Broadcasting & Cable - April 14, 2002

This year's prime time development has two major themes: family programming and shows reflecting Sept. 11that is, shows dealing with police, firemen, the military, government and the like. Some see those two themes as connected in the sense that Americans seemed to focus more on the importance of family in the wake of last year's tragic events.
