The detectives discover that a young junkie found dead in the yard of a day-care center was the daughter of a wealthy family. Further investigation reveals that the woman was taken to her final "resting place" as she was dying. The question: Is it possible that someone very close to the victim would have allowed her to perish in so ignominious a fashion? ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

1996  
 
Created by William Finkelstein of Civil Wars fame, the made-for-TV feature On Seventh Avenue was intended as the pilot for a weekly series. Wendy Makkena stars as Nadine Jacobs, the owner of a high-profile fashion business established by her father (played by actor-director Gene Saks). In order to keep her business afloat in a sea of cutthroat competitors, Nadine recklessly cuts several deals with a major investment firm--and with the Mob. In typical "pilot" fashion, the film ends with several loose plotlines still dangling and unresolved; guess we'll never know what happened now (sigh!) On Seventh Avenue was telecast by NBC on June 10, 1996. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Completing the extra room in his house ahead of schedule, Cliff (Bill Csoby) proudly presents the sumptuous new living space to his wife Clair (Phylicia Rashad)...who promptly moves in and refuses to leave! Upset that their mom has shut herself off from the rest of the family--or, as she puts it, "away from the people who think you were put on Earth to serve them"--the Huxtable kids devise all manner of strategies to lure her back outside. Meanwhile, Theo (Malcolm-Jamal Warner) is perplexed over his dad's apparent refusal to put up the Christmas tree lights. This episode was originally scheduled to air on December 12, 1991. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
