Watching Lou Grant, I have sometimes imagined what it might be like if the old gang from WJM-TV were to show up.
Scene: a grim-looking Lou Grant in his Los Angeles Tribune office, with Charlie, Donovan, and an unidentified stranger. The old gang enters.
Mary: “Mr. Grant! It’s been such a long time !”Worlds colliding.
Lou (grimly): “Hello, Mary.”
Ted: “Why so blue, Lou?”
Lou: “Because we’re being held hostage, Ted!”
Murray: “Now you now how I felt every time Ted did the news.”
Charlie: “Lou, are these people your friends?”
