ID -I mm 55 HOLLYWOOD OB Situation comedy, out of style and out of favor with network television program makers for the past few seasons, is making a comeback next season. There are seven new series of the genre on the schedules of the three networks. And a lucky swing of the programming cycle returns them at a time when flarce physical action and gunplay is, if not taboo, at least radically modified.

Television series are usually under construction for one or two years before the public gets its first look at a show, so most of these were on the drawing boards long: before the public and-the networks began worrying about shoot 'em ups and their suspected effects on tender or disturbed minds. On the September docket are CBS' "Doris Day Show," the popular film star's first excursion into television. She plays a former band singer, a widow with two children, adjusting to rural life. There is also NBC's "Julia," with Diahann Carroll playing a widowed registered nurse with child. Other nonviolent comedies include CBS "Blondle," based on a comic strip; ABC's "Ugliest Girl in Town;" NBC's Fantasy.

"The Ghost and Mrs. Mulr;" CBS' "The Good Guys," and ABC's hour-long "Here Come the Brides," a Thursday Morning Television s3i (DdBot titan FffMay playing continuing characters.

ABC also has th sole anthology series of the season, "Journey to the Unknown," with different plot and performers weekly.
