What's on TV: Friday, November 19, 1965



On Saturday, we took a look at Slattery's People, the highly-praised but little-watched political drama that CBS canceled earlier in the season. As you can see, it's still on, playing out the string of completed episodes, and this week's listing includes a plug for for Dwight Witney's story with the cutting remark, "'Slattery’s People' have failed to reelect him. See Page 12." And who, indeed, can be surprised? For while The Man from U.N.C.L.E. sees Napoleon and Illya in Japan searching for THRUSH's Eastern headquarters (along with France Nuyen!), Slattery is involved in a disupte about the railroad's plans to discontinue a line that has low ridership. Well, which one would you watch? Happily, we can see them both, or at least the listings for them, in this week's Northern California edition.
