Summary of Amazing Stories: Book Four (Mirror Mirror, Blue Man Down, Mr. Magic)

Also on tap is "Blue Man Down," a solid action piece with supernatural overtones, written by Spielberg. Max Gail stars as a traumatized, guilt-ridden cop who blames himself for the murder of his young partner. His confidence shot and his nerves a wreck, the suffering hero attempts to hide within the lesser duties of traffic detail, only to find himself partnered with a compassionate, attractive female officer (Kate McNeil) who helps him get back on his feet and pushes him toward full duty again. The downside: no one else appears to see her. Actor-director Paul Michael Glaser does some of his best behind-the-camera work on this show.

Finally, Sid Caesar stars in "Mr. Magic," a sentimental tale of an aging, washed-up nightclub magician who purchases a set of cards with marvelous powers of flight. Rescued from the trash heap of small-time has-beens, Caesar's character gets a new lease on life when his cards take over the act, twirling, flying, mimicking people, and astounding audiences--with no help from Caesar. --Tom Keogh.
