It's a dream come true for about
half the population of the United
States. A show for people who
like to comb their hair funny In
front of the bathroom mirror
while singing into a hairbrush
has at last surfaced on the TV
screen.
After monitoring Tuttin' on
the Hits" for several weeks, some
thing became clear to me that
might have gone unnoticed by a
less seasoned viewer. Tuttln' on
the Hits" Is not an outlet for frus
trated lip-syncers at all, but rather
an appetite suppressant for prob
lem eaters to watch during Sat
urday evening mealtimes.
An explanation of the show's
premise Is in order. "Everyone
wants to star in their own video,"
the producers cunningly thought.
"Let's cash In on that. We'll buv a
second-hand stage from "Solid
Gold," hire an obnoxious piece of
beefcake to be overly touchy-feely
with the female contestants and
we'll fill the time slot right before
'Dance Fever' (another diet
show). We'll warm up folks who
watch 'Dance Fever' for the hips
by focusing on lips. (This diverts
the problem eater's attention

' To liven things up, well hire
washed-up celebrities who split
their time between Tattle Tales'
and The Love Boat' to judge the
performers. Lip-sync, appearance
and originality (originality? For
mouthing someone else's song?)
will be the judging criterion and
winners will receive things like
cough drops, greeting cards, tile
sealer or insignificant amounts of
money for their efforts. It will be
ideal! Since contestants provide
the talent, and we only pay the
one that wins, we can get by with
just an electric bill, prizes from
specially selected Salvation Army

stores and a salary for the host.
And there is nothing to produce!
The guests do all the work and we
simply pick the ones that look the
least foolish a few days before the
show. "Ah, The American Dream,
something for nothing!" (This at
tractive lack of substance trans
lates into an empty stomach for
the dieter.)
The makers of Tuttm on the
Hits" are quite clever indeed. To
pass off an effective diet program
as just another third-rate contest
show with a musical twist is no
small accomplishment. It even
comes equipped with a fool-proof
backup system should the weigh
tlessness and emphasis on lips
not curb an appetite. The host
alone induces nausea and vom
iting. Andy Warhol once said that
someday everyone will be famous
for at least 15 minutes. Tuttin'
on the Hits" goes that one better:
we only have to tolerate each
contestant's fame for six minutes.
