New fall shows spice up Wednesday nights

By Lou Scerra | September 23, 1998

Surprisingly enough, there will be other things on television this fall besides navy blue dresses, cigars as sex toys and exact definitions of "sexual relations." And if you happen to have cable ... Accusations of perjury in the White House scandal have certainly turned television sets on, but will Americans leave them on after the evening news to see what is or is not ready for prime-time? Those who have been interested in the more steamy details released in the past few weeks might be inclined to start their tube watching Wednesday's lineup which is packed with attractive casts and passion-filled nights ahead. The most talked-about young drama on TV last season, WB's "Dawson Creek" returns for its second season, this time pitted directly against the original young drama, "Beverly Hills, 90210" which features the return of Luke Perry. "Party of Five" returns in its normal 9:00 time slot taking on 90210 grad Shannen Doherty and her new WB show "Charmed." Doherty and Alyssa Milano are two of three sisters who realize they have magical powers in what will attempt to be a sexier version of "Sabrina, the Teenage Witch." The October 7 showdown between Fox and WB promises to force teenagers to pull out their hair or at the very least pull out their VCRs. Wednesday will also see "NewsRadio" attempt to recover from the death of Phil Hartman as "Saturday Night Live" buddy Jon Lovitz steps in to play a more romantically involved Max Lewis, WNYX's new anchor.

Wally Lamb's latest book comes undone

By Randi Barnes | August 21, 1998

Dominick Birdsey, the narrator of this lengthy tale, is a floundering man dealing with the schizophrenia of his twin brother, Thomas.
