		Passion and hunger are certainly true of Hat Trick, judging from its horoscope (April 30 1985).
		Hat Trick gets its name from a lively Mercury, the planet of tricks and trade, linked to pushy Mars, and this also gives it brilliant potential to increase revenue for new research and production through brand development.
		Hat Trick's Mercury is moving to oppose Pluto and since Pluto is a god with no altar of appeal, the likely response is refusal from the broadcasters and a deaf ear from the government.

	Info and facts on 'Desilu Productions' (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Desilu Productions was a company jointly owned by American (A native or inhabitant of the United States) actors Lucille Ball (United States comedienne best known as the star of a popular television program (1911-1989)) and Desi Arnaz (additional info and facts about Desi Arnaz).
		For example, lacking formal business training, Arnaz knew nothing of amortization (Payment of an obligation in a series of installments or transfers), and often included all the costs incurred by the production into the first episode of a season, rather than spreading them across the projected number of episodes in the year.
		As a result, by the end of the season, episodes would be nearly entirely paid for, and would come in at preposterously low figures.

		Drew's Whose Line began production in the spring of 1998, and the first episodes aired that summer, shortly after the British version of the show ended its run.

		The faces on Drew's panels are familiar (most of them starred in the British series), and they all interact with him in much the same way they did with his predecessor--they are as ruthless in their taunting of Drew as they were when they mocked Clive.
