...supporting players are no less tacky. The pouty Michelle Phillips, as the ship's social director, wears so many silly getups that one might think ABC is trying to trick viewers into thinking that she is Cher. The blow-dried Chad Everett (Medical Center) is cast as a Pulitzer-prizewinning author who wears what appears to be a Pulitzer Prize medal on a gold chain around his neck. There are real French actors in the cast - Marie-France Pisier, Louis Jourdan - as well as ersatz French men like James Coco. Brooklynese is provided by Shelley Winters, who seems...
...Taos appear to be in the same time zone. The Festivale, though described as "very chic, very in, very high style," looks like a floating Ramada Inn. The script is a graveyard of unintentional boners. In one particularly cross moment, Savalas snarls, "Am I a fool? Do you think I talk just to hear my head rattle?"

When the comet's "splinters" finally hit earth, wiping out a Swiss ski resort and a drive-in theater in Pisa, all Meteor can sum mon up is a few flashes of red light and some whoosh noises...
...Fight'... We desperately need a contest." That answer doesn't satisfy New York's Lieutenant Governor Mario M. Cuomo, a Carter Seib of the Post supporter. He accuses the press of being "in love with Ted Kennedy" and adds: "Jimmy Carter is a bore, and I think the media cannot tolerate a bore. That's not the way to pick a President...
