- <p> The silence of the Lamb Chop is over. Shari Lewis, that
- perky ventriloquist familiar to TV-hooked baby boomers, is
- coming back, and so is her wisecracking sidekick. This fall
- Lewis begins production of Lamb Chop's Play Along, a daily PBS
- program with a message: It's more fun to do than just view.
- "This is the first anti-couch potato show," says Lewis, who's
- become alarmed at the passive life-styles of children "stoned
- on TV." Her show will feature interactive songs and games. Can
- one woman's tireless limb lure cartoon-crazed kids away from
- superheros and Ninja Turtles? Ewe never know.
