Buffalo Bill

Pilot (1x1)

Ausstrahlung: Jun 01, 1983

When his best friend Pete Killian dies, Bill Bittinger, the egocentric talk show host of high-rated local show Buffalo Bill, wants to apply to 60 Minutes as a news anchor. To increase his chances, he pledges his director Jo-Jo White will sleep with the CBS network executive, Dan Thornwell. (Whether Jo-Jo and Dan slept together offscreen is unknown, even when she contends her refusal to Bill.) When he tells the live audience that he has elected to stay in Buffalo for his talk show, Jo-Jo opines to the crew that Bill really was not offered 60 Minutes. Bill reluctantly accepts an order from Carl to hire a new research assistant and hires the late Pete Killian's beautiful daughter, Wendy.
