Please, the powers that be was taped before the election with *** plot that deals with the new president. So producer Norman Lear and Star John Forsyth told me via satellite, they took *** gamble. We went with the polls, the polls told us, you know, I think all of them at the time were reading the Clintons. So we went with that. Then of course, as soon as we started to make the show, we're in production and John and the others were in rehearsal, you remember that 34 day period when the polls started to narrow, the race started to narrow and it looked like we might become the, the Thomas E dewey of situation comedies. Not only that, but he had to, you have to sell his house and his Children do. As for the election itself. Forsyth says he's happy with the result. We're all *** little bit elated at what happened. Uh uh in this this election, we look forward to some exciting times ahead. I wanna talk about television. But let, let me ask you just real quickly as long as you bring it up, was there even *** glimmer of truth to this, uh, elitist accusation that, uh, Quayle and, and, and, uh, Bush were bringing up during the campaign. Well, you'd have, I guess we'd have to be *** longer term, uh, conversation. We'd have to define the term. Uh, what is elitist? I thought, uh, I never saw more elitism displayed than, well, there's *** lot of somebody who stands up and calls somebody else elitist. Well, I guess what they were saying, uh, you guys have lost touch with Middle America, huh? Well, I'd be shocked if that were true. Uh, since so much of what happens in the entertainment business reaches middle America and succeeds with middle America, uh, I, I would doubt that we've lost, uh, we've lost touch so the powers that be airs tonight and for Norman Lear, the gamble paid off, we thought the polls would be correct. But if they weren't, we would have, uh, and historical anachronism of some considerable consequence. What he meant that it would be *** mess. Michael Collins News Five.
