Premise The show centered on fictional television station, KXZX, in Los Angeles's Re-Action News. It was an ensemble piece, with no true main character. Most notable in the show's run was an early use of an ongoing story arc centering on the murder of a Los Angeles socialite. As the show was canceled with little warning, the story arc was never resolved. Also, sports reporter Lou Waller came out of the closet in the last act of the last episode to air. Consequently, the fallout of this event was never shown. Cast and characters Main Jeff Yagher as Alex Rydell – The new News Director of KXZX's Re-Action News team. Immediately before joining the team he was working as a news director for a Boston station. Alex's wife decides not to join him in LA, and instead sends their son, Sean, to be with the father alone. One of his problems was dealing both with the stresses of his new job and being a newly single parent. Throughout the show's short run there was a growing attraction between, Alex and one of his producers, Nancy. However the show was canceled before the outcome could be decided. Cheryl Pollak as Nancy Lockridge – The Eleven O'Clock News producer. While she was attracted to Alex, she was also reluctant to begin a relationship with him as he was newly separated and had a son, plus he was her boss. In the final episode that aired it appeared as though Alex's wife might want a reconciliation and Nancy encouraged Alex to give his marriage another try for the sake of his son. Spencer Klein as Sean Rydell – Alex's young son. His mother had chosen not to come to LA and sent him to be with his father alone. David Birney as Harry Chandler "The Beacon of Truth" Moore – The vain, pompous senior news anchor at KXZX. Harry had a love/hate relationship with his co-anchor Sherry
