Wu's TV Corner #42: FM

1990 NBC. "Sex, Lies, & 35mm Slides." Robert Hays, Patricia Richardson, DeLane Matthews, Leo Geter, Lynne Thigpen, John Kassir, James Avery, Fred Applegate, Rainbow Harvest, Nicole Huntington. Some of the same cast from creator Allan Burns' previous show, Eisenhower & Lutz. Robert Hays works for a public radio station and his ex-wife is Patricia Richardson. She is now back in his life working at the same station and they have a teenaged daughter.

Ted catches Lee-Ann's new man Jonathan (Jack Bannon) in a compromising position with another woman and doesn't know if he should keep his mouth shut or come clean. The B story is Daryl (Rainbow Harvest) had some sexy pictures taken by a photographer but she can't decide which slide to have blown up. "This looks pretty good." "My eyes are crossed in that one." "Eyes?"

I give FM a B minus. Shut it. Good cast. Fair to middling sitcom. This show began as a summer series in 1989 and then came back in 1990 as a midseason replacement. That is not an ideal situation and it only lasted thirteen episodes.
