r V FishUJcdehar's GUIDE Text By Catherine Christopher Drawings By Dick Miller Television is a dandy lure for fishy characters. When you spot a Some¬ thing Smelt, a Monitor Carp, an Ab¬ sorbed Mullet, you come to realize how far TV has you up a creek. Other see-going oddities seek the TV channels, too. Among these finny friends and fiends are some you know —and wish you didn’t. The Fried Shrimp. A species more common in the early days, before they took the 'T and 'V' out of TaVern. Home TV has decimated its numbers. The Square Flounder. A forgetful spe¬ cies that can never keep in mind who's on first or even who's ahead. By an ironic twist of Fate, it's usually married to the Dodger Dolphin, which knows all the answers —better than the umpire. The Amorous Octopus varies an old theme. It advances optical reasons for dousing the lights during a telecast. Then, apparently all set for some intensive woo-pitching, it changes its mind. What happens then? It simply watches TV. 16
