Uncomfortable TV

[Bruce Appelbaum]

     On the air was too funny for television.

A-and how about the flashing logo that appeared with the electric 
buzz after the credits? Whew!
     
Speaking of David Lynch, am I and the people that I loan the tape to, 
the only person that has ever seen "On the Air"? It was supposed to 
be a television series about the putting on a show in the early days 
of television. My 11-year old daughter has watched it many times and 
laughs out loud
. 
It isn't listed anyplace on the WWW or in any books that I have seen 
(!), but it is incredibly funny.
