Danzig Critiques New CBS Thursday Lineup
Fred Danzig reviews CBS TV Thursday offerings. Frontier Circus stagings lack cohesion though some animal performances attract. The Bob Cummings Show aims for vivacious glamour with weak dialogue. The Investigators, West Coast created, shows promise but relies on familiar formulas and uneven production.
Fred Astaire Skips Dance On TV Debut Series
Veteran actor Fred Astaire, 62, will appear in only two episodes of the Alcoa Premiere series, sticking to acting and not dancing. He says the show is not his alone and his name will not appear in the title to avoid mandatory appearances. He notes he will be seen weekly to attract viewers and that the project relies on ensemble effort rather than one star. The ABC program debuts Tuesday with Astaire contributing as a producer and actor while not performing a full musical segment.
