Masterpiece Theater embraces a new look for season opener
Baltimore Sun reviewer Bill Carter notes Masterpiece Theater reshapes itself amid changing video norms. The Australian produced A Town Like Alice opens the season, filmed on color film rather than videotape, with Alistair Cooke relocated to an Asian hut. The shift signals broader PBS and Mobil Oil driven changes in sourcing and presentation.
