CHARMING 'EERIE, INDIANA' WORKS ON ADULT, CHILD'S LEVEL
AFTER WATCHING the Buffalo Bills' 4 p.m. Sunday game with the New York Jets on Channel 2, take a 30-minute dinner break and return for NBC's most imaginative new fall series.
The break will allow you to miss NBC's biggest loser this fall -- "The Adventures of Mark and Brian," which is scheduled to run at 7 if the Bills game ends on time.
At 7:30 NBC is scheduled to premiere "Eerie, Indiana." If they can get past the fact that the lead character wears a New York Giants sweat shirt, even Bills fans probably will love it.

Future plot lines sound promising. Upcoming episodes deal with Marshall's horror at the prospect of getting braces; his defiant act of setting his watch back an hour despite the fact Eerie doesn't recognize daylight-saving time; a Halloween show when Marshall and Simon baby-sit Simon's baby brother and the baby plays with a mummy instead of his mommy; and Marshall's discovery that there are seventh-generation pirates in town looking for treasures.
Perhaps the most frightening thing facing Marshall is its time slot. "Mark and Brian" will drive many viewers away. I had to ask Rivera, Schaefer and Dante if following that show scared them. "No, no," said Schaefer, rather unconvincingly. "We're not easily scared," added Dante.
