(:25) ›› Deep Impact ('98, Drama) By Jay Bobbin Q : Why was "White Christmas" so hard to find on TV this latest holiday season? — Dave Jenkins, Westerville, Ohio A : It was a matter of know- ing when and where to look. AMC traditionally has been the seasonal home of the 1954 Bing Crosby-Danny Kaye classic, and while the picture still could be found there, it was pretty much rel- egated to the overnight hours last month ... with more-con- temporary attractions such as "Love Actually" and "National Lampoon's Christmas Vaca- tion" getting the prime evening scheduling. However, Sundance offered a feast of "White Christmas" on Christmas Eve and Christ- mas Day, running it continu- ously for the better part of 24 hours — thus emulating what TBS and TNT traditionally do each year with "A Christmas Story," and setting up a rivalry of sorts between two of the most beloved of all holiday movies, though there were plenty of chances to catch both within that time span. Q : I see that Sara Haines is hosting the new game show "The Chase." How is she able to do both that and "The View"? — Sandy Crane, via e-mail A : Skillful scheduling, but there's even more to it than that. You couldn't tell it from watching ABC's "The View," especially with its cur- rent format that has the hosts in different locations anyway, but the normally New York- based Haines was maintaining her weekday role on that pro- gram while also recording the first season of "The Chase" over a two-week period in Los Angeles. That's often how prime- time game shows are done now, taping most or all of a season's episodes within a concentrated period of time. As another example, Elizabeth Banks has confirmed to us that's how she does ABC's "Press Your Luck," thereby leaving her available to work on the many other television and movie projects she's in- volved in. Q : I see that Queen Lat- ifah's version of "The Equalizer" will premiere soon. Who was the star of the original show? — Bruce Hart, Glasgow, Ky. A : British actor Edward Woodward played Robert McCall, the government-es- pionage veteran who used his skills from that job to "equalize" things for people in trouble, in the original 1985-89 CBS drama. That inspired two Denzel Washington-starring feature films ... both of which were big hits that undoubtedly helped pave the way for the forthcoming series reboot (with Queen Latifah as "Robyn McCall") that will get the plum slot after the Super Bowl when CBS premieres it Feb. 7.
