About Filmed Television Drama 1952-1958

"The shift from live to filmed television dramas during the period 1952-1958 demanded a new way of working and made possible new types of programming.". "Because of the inherent qualities of filming, television began to feature more documentary-like realism, to include more outer space and supernatural science fiction, and to offer the best dramas and most popular personalities. This study focuses on the important anthology programs and specials that were on the air from 1952 to 1958 such as Kraft Television Theatre, Philco Television Playhouse, and The Hallmark Hall of Fame, filmed serials like Colgate Theatre, Amos 'n' Andy, and I Love Lucy, and the challenge of converting from live to filmed television drama."--BOOK JACKET.
