Reel 2532

Room for Two (Tues., ABC) replaces Coach for a few weeks and I feared this would ruin my Best Night on TV. But there's hope. This is a great idea—a mother-daughter sitcom. That's a relationship so ripe with sharp humor, I'm surprised TV hasn't had more of them. Alice's Linda Lavin stars as Mom, who comes to visit her daughter (Patricia Heaton), the producer of a New York morning show. Mom opens her big yap on the air and becomes a spokeswoman for real women ("We want our self-esteem high and our prices low!"), then moves to town to haunt her daughter. My score: 8
