I got another letter from a TV lover in need. Unfortunately, I have no memories of the show being described. If any of you can help out, please do.
"I remember a show that came on TV when I was a kid. Most memories are mid to late 80s. I can't remember the first half, but for the last 5 minutes of so of every show, the host, an elderly gentleman, would go draw on a large sheet of orange paper the size of a freestanding revolving chalkboard. "

It's that time of the year. People are being cast in pilots left and right and some interesting stuff has
been announced. At ABC, Christopher Titus (
Titus) has landed one of the lead roles in an untitled project from Warner Bros. The show focuses on CEOs and also stars Dylan McDermott (
The Practice) and Michael Vartan (
Alias). McDermott and Vartan as CEOs is an easy sell. But Christopher Titus, Senior VP Harvard graduate? That's different, and something I look forward to checking out.
Carrie-Anne Moss (
The Matrix) is set to star in ABC's
Suspect. The show is a procedural that will solve crimes by tracking suspects through a lineup. She's joined by Eric Palladino (
ER) and Kathleen Munroe (
Beautiful People). The ABC track record for procedurals is less than impressive, but the addition of Guy Ritchie (
Snatch) as director is intriguing enough to give this one a look.
