     On Friday, the 27th of September, 1985, CBS's "new" series THE
TWILIGHT ZONE premiers with two half-hour stories.  The first is
"Shatterday", which is presumably an adaptation of Harlan Ellison's
terrific short story.  Knowing HE's reputation, he probably wrote the
teleplay (he of the three Writer's Guide awards for best teleplay of
the year).

     Yeah, yeah, yeah, I was the one who told you to keep an eye out
for the PBS adaptation of "Overdrawn at the Memory Bank", and look
what a turkey that turned out to be.  But I have faith that Ellison
will fight the good fight for freedom, justice, the Mutant way, and
good Story on the glass teat.
