"American Playhouse" The Diaries of Adam and Eve (The Diaries of Adam and Eve)

Adapted from Mark Twain's humorous observations of the war between the sexes, we present the oldest love story of all time, glimpsed through the fancifully imagined diary entries of Adam and Eve during their brief stay in the Garden of Eden. Three time Emmy-nominated Meredith Baxter Birney plays Eve, who, among other things, decides Adam "can't think of a rational name to save himself," and so proceeds to undertake the naming of the world. Adam, portrayed by David Birney, likewise wishes Eve would talk less and is deeply suspicious of her alarming appetite for fruit.
