Love It or Leave It, Change It or Lose It

Kevin is directing ""The Proud Land"", a western that features a clash in values between an older rancher and a young lawyer. Cast in the roles are Jim Grange, a venerable western star, and Justin Willemann, one of the new breed of Hollywood actors. Just as their characters clash on-screen, Grange and Willemann clash personally: One of their heated topics is their differing opinions of the VietNam war. Their disagreement finally erupts in a fist fight, and threatens the future of the film. Bracken and Kevin both work to mend the rift, but it takes a visit to a veteran's hospital to cause the two actors to realize that their feud is inappropriate.

When Kevin arrives home, he finds Marjorie in the living room, dead from a blow to her head. His 9 year old son, Mark, is missing. The police investigation centers on a hippie couple who are found with the young boy.

Jenny, Who Bombs Buildings

Century Pictures is filming a documentary about Jenny March, a young activist who believes that violence is the appropriate protest for society's ills. She is released on bond after bombing a bank, and the documentary is her opportunity to explain her unconventional views. Kevin is directing the film and John Bracken is serving as the narrator. Jenny develops a crush on Kevin, but threatens to leave the picture when Rachel leads her to believe that the studio really plans a fictional approach, with an actress playing the lead. During her anger with the studio, Jenny is reunited with one of her activist friends, and together they plan another bombing. Kevin tries to convince Jenny that she should refrain from criminal behavior, even to the point of romancing her; Jenny admits that she would succumb if Kevin really loved her, but when he admits that his feelings are only concern for her welfare, Jenny leaves him to join her activist friend, and is killed in a botched bombing.

Stage and screen actress Maggie Morgan agrees to work on a tv series ""Crisis Clinic."" She torments the cast and crew with her temperamental outbursts, so Bracken recruits Kevin to get the series back on track. Things go relatively well until a cast party when Kevin offers Maggie a glass of vodka. Unwilling to admit that she is an alcoholic, Maggie accepts the drink, then fails to show up the next morning on the set because she has fallen off the wagon. The basis for her alcoholism seems to be the loss of the custody of her young son in a recent divorce. The only person who can reach Maggie is Jyl Symington, a former actress and Alcoholic Anonymous pal. Kevin and John recruit Jyl to sober Maggie up; Jyl threatens Maggie that she too will return to alcohol if Maggie doesn't sober up. Maggie is touched by Jyl's sincerity and returns to the set, sober and ready to work. The series is an ultimate success and Maggie is once again a sought after actress. Note: Guest Stars: Janet Leigh

The Nude Scene

Century Studio is producing ""A Time for Love"", a drama about a disintegrating marriage. Bracken and Kevin agree on the casting: Eva Sanders in the female lead; Paul Sims as the male. Neither have performed a nude scene, which is part of the plot. Eva agonizes over the effect the scene will have on her marriage and children; Sims is concerned about his physical appearance on-screen as a middle aged man. When the time comes to perform the scene, Paul is ready but Eva is reluctant. At first she pleads with Kevin to change the scene, but eventually decides to play the scene as written. The story features the whole studio discussing the relative merits of nudity on-screen, but all agree in the end that the story justifies the nudity.

The Late Show with Stephen Colbert

Stephen Colbert brings his signature satire and comedy to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the #1 show in late-night. Featuring bandleader Jon Batiste with his band Stay Human, the Emmy Award-nominated show broadcasts from the historic Ed Sullivan Theater. He talks with an eclectic mix of guests about what is new and relevant in the worlds of politics, entertainment, business, music, technology, and more. Stephen Colbert took over as host, executive producer, and writer of The Late Show on Sept. 8, 2015. 

Colbert is best known for his work as a television host, writer, actor, and producer, and lest known for his charity work teaching English as a second language on Tunisian date farms. Before joining the CBS family -- and being officially adopted by network president Les Moonves -- Colbert helmed The Colbert Report, which aired nearly 1,500 episodes and required Stephen to wear nearly 1,500 different neckties. The program received two Peabody Awards, two Grammy Awards, and several unwelcome shoulder massages. It won two Emmys for Outstanding Variety Series in 2013 and 2014, both of which appear to have been lost in the move. Colbert is pronounced koʊlˈbɛər, according to Wikipedia. His understudy is William Cavanaugh, who will be hosting The Late Show approximately one-third of the time. Good luck, Bill!

Classic characters old and new across thousands of episodes have shared a drink in The Queen Vic, shed tears of despair or joy, sat on Arthur's bench in the Square... and at some point or other they probably crossed paths with Ian Beale.
