The ACE awards are given out for excellence in the cable industry. Considering the amount of excellence in the cable industry, there should be only six oi seven of these awards given each year. But on 77ie llth Annual ACE Awards, televised simultaneously on 12 cable channels Sunday night, 26 awards were given out, in addition to a couple dozen more distributed at a Friday night dinner that was, mcrci- fully, not televised. "Cable has come a long way," said impressionist Fred Travalcna under about 3 pounds of makeup intended to make him look like George Bush. Actually, cable hasn't come all that far: You may find that your local cable system can't even get a satisfac- tory signal as far as your house.

Some perspective is in order. In its first decade, free network television brought viewers Studio One, Play-house 90, The U.S. Steel Hour, Krafl Television Theater, Love Lucy, The Honeymooners, Omnibus, Wide, I Wide World, The Ed Sullivan Show, Tlie Colgate Comedy Hour, Milton Bcrle, Dinah Shore, Perry Como, Sid Caesar and Imogene Coca and Kukla, Iran and Ollic. That's only a tiny smattering from the cream of the crop. It doesn't include the great news programs of Edward Murrow and others, and represents the entertainment output of only three networks.

Today, cable has 30 networks including HBO, USA, TBS, TNN but after a decade of growth, it can't claim anything like the record of free TV's first 10 years. Of course, cable docs have its little advantages. "The thing I love best about cable is, they don't print the ratings in the newspaper," joked Garry Shandling, accepting the best comedy scries ACE for It 's Garry Shandling 's Show. His victory marked one notable improvement in the awards process. Each year, Shandling's show lost the comedy award to something called Blackaddcr, an imported series shown by the Arts Entertainment Net- work.

Nobody but the ACE judges watches blackaddcr. Its yearly wins were baffling, particularly because Shandling was a genuinely original, home-grown cable enterprise the kind of thing the industry should have been pointing to with pride. New "international" categories this I year covered shows produced abroad or made in partnership with U.S. companies. As a production, the ACE awards outdoes all other awards shows on television, but only in terms of I stupefying dullness.

A new addition this year: little, pretaped mini-inter- views with nominated actors and actresses. These were included "in order to gain insight into these talented people," said Dinah Shore, one of four co-hosts. And what insights. John Lithgow said he had "an absolutely wonderful time" making Traveling Man for HBO. Julie Harris said it was "a wonderful experience" making The Christmas Wife for HBO.

Vanessa Redgrave said she "loved doing" the remake of A Man for All Seasons for TNT. In contrast to the fatuous blather of the interview segments, writer Terry Black, who won for an installment of Talcs From the Crypt, was refreshingly frank: He said he'd gloat about winning to his "snot-nosed" younger brother, an established screenwriter. "The award will show the little bastard that I can do it, too," Black said. A few other wry wags managed to eke a chuckle or two out of the funereal affair. Alan Rafkin, who won for directing Shandling episodes, said, "I'll make it quick, 'cause I have to go to the bathroom." And chief Shandling writer Alan Zwcibel spoofed an awards-show tradition when he thanked not only his own wife and kids but also "the wife and kids of everybody on the writing staff." But here's an irony for you: The funniest and liveliest performer on the ACE awards was another emissary from the free TV of 35 years ago, veteran comic Red Buttons.

The last words of the Ayatollah Khomeini, Buttons said, were, "Kill Salman Rushdie and whoever wrote Police Academy 6." Buttons called Manuel Noriega "the first man to have the guts to go to Miami without his wife." You might feel that any program whose opening roster of guest stars includes, in this order, Andrea Martin, Tip O'Neill, Marie Osmond, has to have at least novelty value. O'Neill handed a golden ACE to CNN for its China coverage. The award was well-deserved, but it's unseemly to give out news prizes on the same glitzy telecast in which entertainment awards are given. It can be said with some justification that free TV's first decade was its best. With cable, the most charitable view is that things may get better.

The ACE awards are terrible because cable is lousy. It's simply as simple as that.
