		Monday August 16 1:03 AM ET  NBC hatches Y2K disaster
picture
		By Josef Adalian  NEW YORK (Variety)
		- Looking to take advantage of millennium madness, NBC is
working on 
		``Y2K,'' a disaster picture that imagines near-apocalyptic
results brought 
		about by the much-hyped computer bug.  The thriller stars
Ken Olin (``L.A. 
		Doctors'') as a techie trying to save the United States from
disasters 
		caused by computer failures as 1999 turns into 2000.  The
picture is the 
		only announced broadcast project to date capitalizing on
concerns over the 
		Y2K computer bug, in which machines interpret the date
1/1/00 as Jan. 1, 
		1900. Analysts have predicted all sorts of catastrophes as a
result of the 
		problem, though forecasts regarding the actual impact of the
bug vary 
		widely.  In ``Y2K,'' the bug causes an East Coast power
outage, ATM 
		failures, airliners whose instruments don't work and other
assorted 
		calamities. Olin's character battles one of the biggest
imagined 
		consequences of the bug when a nuclear power plant threatens
to go into 
		meltdown.  ``Y2K'' also stars Joe Morton (``Terminator 2,''
``The 
		Astronaut's Wife''), Ronny Cox (``Total Recall,'' ``Murder
at 1600'') and 
		Lauren Tom (``Friends,'' ``Futurama''). Dick Lowry (``Atomic
Train'') 
		directs.  Reuters/Variety
