369.2Almost Perfect 8:30 SundayPCBUOA::LPIERCEDo the watermelon crawlTue Jun 27 1995 19:4432
		ALMOST PERFECT 8:30 Sudnay

Two successful overachievers accidentally meet and fall in love.  Now they 
simply have to figure out a way to be in the same room at the same time! 
Kim Cooper is almost perfect -- attractive, ambitious and talented. She's 
the only female writer on television's hottest cop show, holding her own 
with co-writers Gary, Rob and Neal. But when her executive producer boss 
is dragged out in a straitjacket, Kim is tapped for the big job! So why, 
on the very night of her promotion, is she drinking alone in a bar? Mike 
Ryan is also attractive, ambitious and talented.  He's in the crime 
business, too -- a district attorney whose life plays out much like 
Kim's cop show, only for real. He also happens to be drinking alone -- 
in the same bar, on the same night.

Maybe it's coincidence. Maybe it's fate. Maybe it's because they both 
think the term "sucking chest wound" is sexy. But if there's a way to 
combine the worlds of "real" and "reel" crime--and have a meaningful
relationship -- these two will find it. Can a couple of workaholic 
control freaks fall in love and make a go of it? Only if they stop 
answering their beepers.

		CAN'T HURRY LOVE - Monday 8:30

What are friendship, love and especially dating like in the Nineties for 
the twenties set? That's what this new big-city comedy looks and laughs 
at. At 28, Annie O'Donnell, an upwardly mobile placement coordinator at a 
New York City personnel agency, has spent most of her dating life 
kissing many frogs in her search for a prince. Her best friend and 
next-door neighbor, Didi, frequently offers advice -- solicited or not 
-- on everything from the outgoing message on her answering machine to 
how far Annie should go on a first date. Roger, Annie's endearing albeit 
socially unpolished co-worker, is also in search of the perfect mate, 
although most of his "cool" dates can be found dancing topless in a 
cocktail bar or riding New York's mass transit system. 

Elliot, another agency co-worker and friend, is happily married and so 
has trouble keeping up with the list of do's and don'ts for dating in 
this decade. Together, the young foursome braves the ups and downs of 
love and romance, offering one another advice, but mostly adding support 
and humor to what seems to be an endless string of dating dilemmas.

		IF NOT FOR YOU - monday 9:30

What happens if your "intended" isn't who you intended it to be? That's 
the idea behind this romantic comedy about two young lovers in love with 
the wrong people. Jessie Kent, who mediates arguments for a living, is
engaged to Elliott Gordon, a terminally unhappy architect whose idea of a
good time is obsessing over the fat content of foods. Craig Schaeffer, a
music producer, is engaged to one of his most neurotic recording artists.
When Jessie and Craig lock eyes for the first time at a neighborhood
Chinese restaurant, they suddenly realize what their lives have been 
missing: each other.

				MATT WATERS - tues 8:00

"You wake up. Your stomach hurts. It's Monday, a school day. There's
this girl. You're obsessed with her but you haven't said a word. You know
there's going to be a fight on the playground. You really don't want to
know what's going on in the bathrooms. There's a party and everybody
else is going but you. You made the team -- but the team's a loser. Well,
it's time to go. Got to get an education. Besides, you're the teacher."

Matt Waters is a hard-boiled, 20-year Navy veteran who teaches science at 
Chicago's Central Tech High School. His methods can sometimes be more 
akin to shock tactics than instruction.

But that's only because he's learned the hard way how difficult it is to 
get his students' attention in this inner-city war zone, where 
illiteracy, drugs, street gangs and teenaged pregnancy are formidable 
enemies. In his passionate effort to reach his kids, Matt learns as much 
as teaches.  Matt Waters speaks to young people and their families about 
contemporary concerns and feelings. It stars Montel Williams in his 
dramatic-series debut.

			BLESS THIS HOUSE - Wed 8:00

Andrew Clay and Oscar nominee Cathy Moriarty (Raging Bull) star as Burt 
and Alice Clayton, a rough-around-the-edges working-class couple with 
attitude. Lifelong renters with big dreams, the Claytons want a house of 
their own. One problem: they're still paying off that new wide-mouth 
toaster. Burt's a postal worker (but only slightly disgruntled); Alice is 
a humble cashier at a fancy car dealership. So the house will have to wait. If Burt and Alice are 
great at arguing -- about everything! -- they're even better at making 
up when the fight's ove

Between bouts, Burt bowls with his pal Lenny and the guys and Alice 
plays poker with Lenny's wife, Phyllis, and the girls. The one thing the 
battling Claytons always agree on is their love for each other and for 
their children--twelve-year-old daughter Danny and seven-year-old son
Sean--even though the kids have picked up a few bad habits from their 
parents.

		CENTRAL PARK WEST - wed 8:00

This contemporary drama from the creator of Melrose Place and
Beverly Hills 90210 is about a cross section of young New Yorkers,
the newly arrived and the natives, whose lives play out with the same
intensity that drives the city.

The magnetic Peter Fairchild is the privileged son of a powerful New York 
family. His newsworthy endeavors as district attorney are often 
overshadowed by lesser ones that feed the gossip columns--case in point, 
his burgeoning love affair with tabloid journalist Alex Bartoli.
Stephanie Wells is a recent emigre to New York, here to take over as 
editor-in-chief of the slick

monthly magazine Communique. Stephanie's been given two immediate tasks: 
overhaul the publication and fire its difficult nightlife columnist 
Carrie Fairchild, whose mother Linda Fairchild-Rush is remarried--to 
Stephanie's boss, the publisher. Carrie, clearly not the golden
child her brother Peter is, has developed the survival instincts of a 
snake. She fights back by trying to seduce Stephanie's husband, 
Mark Merrill, a school teacher who is rendered vulnerable
by a scandal that keeps coming back to haunt him.

Nikki Sheridan, a Soho gallery owner and Fairchild family friend, often 
finds herself an unwittingly ally in Carrie's devilish exploits. Peter's 
friend Gil Chase, a stockbroker with questionable scruples, thinks ending 
relationships by E-mail is an effective use of the information
superhighway.

		Courthouse - wed 10:00

This explosive drama follows the lives of the judges, lawyers and staff at 
a big-city courthouse, dedicated legal professionals struggling to 
administer justice in a system ever on the brink of chaos. Justine 
Parkes: Tough and sexy, the courthouse's presiding judge fights to keep 
the system working in a decaying building while plagued by shrinking 
budgets and overcrowded calendars. Wyatt E. Jackson: This new Criminal 
Court judge is fresh from Montana, and his maverick sense of justice 
clashes with Justine's, giving off sparks of conflict--and attraction. 
Rosetta Reide: Juvenile Court judge, single mother and Justine's closest 
friend. Edison Moore: young and very ambitious prosecuting attorney. 
Lenore Laderman: sheltered novice attorney who finds herself transferred
to the sex crimes unit, where she is confronted by the parade of suspects 
and victims, a test of her courage and resolve. Suzanne Graham: public 
defender who champions the system's poor and powerless, passionately at 
odds with prosecutor Moore in court and caught up in a steamy love affair 
with him outside of it. Homer Conklin: Criminal Court judge who rules with 
rigid authority. Myron Winkelman: self-centered Family Court judge.

THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS


Tuesdays (9:30-10 p.m. ET) on NBC-TV

From the Emmy-winning producers of "Frasier," "Wings" and "Cheers"
comes this Chicago-based, ensemble comedy focusing on the life and times
and folks surrounding Steve Rutledge (Tom Amandes, "The Untouchables"),
an idealistic lawyer in his late 30s who once dreamed of making a difference
in the world, but now must balance that with the concept of making a living.

The people creating changes in Steve's life include his career-minded wife,
Macenzie (Melinda McGraw, "The Commish"), whose job loss forces him
to take on clients based solely on his need to make ends meet. His
scatterbrained brother-in-law, Larry (Larry Miller, "Pretty Woman"), needs
a new place to live, and moves in with Steve and Mac, bringing his hapless,
accident- prone nature to their home.

At work, Steve and his best friend and fellow attorney, Alex (Brad Garrett,
"Casper"), share, Jean (Meredith Scott Lynn, "The Marshall Chronicles"), a
receptionist with an "in-your-face" attitude. Speaking of sharing, Alex has
also decided to complicate his longstanding relationship with Steve by
revealing surprising news of a personal nature.

eve's beloved, feisty grandmother Eleanor Rutledge or "Gram" (Maxine
Stuart, "NYPD Blue"), who resides in an active senior retirement community,
turns out to be the one person who has him best figured out.

"The Pursuit of Happiness" is from Grub Street Productions in association
with Paramount Network Television. It was developed for television by
Emmy winners David Angell, Peter Casey and David Lee ("Frasier,"
"Wings," "Cheers"). Dave Hackel ("Wings") is the executive producer and
writer.

Subject: fall grids, plain text
 
Here are grids for the new prime-time network schedules, in plain text (you
don't need a PostScript printer or the very latest web browser) formatted to
seventy-nine columns (you don't need an unusually wide screen).
 
These are the *regular* weekly time slots to the best of my knowledge as of
this evening.  Special premiere or preview presentations may be scheduled at
different times, and of course series may be shuffled temporarily or perma-
nently at any time.
 
Sunday's schedule is divided into two grids to fit the format because it is
four hours long.  All other nights are in one grid each.
