Fans told to forget murder

By IAN BAILEY

TORONTO (CP) — Twin Peaks
fans take note: The actress who plays
murder victim Laura Palmer says you
should forget trying to figure out who
killed the character and just enjoy the
show.

“*Fhe point is not who killed Laura
Palmer,”’ Sheryl Lee, 23, said during
a recent visit to promote the television
series which returns this fall, ‘‘The
murder was just to get the ball rolling:

“People are so overly concerned
with who kiled Laura. I hope they’re
not missing all the wonderful things
that are happening along the way,””
says Lee, who was re-cast from
Laura’s dead body to her look-a-like
cousin,

The native of Boulder. Colo. —
who is as ethereal in*person as on

screen — was working in theatre in «

Seattle when she was cast as Palmer,
the enigmatic homecoming queen in
the fictional town of Twin Peaks.

As orchestrated by filmmaker
David Lynch and co-creator Mark
Frost, Palmer's death prompted a

Twin Peaks actress says

just enjoy the show

visit from Dale Cooper, (Kyle
MacLachlan) an FBI agent with a
thing for hot coffee and Douglas firs,
to help the local sheriff find the killer.

Among the oddball elements
featured before the first eight
episodes ended in May were the
slaying of a mina bird taken into
police custody for questioning and
Cooper's dreams about a midget who
— speaking in reverse English —
assures him his favorite gum will
come back in style while offering
clues.

There were also high-spirited
Icelanders visiting Twin Peaks on
business and a shoe salesman without
a left arm who carried a suitcase full
of shoes for right feet.

Even after all this, viewers were left
in the dark about who killed Laura

Palmer. And don’t bother asking the
actors, who haven't received their
copies of the script for next season's
first episode.

Ray Wise, who plays Palmer's
grief-stricken father, Leland, and who
accompanied Lee to Toronto, says
viewers should be patient.

“*By the time we find out who killed
Laura Palmer, there will be several
other stories that are just as impor-
tant. There will be other subplots that
will become the main plot,’* said
Wise.

Wise says he was initially told little
about the show other than that it was
going to be about residents of a
Pacific northwest town.

“Knowing David Lynch, | knew it
would be different,"’ said Wise, ad-
ding he had seen Lynch’s previous

TV characters eat badly,
survey of shows says

By JAY SHARBUTT

NEW YORK (AP) — Television
might make your brain cry out for
sustenance, but it could be worse for
couch potatoes if it inspires them to
down the same junk they see actors
eating on TV shows at night.

No kidding, that’s the opinion of a
study that analysed the food content
of 11 top network shows and caused
the authors of the study to almost
burp in dismay.

“The prime-time diet is incon-
sistent with dietary guidelines for
healthy Americans,"’ says a sum-
mation of the study, published in this
month’s issue of the American Jour-
nal of Public Health.

The study, conducted in the sum-

mer of 1988, was designed to examine
whether what we see eaten on TV has
any impact on what we eat. Could be,
it concluded. But it added more
research is needed.

The report makes clear that such
good-for-you eats as wheat germ, ap-
ples, spinach, fish and even the
mighty banana get short shrift in
prime time.

The study finds that 60 per cent of
all food references in the studies
shows ‘‘werre for low-nutrient
beverages and sweets."

A big boo to you, Mr. TV
Producer.

The food references don’t include
the 261 commercials found here and
there in the shows. But they, too, in-
dicate TV has become Munchy City.

The study says 35 per cent of the
ads were for food, with fast-food
wares — hamburgers, fried chicken,
pizza and breakfast sandwiches —
leading the pack.

The shows analyzed for their depic-
tions of TV dining ranged from
Who's the Boss to The Golden Girls
and from Murder She Wrote to ALF.

Even L.A. Law, which often has a
fruit bowl on its conference table to
indicate the series is about a Los
Angeles law firm, got the gimlet eye.

All this analysing proved a veritable
Tums festival, finding that references
to food occurred an average of 4.8
times per half-hour for a grand total
of 134 food references. For what it’s
worth, fish got only one mention, but
then, so did muffins.

Owl TV to make comeback

TORONTO (CP) — A new action-
adventure drama and two new
children’s programs — including a
revival of Owl TV — are among the
Canadian series that will appear next
fallon CTV.

In announcing its 1990-91 schedule,
the network said that its new
Canadian hour of prime-time drama
will be called Neon Rider.

Set in British Columbia, the Satur

day-night series stars Winston Rekert
as a child psychologist who drops his
established practice to set up a
wilderness camp for troubled city
youth

Owl TV, the d g series

produced in Halifax — will also be
shown Saturday morning and will
take a similar approach to science for
youngsters.

Two Canadian series, ENG and

which ran on CBC between 1985 and
1988 but fell prey to a lack of funds,
favors a kid’s-eye view of nature and
will appear Saturday mornings.
Wonder Why? — a new program

Bordertown, have been renewed for a
second season, and two other
Canadian series, My Secret Identity
and Katts and Dog, will enter their
third season :

films including Blue Velvet, a
similarly weird thriller about a small
town’s dark secrets.
Lynch’s latest film, Wild at Heart,
recently won th Palme d’Or at the
Cannes Film Festival. Sheryl Lee has

had been found naked and dead on a
beach, wrapped in plastic.

After that, his role called for him to
moan, sob and throw himself on his
daughter's casket in a sustained grief
Wise finds hilarious. In the last
episode, he murdered a prime suspect
in Laura Palmer's death.

“For reasons which will come out
in the story, Leland has been terribly
and emotionally traumatized by the
death of his daughter beyond 2 nor-
mal kind of mourning.”’

He says he’s now watching his mail,
awaiting the script for the first of 13
episodes to be shot in July.

“It will be 53 to 54 pages of in-
teresting reading.””

Highest
ratings ever
for Fox

LOS ANGELES (AP) — These are
halcyon days for Fox Broadcasting
Co.

In the latest Nicisen ratings, the
U.S. television network that refuses
to call itself one broke into the top 10
for the first time in its young life.

The Simpsons was the No. 4 show
in the United States. at the end of
May. Married . . . With Children was
No. 11 and In Living Color placed
19th. Never before in its four-year
existence has Fox placed three shows
in the top 20.

At its annual convention last week
for affiliated stations, Fox was beside
itself.

So what's an upstart network to
do?

Well, try not to let it go to your
head, for starters. Or at least, don’t
let it look like it’s going to your head.
And when you roll out your fall
schedule, don’t let it appear that
you're going toe-to-toe with the big
boys, even though you are.

Before about 600 advertisers, af-
filiate representatives and reporters
Monday, Fox trotted out sneak peeks
and the stars of its fall lineup.

Out came Keene Ivory Wayans
and his brother, Damon, whose In
Living Color skits include black, yy.

Unemployment rate up

OTTAWA (CP) — The unem-
ployment rate jumped to 7.6 per cent
in May from 7.2 per cent in April as
the number of people working last
month fell, Statistics Canada said

rose 49,000 to 1,036,000, with the rise
evenly distributed between men and

women.

The number of jobless topped the
one million mark for the first time
since February as Ontario and Nova
Scotia bore the brunt of the increase.

The drop in the number of people
working is a sharp contrast to April,
when employment increased by
56,000. Unless otherwise stated, all
figures are adjusted for seasonal
changes.

Statistics Canada said May's jobs
losses were mainly among men
working full-time.

Full-time employment fell by
37,000, including a decline of 22,090
among men. There were 12,000 fewer
part-time jobs, with the losses concen-

trated mainly among women.

Across Canada, Ontario saw the
biggest decline in employment with
44,000 fewer people working in that
Province.

Employment also fell 17,000 in
Alberta and 6,000 in Nova Scotia, but
there were 13,000’ more people
working in British Columbia.

There was little or no change
among the remaining provinces.

Before taking seasonal variations
into account, the actual number of
unemployed in May rose to
1,040,000, up 13,000 or 1.3 per cent
from the same month last year. .

Across Canada, the unemployment
rate rose iri May from the previous

month in seven provinces.

t rose in
dland to 17.6 per cent from 16.4 per
cent, in Nova Scotia to 11.2 per cent
from 9.5 per cent, in Quebec to 9.3
per cent from 9.1 per cent and in On-
tario to 5.8 per cent from 5.2 per cent.

The rate also increased in Manitoba
to 7.3 per cent from 6.4 per cent, in
Alberta to 6.9 per cent from 6.5 per
cent and in Saskatchewan to 6.8 per
cent from 6.6 per cent.

Unemployment declined in Prince
Edward Island to 14.5 per cent from
15.5 per cent, in New Brunswick to
11.0 per cent from 12.0 per cent and
in British Columbia to 7.6 per cent
from 8.0 percent.
