Protagonistas De Inolvidables Series Participan En El Documental “Pioneros De La Televisión” Protagonistas de inolvidables series participan en el documental “Pioneros de la televisión” Una atractiva y nostálgica propuesta documental llega a la TV de pago. Se trata de “Pioneros de la televisión”, investigación audiovisual que da cuenta de la influyente historia de las grandes series estadounidense de la pantalla chica. Nominado a dos Emmy, el trabajo audiovisual entremezcla valiosas entrevistas actuales y material de archivo inédito para contar y recordar las historias que marcaron algunos de los más llamativos géneros. En cuatro episodios, se relatan las experiencias profesionales de más de 200 actores que forman parte de series que siguen en la memoria de varias generaciones de espectadores. El estreno en América Latina es el martes 5 de septiembre, a las 21 horas, por Film & Arts. “Pioneros de la televisión” da a conocer relatos de figuras como Larry Hagman, William Shatner, Joan Collins y Richard Chamberlain, quienes formaron parte de una propuesta incipiente y proporcionaron un escape esencial para los millones de espectadores que esperaban ansiosos cada capítulo de su serie favorita. Episodio 1: Ciencia ficción Los seres humanos siempre han contemplado las estrellas con una cuota de fascinación y miedo. A principios de la década de 1960, una serie de innovadores novelistas, productores y actores empiezan a jugar con estas ideas en la pequeña pantalla con programas como Star Trek, Lost in Space y The Twilight Zone. A lo largo de este episodio William Shatner y Leonard Nimoy -Capitán James T. Kirk y Mr. Spock, respectivamente, en Star Trek- muestran una visión sorprendente de la icónica serie. Además de una entrevista inédita con Rod Serling, guionista de “La dimensión desconocida”, en que revela sus episodios favoritos de esta serie y su inocente opinión sobre Star Trek. Se emite un metraje único que incluye a Nimoy interpretando a un joven alienígena en la película de 1952, “Zombis de la estratosfera”. Este capítulo también ofrece una nueva visión del primer beso interracial de la televisión: mientras que Nichelle Nichols declara que nunca ocurrió, William Shatner se muestra en profundo desacuerdo. Episodio 2: Primetime Protagonistas de inolvidables series participan en el documental “Pioneros de la televisión” “Dallas” y “Dinastía” dan inicio el frenesí de las novelas de la noche a finales de los años 70, un fenómeno que continúa durante la última temporada de “Knots Landing” en 1993. Este capítulo ofrece nuevos y sorprendentes detalles sobre el legendario episodio «Who Shot JR» de “Dallas” y revela el backstage con entrevistas a las personalidades que dan forma a “Dinastía” y “Knots Landing”, entre los que se destacan Joan Collins, Linda Evans y Diahann Carroll («Dinastía»), Larry Hagman, Patrick Duffy, Linda Gray y Charlene Tilton («Dallas»), Barbara Eden («Mi bella genio») y Michele Lee, Joan Van Ark y Donna Mills («California»), entre otros. Episodio 3: Miniseries Las miniseries siguen figurando entre los programas mejor valorados de la historia de la televisión. Este episodio se centra en las primeras miniseries -como «Hombre rico, hombre pobre»-, en legendarias como «Raíces» y en otras románticas como «El pájaro canta hasta morir». Este tercer capítulo de «Pioneros de la televisión» incluye entrevistas a Peter Strauss y Susan Blakely («Hombre rico, hombre pobre»), LeVar Burton, Ben Vereen, John Amos y Leslie Uggams («Raíces») y Richard Chamberlain, Rachel Ward y Bryan Brown («El pájaro canta hasta morir»). Episodio 4: Policiales Las primeras series policiacas establecen nuevas reglas para los espectadores, incrementando la violencia e incluyendo diálogos rápidos y un nuevo tipo de héroe capaz de resolver complejos crímenes en una deliciosa hora de televisión, con series como «Yo soy espía» o «La mujer policía». Este cuarto capítulo incluye entrevistas a Robert Culp y Bill Cosby («Yo, espía»), Angie Dickinson («La mujer policía»), Peter Graves, Martin Landau y Barbara Bain («Misión imposible»), Mike Connors («Mannix), James Garner («Los casos de Rockford») y Stefanie Powers («Hart to Hart»), entre otros..

    New On Video & DVD Yes Man Jim Carrey returns to hilarious form with this romantic comedy in the same vein as the Carrey classic Liar Liar. After a few stints in more serious features like Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind and The Number 23, Carrey seems right at home playing Carl, a divorcé who starts out the film depressed and withdrawn, scared of taking a risk. Pressured by his best friend, Peter (Bradley Cooper), to get his act together or be stuck with a lonely life, Carl attends a New Age self-help seminar intended to change "no men" like Carl into "yes men" willing to meet life's challenges with gusto. Carl is reluctant at first, but finds the seminar to be ultimately life-changing when he's coerced into giving the "say yes" attitude a try. As the first opportunity to say yes presents itself, Carl hesitantly utters the three-letter word, setting the stage for a domino effect of good rewards, and giving Carrey a platform to show off his comic chops. But over time Carl realizes that saying yes to everything indiscriminately can reap results as complicated and messy as his life had become when saying "no" was his norm. The always-quirky Zooey Deschanel adds her signature charm as Carl's love interest, Allison. An unlikely match at first glance, the pair actually develop great chemistry as the story progresses, the actors play- ing off each other's different styles of humor. Rhys Darby also shines as Carl's loveable but clueless boss, and That 70s Show's Danny Masterson appears as another one of Carl's friends.

  • American History: Life in the 1970S and '80S
    26 January 2012 | MP3 at voaspecialenglish.com American History: Life in the 1970s and '80s Reuters Cast members of "Dallas" accept the pop culture award at the TV Land awards show in 2006 in Santa Monica, California. The awards honor classic shows and performers. From left: Charlene Tilton, Linda Gray, Larry Hagman, Patrick Duffy, Sheree Wilson, Mary Crosby, Susan Howard, Ken Kercheval and Steve Kanaly. STEVE EMBER: Welcome to THE MAKING OF A NATION -- American history in VOA Special English. I'm Steve Ember. This week in our series, we look back at some of the social issues and cultural changes in America in the nineteen seventies and eighties. (MUSIC) In some ways, the nineteen eighties seemed like the opposite of the nineteen sixties. The sixties were years of protest for social justice and change. Many Americans demonstrated against the Vietnam War. Blacks demonstrated for civil rights. Women demonstrated for equality. Many people welcomed new social programs created by the government. By the nineteen eighties, however, many people seemed more concerned with themselves than with helping society. To them, success was measured mainly by how much money a person made. People wanted to live the good life, and that took money. 2 The changes started to become evident during the nineteen seventies. For a while, these years brought a continuation of the social experiments and struggles of the sixties. But then people began to see signs of what society would be like in the eighties. There were a number of reasons for this change. One reason was the end to America's military involvement in Vietnam after years of war.

  • Kvinderne Og Dallas
    Elektronisk version af artikel i Analyser af TV, ISBN 87-7332-102-8, Forlaget Medusa 1985 Anne Hjort Kvinderne og Dallas Den amerikanske W-serie Dallas forblev fra premieren i julen 1980, indtil det sidste 71. afsnit blev sendt to år senere, lidt af en sensation i dansk W. Med et overordentlig stort seertal på 2.9 millioner i starten og 2.4 millioner til slut er Dallas blevet set i alle samfundsgrupper - men alligevel ikke lige meget. Dal- las har været mest populær hos kvinderne. Det er kvinderne - og de kvindelige erfaringer - i Dailas og foran Dallas, der står centralt i den folgende artikel. Sporgsrnålet om Dallas' fascination og værdi for specielt dens kvindelige seere soges nemlig ikke alene besvaret ud fra en indholdsanalyse af serien, men også udfra interviews med kvinder om deres faktiske oplevel- se af serien og af en konkret episode, 'Julie vender tilba- ge', sendt i danskfjernsyn den 21. august 1981. Dallas er interessant, ikke mindst i lyset af den aktu- elle mediepolitiske situation i Europa, hvor W-satellit- ter og kabel-TV vil betyde en voldsom forogelse af TV- udbuddet og W-forbruget. Det er en situation, hvis kul- turpolitiske konsekvenser er usikre, men som med ga- ranti medforer én ting - vi får mere 'Dallas'. Dallas-serien Den fnrste episode af Dallas blev vist i USA i april 1978. Seriens ojeblikkelige succes betod, at CBS generobrede pladsen som 'the top prime-time network' fra ABC, som derefter straks gik i gang med at producere 'modserien' Dynasty (Dollars). Dallas' plof er folgende: Jock Ewing (som spilles af westernfilmveteranen Jim Davis) og Digger Barnes indgår engang i 30'erne et partnerskab.

  • Dallas (1978 TV Series)
    Dallas (1978 TV series) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This article is about the original 1978–1991 television series. For the sequel, see Dallas (2012 TV series). Dallas is a long-running American prime time television soap opera that aired from April 2, 1978, to May 3, 1991, on CBS. The series revolves around a wealthy and feuding Texan family, the Ewings, who own the independent oil company Ewing Oil and the cattle-ranching land of Southfork. The series originally focused on the marriage of Bobby Ewing and Pamela Barnes, whose families were sworn enemies with each other. As the series progressed, oil tycoon J.R. Ewing grew to be the show's main character, whose schemes and dirty business became the show's trademark.[1] When the show ended in May 1991, J.R. was the only character to have appeared in every episode. The show was famous for its cliffhangers, including the Who shot J.R.? mystery. The 1980 episode Who Done It remains the second highest rated prime-time telecast ever.[2] The show also featured a "Dream Season", in which the entirety of the ninth season was revealed to have been a dream of Pam Ewing's. After 14 seasons, the series finale "Conundrum" aired in 1991. The show had a relatively ensemble cast. Larry Hagman stars as greedy, scheming oil tycoon J.R. Ewing, stage/screen actressBarbara Bel Geddes as family matriarch Miss Ellie and movie Western actor Jim Davis as Ewing patriarch Jock, his last role before his death in 1981. The series won four Emmy Awards, including a 1980 Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series win for Bel Geddes.

    New On Video & DVD Dallas Season 12 Having avoided getting shot by his frustrated wife, Sue Ellen (Linda Gray), at the end of Dallas' 11th season, ruthless oil tycoon J.R. Ewing (Larry Hagman) decides to relax a bit as season 12 gets under way. Embarking on a hunting trip to Arkansas, serial philanderer J.R. has brief tryst with hillbilly gal Cally Harper (Cathy Podewell) which turns out to be a major mistake when Cally's brothers, in cahoots with a crooked sheriff, contrive to have J.R. arrested and sentenced to a work farm! In order to save himself, J.R. agrees to divorce Sue Ellen and marry Cally who isn't quite as vacuous and guileless as she looks. Once J.R. and Cally are hitched, the vengeful Sue Ellen purchases a movie studio for the express purpose of collaborating with screenwriter Don Lockwood (Ian McShane) on a shocking filmed exposé of J.R. and his highly questionable business practices. (This collaboration reaps unexpected benefits when Sue Ellen and Lockwood are married!) Season twelve marks the exit of two longtime Dallas regulars: Steve Kanaly and his character, J.R.'s half brother, Ray Krebbs, bid farewell early in the season; and by mid-year, Linda Gray (aka Sue Ellen) is also gone. Conversely, Audrey Landers as Afton Cooper, former sister-in-law of J.R.'s niece Lucy (Charlene Tilton), returns after an absence of several seasons. Newcomers to the cast include George Kennedy as rival oil man Carter McKay, who after purchasing Ray Krebbs' ranch takes over Westar Oil and mounts a range war (both literal and figurative) against the Ewing family, hoping not only to destroy J.R.
