      @garyfrancis6193 3 роки тому +1

      Yeah. There was a great resurgence of popularity of westerns after WW2 that led into TV in the 50’s and even the. 60’s. I think after WW2 people wanted to return to the simpler times of the Old West after seeing how technology developed that could kill millions with the atomic bomb. That was the Atomic Age. The word “nuclear “ had not become widely used except in the “nuclear family” which meant something completely different. At the time people were living under the threat of the Cold War and wanted to escape to simpler times when people rode horses, there were no cars and had simple well defined values. This of course was an abstraction invented by Hollywood in the movies. It was a fantasy which was whyit was so appealing. It never was true only an idealized interpretation of the past.

    Thank you for posting the 26 new TV shows of 1957. It's always good to learn about how certain shows that are shown in reruns got their start. Unfortunately, other shows have been lost in the network vaults, with kinescope/ regular film negatives destroyed. I would like to see Joan Caulfield's Sally series to see what that show was like.

      Edward R. Murrow would have disagreed with you. During his address at the Radio and Television News Directors Association convention on October 15, 1958, he stated:
      *"Our history will be what we make it. And if there are any historians about fifty or a hundred years from now, and there should be preserved the kinescopes for one week of all three networks, they will there find recorded in black and white, or perhaps in color, evidence of decadence, escapism and insulation from the realities of the world in which we live. I invite your attention to the television schedules of all networks between the hours of 8 and 11 p.m., Eastern Time. Here you will find only fleeting and spasmodic reference to the fact that this nation is in mortal danger. There are, it is true, occasional informative programs presented in that intellectual ghetto on Sunday afternoons. But during the daily peak viewing periods, television in the main insulates us from the realities of the world in which we live. If this state of affairs continues, we may alter an advertising slogan to read: LOOK NOW, AND PAY LATER."*

Tombstone Territory was a very good show and Combat, Untouchables Peter Gunn and Perry Mason , Alfred Hitchcock , Thriller . 50s television was an experiment in entertainment and many shows were shot Live and were done in one take as the mistakes were fixed by a good cast who improvised and kept going with the show. Also the Live commercials were on 3 products rather than the hundreds nowadays .

      NBC was the network that was really "pushing" color that season (about a dozen of their prime-time shows- most of them variety shows- were in color). CBS had only ONE weekly show in color: "THE RED SKELTON SHOW". ABC had neither the money or the resources to transmit ANY color programming at the time.

    These shows debuted a little over a month after I was born. Any wonder I wanted to grow up to be a cowboy. Some, I was only aware of by name, like Sugarfoot, and only because I remember older sibs mentioning it. Others, I remember watching first run, Like Maverick, Wagon Train, and Have Gun Will Travel. The variety show? Don't remember a single one of them, while sit-coms like Leave It To Beaver I watched first run. Bachelor Father, I recall the references, but never saw it until the 1980s, when I was a married father. Don't recognize it? Uncle raises his sibling's child after her parents die. Some old memories here
    Westerns were the life blood of TV at the time, but their days were numbered, as just a few weeks later, the Space Age ramped up with the launch of Sputnik. (Oct 4, 1957, exact 2 months after I was launched in this world)

    The original (and best) "Perry Mason", shown over here in UK on the BBC. Fascinating to recall that its two leads (Raymond Burr and William Thalman) had usually played villains in many of the classic "Films Noir" of the late 40s/early 50s. Truly a golden age of TV..

    • @tomservo56954
      @tomservo56954 8 років тому

      Burr had actually auditioned for the role of Hamilton Burger, as the show had been developed with Fred MacMurray in mind for Mason. He, of course, turned it down (remember, he only agreed to do MY THREE SONS on the condition all his scenes would be filmed in a two-month window). They did like Burr as a replacement, but felt he was too hefty to play the part--he dieted off 120 pounds

    Looking at the IMDB, the final clip is not from a weekly program but proably from "The Edsel Show", which was the most popular special of the year, (even if the car wasn't), and which is renowned for one of the first uses of videotape. They kinescoped the show anyway in case the tape didn't work and this looks like it's from the kinescope. There was a "Frank Sinatra Show" but that was from 1950-52.

    Maverick, Zorro, Leave it to Beaver, and Perry Mason will last forever. It most be easy to do country all the time in the 1957 especially from the MGM backlots.
    "The Big Record" should have been called the 45s.
    At least with most of the actress there was no Photoshop to fix them up.

    I took the time to read through the past comments, and it seems to me that many young people watching this video find the shows profiled here "boring." You see kids, many of these shows were programs that told "stories" to entertain their audience, who were not afflicted with attention spans quicker than a jackrabbit on speed. You also had musical variety shows that catered to an audience that didn't expect their performers to do outrageous things for shock value or act like fools in public. The musical programs back then weren't "reality/competitions" where the performers have no discernible style of their own and merely sound and look like carbon copies of each other. Oh yeah, another thing: Westerns back then were what people wanted to see, so maybe the networks did go a little bit overboard with them, but a number of the shows are considered among the greatest TV shows ever created (e.g.: Perry Mason, Maverick, Have Gun Will Travel). So maybe you should look at this as a historic account and not so much as nostalgia. And if you DO find this boring, please feel free to look for a video that is more to your liking. I yield the floor to the next commenter.

    I think my first year of watching regular TV shows were in 1955. Two that I remember were Topper and Noah. But I did not really watch Noah. It was just on, while my mother watched it. It looked boring to me. Topper was interesting though. I guess both series were gone by 1957.
