New Nightline: “The Last Thing One Would Want To See Before Falling Asleep”
Negative Nightline review #2 comes from David Zurawik in the Baltimore Sun. ![]()
He gives James Goldston credit for a “polished-looking production” and a “smooth launch with no major glitches or serious mistakes.”![]()
But then he calls the show ” a garish-looking TV creature more reminiscent of the carnival midway than the pioneering broadcast whose name it bears. A stylistic marriage of prime-time newsmagazines and MTV, this hyped-up, neon-lit news program seems like the last thing one would want to see before trying to fall asleep.”![]()
At the end, he notes that “a new program can’t be judged on just one segment.” But after night one, “one thing was perfectly clear: The balance between substance and style at Nightline had been decisively – and sadly – reversed in the last week.”
