This Television,feartul of being labeled an electronic dinosaurin the computer age,tries to stay means we viewers are bombarded with a bevy of electronic gizmos and programming ideas designed to make us feelin- volved. From WebTV,which brings the Net to your set, to game shows thatallow you to play along online, the keyword is “interactive.” Though interactive television has been around for a few years, if it's to have any significance for many of us,it would do far more than register how many viewers want to buy a vowel.

Their fighting wakes you up in the middle of the night, their kids and dogs are feral, and they drop garbage all over yourlawn. None of this is worth bothering thepolice over, but Judge Judy will be happy to issue an edict. Her approach is bound to ease the problem. You want to help your children with their homework: if only you had paid attention and leamed the rivers of the world, languages that begin with J and vice presidents’ wives.
