Description:
The stars, the writers, the producers and those who almost made it big... Inside Television's Greatest reveals the answers to all the questions you've been dying to ask, and tells the secrets you wouldn't imagine to be true. Explore the creative process that brings an idea, and the characters of a new world, to life. Crawl inside the actors' heads and experience life in television from both sides of the camera. Understand the complex decisions and strange chain of events that bring the relative nameless to unequaled fame...and how one word can force them into obscurity. With Inside Television's Greatest, you'll never get closer to the shows that have brought so much joy, sadness and laughter into our lives. Few television shows will ever generate the mass appeal that keep them on the air for 50 years. I Love Lucy has captivated audiences since 1951 with its fresh, offbeat brand of humor that set the standard for every sitcom to follow. By blending styles from vaudeville and classic radio shows with startling innovations in production and writing, Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz created an empire based on the infamous legend that was nearly cancelled after its first season. What happened? Inside Television's Greatest gives the answer to that tantalizing question, and many more, including: • What was "the monster" that stayed with the studios for 30 years? • What event took place on the show that became "the biggest thing in television history"? • How was it arranged so that Desi got top billing on the show while Lucy's more well known name was the focus of the title? • Who was registered with the Communist Party and threatened the success of the show?
