This four-part documentary looks at some of the programs and stars from the
early days of U.S. television. The segment on late night focuses on the
vaudevillian origins of the genre and the Tonight Show, with its three early
stars: Steve Allen, Jack Paar and Johnny Carson. The episode on sitcoms
focuses on the contribution of several classics from the 1950s and 60s
including The Honeymooners, I Love Lucy, The Andy Griffith Show and the Dick
van Dyke Show. The segment on variety shows focuses first on the Ed Sullivan
Show and the hosts ability to book acts that the audience wanted to see.
Others include Milton Berle's show, Sis Caesar's Your Show of Shows, Red
Skelton, Arthur Godfrey and many others. In the final episode, game shows are
the focus. Early game shows had their origins in radio but hit a road block
during the game show scandals where it was revealed that contestants were
being given the answers to questions. The genre eventually re-established
itself and made stars of many of the emcees.
