FEEDBACK
 
      Here are a few of the letters received recently from Candid Camera viewers. [Please note: Only signed letters will be considered for publication here.]

KEEP ON SMILING
    I was glad to see candid camera come back on the air. I watched the show as a little kid. It never seems to amaze me how after all these years, you can still come up with new material. I love to see clips of the original show also. Never does a Friday night go by that I don't get a laugh from the show. I have heard people say when things happen out of the norm, "Am I on Candid Camera?" Keep on Smiling! (My husband and son like Suzanne Summers.)
—Cathy Dorson

SORELY MISSED
    I have been sorely missing Candid Camera. It is the ONLY show that I watch on television (with regularity). Please in the future let regulars like myself know that the show will be coming back. I was ready to start a "bring back Candid Camera" campaign.
—A "Sharp" in St. Louis

CAN I GET OLD CLIPS?
    I really enjoy your show. I am wondering about shows that were aired last season. Is there anyway to get videos of them? I am particularly interested in two shows. They are the state of Texas being closed due to it's population limit and the show where Suzanne sings "Earth Angel" out of tune in a local park.
—Carolyn Brzeczek, Friendswood, Texas

[We're trying to figure out a system to make previous Candid scenes available. Meanwhile, watch for repeat broadcasts, and keep an eye on this web site.]

COME TO OREGON!
    I enjoy watching your program, and I hope that you'll come here some time. I think that it would be awesome just to be surprised sometime while I'm at the grocery store or even at school. I love to laugh!
—Cassie Huntley, Salem, Oregon

COME BACK!
    My wife and I look forward to Candid Camera and are very sad to see that it hasn't been on lately. We can't wait to see the tribute to your dad in November. Come back to us!
—Leonard and Pat Welch, Berlin, Connecticut

[We're back! CBS has scheduled Candid Camera each Friday!]

SO REFRESHING
    Candid Camera is one of the few shows we can have on TV when our 4, 9, and 12-yr. old grandkids are here and they said they watch it at home also. It is the wholesomeness of the show that is so refreshing. Keep up the good work.
—Bill Spencer family, Coos Bay, Oregon

WHY THE BLEEPS?
    As parents, we are quite selective of what our children watch on TV since so much of what is on TV is inappropriate, even in the most subtle ways. Our family enjoys watching your show because we all laugh together. It is generally an uplifting time. We found your show disturbing tonight [Oct. 1] because so many of the individuals' comments had to be bleeped out when they realized they were on camera. We do not understand why you had to choose those comments to be aired. Such responses appear to be the norm to children. It is a shame that we will have to think twice before we watch your program together again.
—Gwen and Ronald Goldstein, Huntington Station, N.Y.

[We use bleeps so that kids won't hear objectionable material. That's the whole point. But we can't control how people speak, and we can't throw out a sequence just because of a few harsh words. We hope you'll accept the bleeps. —Peter]

LIKE IT IS
    Thanks a lot for the entertaining show. The two mc's, Peter Funt and Suzanne Somers, are excellent together. Your "skits" are great, just like the original Candid Camera with Allen Funt. It takes a special type of humor. One thing: please keep it like it is and don't try an imitation like has been done in the past.
—Sara Kelly
