[GETTING UP THERE - Ted Knight (right) rehearses a scene with Fred MacMurray for a television show to be aired later this month. Knight, a seven-year banana on the "Mary Tyler Moore Show," becomes a top banana Nov. 30 with the "Ted Knight Musical-Comedy Variety Special Special." Not bad for a Polish boy from Terryville, Conn., whose real name is Tedeus Wladyslaw Konopka.]
