What's missing from the fall schedule is a reality series such as Survivor. The absence will be short-lived — Survivor II is coming to CBS in January, and other networks are furiously developing their own hoped-for reality hits.
Also largely unseen: diversity. Despite intense pressure by the NAACP and other civil rights groups to make TV more inclusive, only a few new series have expanded beyond white leads with a smattering of minority supporting players.
Despite TV delays fall season's series may be worth wait
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Enough reality. First the Olympics shoved the 2000-01 television season back two weeks, then the presidential debate tango played further havoc with series premieres.
Now, finally, the moment of truth is at hand: Thirty freshman comedies and dramas are about to crowd your television set, clamoring for attention and approval.
Analysts are upbeat that some shows are going to deliver the goods.
Aaron Spelling's *Titans*, which several analysts picked as a potential winner for NBC, could make a splash because there's nothing like it on TV at the moment.
Was it worth the wait? If the famous names involved in a number of series mean anything — and in some cases, they do — the answer is yes.
Success, however, doesn't always equal quality. A bland comedy such as CBS' Yes, *Dear* might have a shot at survival because it fills a scheduling niche, not because of any intrinsic excellence.
Among the potential winners: Geena Davis; Boston Public; DAG, with Burke; and the sitcoms Cursed and Yes Dear.
"We're seeing a lot more promise this year," said Roy Rothstein, vice president and director of national broadcast research for Zenith Media Services Inc. in New York "About five new shows look like successes."
Movie stars Bette Midler, Geena Davis and Gabriel Byrne are starring in custom-tailored sitcoms. TV veterans John Goodman, Craig T. Nelson, Delta Burke and Christine Baranski are to fold.

Roommate SURVIVAL Tips
College might be your first chance to live with someone else, or maybe you've been sharing a room all your life. Either way, there are compromises that must be made when you have to share space with a stranger. Here are some things to keep in mind to make the year go smoothly:
It's true. Pads feel so much like diapers.
With Playtex Gentle Glide all you feel is comfortable.
Yes, even the thinnest pads can give you this weird, uncomfortable feeling, like you're wearing a diaper. Who needs protection like that? Playtex Gentle Glide tampons give you a more comfortable way to deal with your period They have a unique design that adjusts to comfort fit. So whatever you do the only thing you feel is totally comfortable!
So comfortable you can't even feel them?

POLITICAL DISCLAIMER
The **most important** thing to keep in mind is this: To have a good roommate.
<u>you</u> must *be* a good roommate.
Be respectful of one another's schedules. If you don't like her friends' post-midnight visits, chances are she doesn't like you turning on the TV at 6 a.m.
Decide upfront how you will split up bills and stick to it. Money issues can cause arguments,make living together stressful,and ruin even the best friendships.
If possible, get separate phone lines. Then you won't worry about getting your messages, and she won't mind when you tie up the phone all night.
Even if your roommate always lets you borrow her CDs, it never hurts to say thank you.Also, just because she lets you borrow her CDs doesn't mean that her favorite sweater, last cookie, or anything else is also fair game. Always remember to ask before you borrow.
Some Roommates Share the Oddest Things!
Although no one can explain why, it is true that women who live together often have menstrual cycles that coincide. So make sure you have plenty of Playtex tampons on hand to share with your roommate. That way, if your periods do coincide, you'll both be really comfortable - and easier to get along with.
Have fun together. Encourage each other to get out and explore your surroundings. Go for a walk, study in a local park, or catch a concert or museum exhibit. Take pictures of your adventures - because college only happens once!
Realize that most disagreements, whether they are about phone time, borrowing clothes, or late night visitors, really come down to respect. Respect each other's space privacy, and beliefs, and you'll be ok.
Finally, remember that the school assigns you someone to live with, not someone to be best friends with. If you get to be good friends, great! But if you don't, that's ok. You have to share a room, not a life.
So comfortable you can't even feel them.®
