[net.tv] Danny Kaye on The Zone

USA Weekend selected Danny Kaye as a national treasure this past weekend.
How can you argue that????  He is wonderful, and has already left a fine
legacy behind him.  Look at Friday's 2nd TZ episode! An utter delight!
He remains a wonderful actor.  And the story was terrific!  It was nice
to see a lower class black man who wasn't a criminal, and who was, in
fact, an honorable character.  And a Vietnam vet who wasn't mentally
messed up.  Stereotypes getting blown away!  A constructive use for TV!

Combine this with Sunday's Amazing Stories and Hitchcock, not to mention
the great football games, and SNL's rebirth, and it was a fine TV weekend.
