The New York Times has deemed this extraordinary collection to be "the crown jewels of public and network television."

A penniless heiress; a disillusioned nun; the suicidal playwright whom they both love; the playwright's wife; a hapless art forger and a mother determined to outlive her children. Throw them all together, let them destroy each other, and you have For the Use of the Hall. This madcap, yet heartfelt, comedy about success and failure is built on wonderfully ridiculous situations and uproarious dialogue. Stars Oscar-nominees Aline MacMahon (Dragon Seed) and Barbara Barrie (Breaking Away), as well as David Hedison (Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea) and Susan Anspach (Five Easy Pieces).
