LnJLsLjviLs and PROGRAMMED by PETE MILLER Much has been said and writ written ¬ ten about the effect television is having on the younger genera generation ¬ tion By young I dont mean the teeny boppers who obviously dont watch Brylcream commer commercials ¬ cials but the pre schoolers I had a graphic illustration as to how much the four-year-old mind absorbs from the idiot tube when I made the mistake of being trapped in the same car for twelve hours wlthMlchaelaskinny little kid with rectangular eyes Almost every word he spoke during his waking hours on that slow trip to Vancouver was re related ¬ lated to television And when he arrived at the coast the poor boy was almost beside himself when he found out that there were seven chan channels ¬ nels get that seven to choose between He nearly had a ner nervous ¬ vous breakdown And our conversation in the car during the return trip was even more influenced by a two day commercial bombardment We never stopped for gas We had to Turn In at the sign of the big you-know-what He amused for a while until the kid got obnoxious the wait waitress ¬ ress with his rendition of Hoy Hey Were the monkeys I couldnt buy a milkshake It had to be a Great Shakes Great Shakes And we werent going fast enough by Route 66 stand standards ¬ ards Every three or four minutes on the way back he asked If Frankenstein Junior and the Impossibles would be on when we got home If not he explain explained ¬ ed hed settle for DugsBunny or Lost in Space The fact that we didnt hit Prince George until 2 am didnt seem to bother him Madison Avenue is brainwash brainwashing ¬ ing our children while their minds can still be bent Why else would a four-year-old boy order Pepsi Cola when hes been drinking Coke all his short life Maybe he doesnt want to be left out of the new generation This is all fine with me I dont mind my kid growing up to be a teenage television set All I ask Is a way to switch him off as easily as he Is turn turned ¬ ed on mm SPURNED TORONTO CP Actress Kate Reld says sadly that in international ¬ ternational success hasnt made her a sought after star in her own home town Despite Broadway hits in Whos Afraid of Virginia Woolf and Dylan and star billing In Hollywoods This Property 1s Condemned she hasnt had a r single genuine offer to appear In a Toronto production in five years The fact that the 36-year-old actress appeared at the Play Playhouse ¬ house Theatre here in mid-December in The Subject is Roses doesnt count Roses is a pro production ¬ duction fjom Ottawa where It ran with great success She accepted the Ottawa of offer ¬ fer just because they asked me Winnipeg Charlottetown and the Stratford Festival ask asked ¬ ed too and she was delighted to accept But not Toronto I really want to work here Miss Reids main problem in c itizn r s i HBj fag Uj w IBB J Ji The shrew is still untamed in this scene from the CBC TV Festival production of Shakespeares The Taming of the Shrew which stars Susan Clark as Katherina versus David Buck as Petruchio The 90 minute TV adaptation of the classic comedy produced and directed by Mario Prizek will be telecast on Wednesday January 11 Toronto she says is the lal lacy that once youve done well somewhere else like Broadway youll outprice yourself In my case that simply Isnt true Ill take what the traffic will bear of course but I dont hold people up I dont act for monetary reasons Kate Reld says finding work is no problem Right now her main worry is trying to choose among various stage television and movie offers An ong them Is one from an English producer Perhaps I should go to England I havent been there for seven or eight years But there are other plays other TV offers from Hollywood and a chance to do a film In Canada Its so hard to decide she says admitting that the failure of her latest Broadway venture Tennessee Williams Slapstick Comedy unnerved her I really wanted to do that It was gone In a week But then most Broadway actors go tlough this all the time Theyre lucky to have a hit once every five years I had two in four years Despite the theatrical cold shoulder she receives here Tor onto has remained home I like it here and I want to be with my children Reid 11 Robin 8 two dogs two cats and a large comfort comfortable ¬ able home in fashionable Rose dale are Miss Reids element We used to live In rented places but It simply wasnt any good for the children Children should have a place where they know where their toys and books are Except for the 10 -month Broadway run of Dylan she has always commuted to Toronto whenever she was
