Former WJZ newsman Richard Sher reports that his new "Square Off" production taped its first show Friday -- and, if he must say so himself, "it was fantastic!!!" (The three exclamation points are all Sher's, and good for him and the enthusiasm he is bringing to this project.) The new version of the long-running Baltimore TV staple debuts Sept. 13 on WMAR (Channel 2), and a lot of folks seem to be looking forward to it. The picture (provided by Sher) shows the one-time co-hosting partner of Oprah Winfrey standing in front of his new set. According to Sher, the set of recurring panelists on the public affairs show will include: Billy Murphy, Ed Norris, Kendel Ehrlich, Bob Ehrlich, Larry Young, Kweisi Mfume and others. If you need me to tell you who any of those folks are, this show is probably not for you. I will have a Z on TV preview piece in the Sun on Sept. 13.
