There's something relaxed about this Saturday's lineup. It's not wall-to-wall sports crammed into the afternoon; just some college and pro basketball, and a replay of an NFL game from last fall. Prime time is full of easy favorites, from Perry Mason and Gunsmoke on CBS (Actually, their whole lineup is very watchable), to The Roaring 20s and Lawrence Welk on ABC. It is funny, though, to not see Saturday Night at the Movies on NBC; it's not far away though—just wait until the fall. I'm sure you can find your favorites from this Minneapolis-St. Paul Edition; just don't look for KTCA, as the educational station doesn't yet broadcast on the weekends.
