On the Doctor Shows, Public Health Enemy No. 1
YOU know who I want to meet? the good doctor asks. The sick, twisted little bean counter who came up with the health maintenance organization. As a prickly but secretly noble physician who spouts outrageous truths, Ted Dansons John Becker is no more believable than the saintly Marcus Welby was. But here, in a promotional spot for the new CBS sitcom Becker, he sounds oddly realistic, echoing opinions heard more and more often, on and off television. Under the heading Becker on H.M.O.s, the harangue continues: You go in with a headache; they do a credit scan before a CAT scan. Need surgery? They biopsy your wallet. H.M.O.s, you know what H.M.O.s stand for? Have money or die. More astute than the labored series itself, the promo sounds a theme that medical dramas have also leaped on this season. Chicago Hope, E.R. and the new L.A. Doctors have all included more than one major story pointedly attacking H.M.O.s. The shows reflect the widespread image of H.M.O.s as faceless, heartless monoliths that would rather save a penny than save a life. On Chicago Hope, Dr. Aaron Shutt (Adam Arkin) runs into an H.M.O. representative who has been reviewing the doctors prescription for an expensive drug..

Bachelor No. 1 And the Birth Of Reality TV
AS the creator and host of The Gong Show, the late-70s phenomenon in which excruciatingly bad singers, dancers and novelty acts were hooted and gonged off the stage, Chuck Barris was at the height of his celebrity. In the imaginative film about his life, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, he is strolling by a pool on the grounds of the Playboy mansion when a beautiful naked swimmer recognizes him. Swimming toward him, she looks up seductively and purrs: I think youre the most insidious, despicable force in entertainment today. How dare you subject the rest of the world to your loathsome views of humanity, to mock some poor lonely people who are just craving a little attention in their lives? Youd think the poor guy had created Fear Factor, but no. As his dream of a sex-filled evening turns into a nightmare, the woman sarcastically sums up his career. Oh, yeah, you created The Dating Game, she says. Thats right up there with the Sistine Chapel..
