[net.tv] Melanie Chartoff not dead but might as well be.

[We join our tale of woe as yet another life goes down the toilet...]

If you're like me, you like to see promising young stars
plummet into ruin and dispair.
Well, remember Fridays?  A live 90 minute comedy show on ABC.
It was better than Saturday Night Live at the time since the SNL
crew had been recruited from various Salvation Army Missions 
throughout the Bowery.  Anyway, the delicious and talented star
of Fridays was, of course, Melanie Chartoff.
Does anyone remember her?  More important, has anyone seen the
newest ad for Raisin Bran Cerial?  Hoo-boy, when she traded in her
dignity, she didn't get book value.  "They CAN'T put more raisins
in there," she whines miserably; perhaps they want you to buy
Raisin Bran out of pity.
She probably has huge debts from the gambling and drugs and can't even
get a credit card.  The upshot of all this is now I have a better chance
than ever to get into her pants.  Life!  I love it!
