Check out Shelley Long's series of the same name Wednesdays on CBS before the network pulls the proverbial plug on it The series which stars Long as Dr Susan DeRuzza a albeit recently divorced rnaniage counselor has been around for quite some time Unfortunately it has never quite gotten the break it needs to catch on as a bona fide network regular with problems in preproduction the highly likeable series has run the gamut of woes Beginning it was announced as a replacement for CBS in the fall of 1992 "On CBS there were and are so few good slots" Long explains "because they have so many successful hour-lon- g shows And in fact now they have even more successful hourlong shows "So there aren't very many slots on CBS And good half-howe were hoping that if somebody dropped out it would be a better slot than was available when it was agreed that we would go on the air" This decision left the ditior open for executive producer Danny Jacobson to begin work on an other series that was in its formative stages the then fledgling (and now highly successful) NBC sitcom "Mad About You" "Unfortunately as a result of that decision" Long states "Danny started the other show first It worked out well for 'Mad About You' but unfortunately we experienced lust some strange things "(Things like) a staff that didn't get along which he was unable to ameliorate When you can't start off on a good foot it's hard" "Then of course" Long continues "he couldn't write the whole show We had an order for 13 (episodes) and he was able to do six and still do the 'Mad About You' series And then he was burned out He admitted it" So the show eventually made its way into the Monday night slot following network behemoth "Murphy Brown" which according to Long is "what the show was developed for" And it did "remarkably well" in that time slot "And that's the frustration" Long adds "That there's a level of sophistication about the show so that it doesn't fit every place But naturally everyone wants the slot after 'Murphy Brown' "But every time we've been in that slot with the 'Murphy Brown' lead-i- n we've done very well In fact recently we did better (in that slot) than anyone has done since 1991" So while the show hasn't been renewed for the CBS fall lineup there is still some talk about bringing it back as a replacement again 'There's still a lot of enthusiasm and optimism about the show" Long states 'We're not on the fall lineup but we're not dead in the water either The cast members have been released from the contracts but everybody is ready to go and excited about doing the show So we lust have to see if CBS can find a place for us that makes sense that's right for our Betty White never played a housewife named Gladys I suspect you're thinking of "Pete and Gladys" an early '60s sitcom starCara Wiring White look-alik- e lliams I would say it is a long shot for new life in syndication 0: Are there any members of TVPIPELINE By Taylor Michaels 0: Where can we write David Hyde Pierce of "Frasier"?
