"Hollywood is just a foolish, silly place," Faso kidded. "If I could do this any other way, I would. Making it? It's part talent, it's a lot of luck, it's mostly endurance.

And it's too late to try something new. I just can't do anything else." And how about "I'm Faso taped all 26 shows for the year in just six days this past June. It was a blur. But an enjoyable blur. "It's not demeaning to kids," he said.

"It's not educational, but there's no violence in it and it's not going to hurt kids in any way." Laurie Faso still sees his acting friends from the New York days, especially DeVito and his wife, Rhea Perl-man. And he's still knocking his head against the Hollywood career wall, going to auditions and trying to score a bigger slice of the show business pie. But steady work doing radio commercials and animation voice-overs definitely has its merits. "I particularly like it because the tall blond guy doesn't always get the part," he said. "And you don't have to shave." End of shameless plug.

Now, whichever silly La La Land Tinkerbelle is in charge of Stardust sprinkles these days, please dust my friend. That's Larry, excuse me, Laurie Faso. A real human being. READERS WRITE: Helen Szabo of Onaway thinks Capt. Video is some kind of obnoxious yo-yo for criticizing Channel 2 (WJBK-TV) for pre-empting the women's semifinals of the U.S.

Open tennis tournament. Szabo writes, "Double boo, hiss to you and your And a rah, rah to Channel 2. A big boo, hiss to national (CBS) coverage of tennis at a time when thousands of people enjoy their soaps. I'm sure they could have pre-taped for later 6:00 (6; (T) Wild America doesn't air in Detroit. Channel 4 (WDIV-TV) pre-empts it for "American Bandstand." So please turn your TV antennae toward Toledo and Channel 13 (WTVG-TV).

Faso is not the typical Wink Martin dale. "Usually, game show hosts are white bread people, as opposed to Italians from New York," Faso joked in a recent phone interview and college reunion. Is "I'm any good? To be honest, I have no idea. I haven't seen it. But at least it features real people and is a break from the Saturday kiddie cartoon ghetto.

The game? Teams of brothers and sisters compete by answering questions about their siblings' habits, hobbies and friends. Sort of a junior "New-lywed Game" without the sleaze and tease. And Larry, excuse me, Laurie Faso? A great human being in his own right, I can assure you. Actually, he was named Laurie from birth. "But I chickened out when I got to Denison," he said, referring to fears of cruel peer barbs about having a slightly effete handle.

With a name like Laurie, you learn to be fast with the imagination and the witty repartee. Enter Laurie Faso, zany child and class clown. Acting and show biz gigs? Here's a guy who did six years in "Godspell" and even got to ride on the "Godspell" float in the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade. In the rain, of course. He was also in a Joe Papp Shake-speare-in-the-Park production of "Comedy of Errors." Fellow cast members included Ted Danson, Danny De-vito, Michael Tucker and Blair Brown Days and Nights of Molly Somehow, they forgot to sprinkle the Stardust on my good friend.

Interesting thing about actors. Many are hardworking and dedicated, most never become stars. Fortunately, in addition to the hardworking and dedicated part, Laurie Faso is also a realist with a well-developed sense of humor. Students of highly praised, little-watched children's shows may remember him from the late 1970s syndicated series "Mario and the Magic Movie Machine." He was Mario. "For a while, I was the only live human being on television on Saturday mornings," he recalled.

Faso moved from New York to Los Angeles in 1980. He married a woman named Marilyn. He set up housekeeping in North Hollywood. And he banged on doors looking for jobs. He's had bits in "Benson," "Webster," "Throb" and other series.

I enjoy my soaps and so do millions. There is enough sports on TV. Leave us alone and let us NBC, a flop in 14 previous attempts at creating a "60 newsmagazine, is trying again. Something called "90 Minutes," a newsinformation program that will feature name personalities from NBC's news, sports and entertainment divisions, is being developed for a January 1989 debut opposite "60 Minutes" on Sunday nights. Channel 2 (WJBK-TV) has won a national Gabriel Award for humanitarian I'rogramming for "Castles in the Sand," the powerful documentary about the late Channel 2 reporter Josh Littman's battle with leukemia.

The Eli Zaret buzz continues. Rick Brode, agent for the former Channel 4 (WDIV-TV) sports-caster, who was recently cut loose by WABC-TV in New York, has contacted all three Detroit network affiliates about job possibilities for Zaret. "He would like to come home," Brode said. And despite being an I'm backing another preview episode of the delightful new CBS series "Frank's Place" as tonight's pick to click. Be there or be square.
