This is a weak attempt by director and co-writer Romano Vanderbes to satirize middle America's standard news broadcasts with as many jokes about sex as possible. The featured station is KSEX and Doug Ballard and Lydia Mahan play the anchors in a broadcast where blue does not mean melancholy. Aside from parodies of overplayed TV commercials and stereotyped co-anchor dialogue, Vanderbes has also excerpted segments from newsreels and other real footage that take on unintended meanings when seen out of context. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Bob Morrison (Joe Brooks) composes jingles on Madison Avenue for television ads. He has carried a torch for Jennifer Corly (Shelley Hack) since their college days, so that when he meets her again, he is compelled once again to try to woo her. Look for columnist/author Jimmy Breslin's surprisingly good performance in a cameo role. Songs in this musical include "If Ever I See You Again". Producer/director/screenwriter/songwriter/actor Joe Brooks is best known for his hit song "You Light Up My Life". ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi
