I know Arch is supposed to be an entertainment reporter, but he does
little real work in the way of reviewing films or alterting people to
interesting nightspots, in my opinion.  In fact, he seems to spend most of
his time cracking wise with the other on-air staff between lame jokes.

The other night, he was reviewing "Down Periscope," the new Kelsey Grammer
film.  He told the audience next to nothing about the film itself, showed
a small clip, and made some comment like, "I would have loved to call this
film "20,000 Laughs Under the Sea,' but I just can't!"

He would have loved to used that like because it would have assured him a
place in a movie ad, right next to "I Loved it!" and "Feelgood hit of the
season!"  He then said the movie wasn't very good, and then rated it with
three stars.

I understand the realities of TV, so I imagine that Arch has a really high
TVQ, or at least, has compromising photos of the station manager.  Other
than that, I can't imagine why someone who described Robert Altman's
"Short Cuts" as a "sick" film could possibly hold a job as an
entertainment reporter in one of the most sophisticated and affluent TV
markets in the country.

I just had to get that off my chest.
