The expansion to 11 p.m.

could' come on Oct. 9, but plans are tentative. The change comes on the heels of record ratings for the newscast in the July A. C. Nielsen survey.

"Our research shows the audience will stick with us if we give them more straight news," said Hal Stop-fel, Channel 41 news director. "That doesn't mean more features, ribbon cuttings or pothole reports," said John Dorkin, station manager. "Our viewers tells us they want more on the big, breaking national and international news." WDRB hopes to gain viewers because the "News at 10" earns higher ratings than the sitcom reruns that follow it. Anchors Lauretta Harris and Don Schroeder will remain, and Bill Francis will do an expanded nightly business report. Four series' debuts The new TV season is in full swing with the debut of four new series tonight.

Here's a look. "Central Park West," at 9 on CBS-32, stars Mariel Hemingway and is the most interesting newcomer. It's something like "Melrose Place" in Manhattan. That's no surprise since it comes from some of the same people who created that soap and "Beverly Hills, 90210" for Fox. Is it any good? It's all right if you like tales of greed, gossip, ambition and power grabs with a sophisticated backdrop of corporate back-stabbing and ruinous romance.

Sure it's overblown, but that's what makes it fun. Hemingway plays a tough magazine editor with an unemployed husband. Lauren Hutton and Ron Leibman own the magazine. Their columnist daughter is a spoiled brat. Her brother is a John Kennedy Jr.

double and an assistant district attorney. Toss in a tabloid reporter willing to trade sex for a scoop and you get the idea. The competition is "Grace Under Fire" on ABC-11, but these two shows are opposites. That gives "Central Park West" a shot at success if it can draw fans from Fox's "Party of Five," which is also aimed at young people and is a better drama if not as juicy. "Central Park West" could be a hit.

"Courthouse," at 10 on CBS-32, is the other new drama, but it's a jumbled mess and lacks feeling. Patricia Wettig stars as the chief Presiding judge of a big-city court-ouse where nothing works, including the judicial system. Wettig seems confused in the role and unable to command the" attention the central character must have in a unwieldy show like this. However, the worst-casting-of-the-season award goes to whoever put Robin Givens in the role of a court investigator. There are no great performances and the cases that come up don't reach out and grab viewers.

Eggplant, Chicken or Veal Parmesan, Garlic Bread Large Drink Hf plus tax Exclusive Nationwide Personal Home There's a lesbian relationship between two of the characters and there's a hint of after-hours romance for the chief judge, but it will take more than love to save this show. "The Drew Carey Show," which has its premiere at 8:30 on ABC-11, won't do much to polish the city of Cleveland's image. It's another buddy show, a Midwestern version of "Friends," with the group hanging out at a bar instead of a trendy coffeehouse. Carey is a stand-up comic who hopes to become the next Tim Allen or Jerry Seinfeld, but this sitcom won't get him there. He plays the kind of "Norm" character that George Wendt did on "Cheers." His pals kind of live at his house and he car-pools to his department-store personnel job.

Carey is likable, but the show is about nothing. Unlike "Seinfeld," it also adds up to that. "The Naked Truth," a sitcom that has its debut at 9:30 on ABC-11, is about a divorced photographer forced to take a job on a tabloid weekly newspaper to survive. That apparently explains all the sex and bathroom humor. But any show that depends on Playboy centerfold Anna Nicole Smith as a guest star for its debut is in trouble from the word go.

Newcomer Tea Leoni is the star, and she's not bad. The show does have a few laughs, but, overall, this is the kind of low-ball show that you would expect to see on the Fox network. ABC has positioned it behind "Grace Under Fire." It will be gone in a hurry if it can't hold onto "Grace's" big audience. Election debates The first of four programs on the Kentucky race for governor appears tonight at 8 on KET. "Kentucky Tonight" host Steve Swift interviews Democratic candidate Paul Patton and Republican candidate Larry Forgy.

Patton and Forgy will appear in a live debate Sept. 27 at 8 p.m. on KET. Two issue-oriented forums will be telecast Oct. 24 and 31.

Computer craze A new movie tonight at 9 on USA cable (TKR-33) is a 1995 version of George Orwell's "1984" Big Brother novel. "The Colony" is about a fenced-in enclave of the near future where a security system takes over the lives of the residents. John Ritter and Mary Page Keller play the couple who get sucked in by the promise of living in a crime-free community and rind themselves pushed to the edge of extinction. June Lockhart does a nice cameo as the evil schoolteacher. The premise is interesting, but the plot gets out of hand and loses credibility.
