The representative TV playwright is by nature and vocation an advertising copywriter who only yesterday was pushing men’s and women’s wear. Today, Messrs. Simon and Schuster (who also have got everything that it takes to push men’s and women’s wear, but happen to run a publishing firm) present Six Television Plays by Reginald Rose. I have read the volume. I am no longer certain that this is the best of all possible worlds.
