The world of entertainment presented students with many ways to free their minds and souls from the grueling stresses of school. On the television scene, "Beverly Hills, 90210" was not nearly as popular as it was two years ago, but the juicy saga of Brandon and Brenda still reserved a place in the schedule of many students. The spin-off of "90210," "Melrose Place," starring Courtney Thorne Smith, Grant Show, and Andrew Shue, also ranked high on many students' priority lists. Other television shows following in the footsteps of these, such as "Class of '96" and the "Heights," proved to be hits, too. Last, but certainly not least, the last season of "Cheers" meant students could only immerse themselves in the lives of Sam, Norm, and Carla on "Cheers" for a short time more. While students watched some old favorites wind down, they also paid attention to some new series such as "Deep Space Nine," the newest addition to the "Star Trek" series. Many fans were happy to see a new beginning to the story line which had been one of the most popular in television history.
In addition, outside attention to old shows helped to maintain ratings such as "Murphy Brown" which in the season opener re taliated against former Vice President Dan Quayle's criticisms of its single motherhood theme that ended the previous season. Students found this year, as in all years, that a great place to spend a fun afternoon or evening was at the movie theater. One of this year's biggest hits was "School Ties," the chronicle of a yow1g Jewish man trying to fit in at a Christian college. Other hits included "Forever Young" with Mel Gibson, "The Bodyguard" starring Whitney Hou.ston and Kevin Costner, Bram Stok~r's "Dracula," "Home Alone2,""ScentofA Woman,"andMadom1a's latest, "Body of Evidence." In nearby Punxa tawney, Bill Murray starred in his latest movie, "Groundhog's Day." Many students reverted back to their youth as they flocked to see Walt Disney's latest blockbuster movie, "Aladdin," in which Robin Williams provided the voice for a witty genie. In retrospect, the world of entertainment was active enough so that students could have found plenty of reasons to put off doing their homework.
