse, but Chuck Heston’s got nothing on funnyman Rich Little as the Last Man on Earth. Tune in each week as he goes slowly insane trying to order a meal, pretending to be stuck in traffic while listening to his own impressions, and fending off the flesh-eating undead.*
Robots-at-Law
(Monday, NBC)
In the Near-Future, the hard-hitting android attorneys at the class action firm LX32, Zt1P & Stein take no guff while standing up for the little guy. Who says a microchip can’t cry?
The Hoover Files
(Tuesday, CBS)
Legendary FBI honcho J. Edgar Hoover hits the streets in this hard-hitting Stephen J. Cannell action series based on the agency’s actual case files of notable Americans. Ep. 1: The Frisky Fed infiltrates lefty actor Paul Newman’s weekend fondue social, and crashes a ‘stag beach party’ in Key West to nail ‘light-in-the-loafers’ crooner Jim Nabors.
Sanford Forever
(Wednesday, NBC)
Yep- It’s finally happened. Crusty junkman Fred Sanford (Redd Foxx) has croaked and reunited with his beloved wife ‘Lizbeth’ in the afterlife. Their son Lamont has joined the LAPD, and together they tackle nasty ghetto crime with some help from some ‘not so divine’ intervention!
That’s Improbable!
(Thursday, ABC)
Shrug in mild amazement each week as the show scours this great nation to bring you the notable achievements of everyday Americans, such as the oldest grocery bagger or most efficient postman - then slowly fall asleep.
TJ & The Dragon
(Friday, CBS)
Trucker Tony Danza drives the big rigs coast-to-coast, along with his trusty companion Kato, the Komodo Dragon. The pair gets into some scrapes but has some good-time guffaws along the way.
It’s Ziggy!
(Saturday, NBC)
Everyone’s favorite sad little nebbish jumps straight from the Sunday funnies to his own show. Each show consists of a 20 min. still shot of that week’s hilarious single-panel cartoon, interspersed with special messages from sponsor Prozac.
T-Court
(In Syndication)
It’s T-Court, Fool! 3rd Circ. Mag. Judge Mr. T presides in a small-claims courtroom, hearing the gripes of Joe Six-Packs and Judy Punch-Clocks just like you & me. Only he can decide which fools to pity most.
*Soon to be a Major Motion Picture starring Steve Carrell
