Live Shot — Season 1, Episode 1: Day One/Another Day, Another Story

Episode synopsis

The just-hired news director Alex Rydell arrives at Los Angeles television station KXZX-TV's ""Re-Action News"" to find the investigative news team chasing the biggest society scandal to break in years; bickering anchors Harry Chandler Moore and Sherry Beck; a combative (and apparently targeted) right wing commentator Marvin Seaborn and a controlling General manager, Art Hennesey. All the while, Alex must come to terms with sudden single parenthood when his wife decides not to join him in L.A. and instead sends their young son, Sean, to live with his father. As the news director's first week on the job progresses, vain veteran anchorman Harry, who uses the on-air moniker ""The Beacon of Truth,"" bitterly protests when Alex insists that he team up with Sherry to conduct an interview at the White House with President Clinton.

About Live Shot

Live Shot is an American drama television show starring Jeff Yagher that aired in fall 1995 on UPN. The show centered on fictional television station, KXZX, in Los Angeles's Re-Action News. It was an ensemble piece, one of the rare occasions in television where there was no true main character. Most notable in the show's run was an early use of an ongoing story arc centering around the murder of a Los Angeles socialite. As the show was canceled with little warning, the story arc was never resolved. Also, sports reporter Lou Waller came out of the closet in the last act of the last episode to air. Consequently, the fallout of this event was never shown.
