Newsletter Summer 2017
Newsletter-SUMMER 2017 Since the mid-1980's this organization has been dedicated to honoring Rod Serling—one of the most talented and prolific writers in American television. This newsletter highlights RSMF activities, as well as the continuing interest in Rod Serling in the press... on bookshelves... DVDs and the internet. THE TWILIGHT ZONE COMES HOME On July 15, 2017, nearly two hundred Rod Serling fans attended “The Twilight Zone Comes Home” at the Forum Theatre in Serling’s hometown of Binghamton, New York. Fans traveled from across the country and even from Canada for a full-day celebration of Serling’s love for his hometown. Hosted by the Rod Serling Memorial Foundation, the event featured readings by Rod’s daughters, Anne and Jodi, a screening of the documentary, The Carousel (winner of the 2017 Rod Serling award), a performance of the one-act play Everything I Need to Know I Learned in the Twilight Zone, a panel discussion and Q&A session with the country’s foremost Serling scholars (our very own Board members Tony Albarella, Amy Boyle Johnston, Brian Frey, and Nicholas Parisi, as well as author Mark Dawidziak), and ended with three classic Twilight Zone episodes shown on the big screen: The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street, Time Enough at Last, and Walking Distance (courtesy of CBS, Inc.) Proceeds from the event, which will almost certainly be the first of many such events, will support the Foundation’s continuing efforts to promote and preserve Rod Serling’s legacy. Thank you to all that attended! by Nick Parisi “Twilight Zone Comes Home” July 15, 2017 Forum Theater Binghamton, NY PHOTOS BY: RSMF Board member KATE MURRAY Night Gallery will forever be remembered as Rod Serling’s “other” sci-fi/fantasy/horror series, and a perennial distant cousin to The Twilight Zone. -

The Twilight Zone: Landmark Television Derek Kompare
The Twilight Zone: Landmark Television Derek Kompare From the original edition of How to Watch Television published in 2013 by New York University Press Edited by Ethan Thompson and Jason Mittell Accessed at nyupress.org/9781479898817 This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial- NoDerivatives 4.0 International License (CC BY-NC-ND). 32 The Twilight Zone Landmark Television Derek Kompare Abstract: Few programs in television history are as iconic as Te Twilight Zone, which lingers in cultural memory as one of the medium’s most distinctive aesthetic and cultural peaks. Derek Kompare examines the show’s signature style and voice of its emblematic creator Rod Serling, exploring how the program’s legacy lives on today across genres and eras. As with any other art form, television history is in large part an assemblage of exemplary works. Industrial practices, cultural infuences, and social contexts are certainly primary points of media histories, but these factors are most ofen recognized and analyzed in the form of individual texts: moments when par- ticular forces temporarily converge in unique combinations, which subsequently function as historical milestones. Regardless of a perceived historical trajectory towards or away from “progress,” certain programs have come to represent the confuence of key variables at particular moments: I Love Lucy (CBS, 1951–1957) revolutionized sitcom production; Monday Night Football (ABC, 1970–2005; ESPN, 2005–present) supercharged the symbiotic relationship of sports and tele- vision; Hill Street Blues (NBC, 1981–1987) introduced the “quality” serial drama to primetime. Te Twilight Zone (CBS, 1959–1964) is an anomalous case, simultaneously one of the most important and least representative of such milestones. -

Obsessions, paranoia, wilful acts of self-destruction surround us constantly. Though we age we still hear the cries of those for whom the attraction to mournful chaos is monumental.” Because of this common contemporary feeling, our age can be called, what Teresa Brennan has termed “the age of paranoia” (Brennan 20). Everything we experience seems to belong to a global world of technological information that gives us access to instantaneous “contact”, giving also the feeling that we live in a reality that does not exist, or only exists in our minds as a kind of imaginary construct, leading to what Freud called a fixation in a narcissistic state of being. -

Hollywood Showrunner Gloria CalderÓN Kellett
Hollywood Showrunner Gloria Calderón Kellett Calderón Kellett runs the show. Literally. She’s the co-showrunner and executive producer of Netflix’s One Day at a Time, and with each season, she’d adding more credits to that list: writer, director and actor. She talks with Alicia about her rise through Hollywood’s writers’ rooms (How I Met Your Mother, Devious Maids, and Drunk History), and argues for letting good things be good. And reveals her plans to take her storytelling to the next level. _____________________________________________________________________________________ Alicia Menendez: Hey everybody. Welcome back to Latina to Latina. For this episode, I flew across the country from Miami to meet a fellow Cuban who is getting a lot of buzz in Hollywood. I’m talking about Gloria Calderón Kellett, the Executive Producer and Co-Showrunner of Netflix's One Day at a Time. I even got to visit her office at the Sony Pictures lot, which to be honest, is like most offices except that in the buildings nearby, crews are taping some of America’s favorite TV shows. This rare one-on-one gave me a glimpse into what makes Gloria special, how her mind works, and how her sense of self and her creations are rooted in her upbringing. We're in your offices. Calderón Kellett: We are. See my pictures? Menendez: I got sort of emotional walking up to your office. This is such a big deal, Gloria. Do you remember every day how it’s a big deal? Calderón Kellett: Yeah. Yeah, for sure I remember every day. -

As a young WWII soldier, ROD SERLING finds himself ensnared in the chimerical purgatory that later served as the inspiration for his seminal series “THE TWILIGHT ZONE.” SERIES CONCEPT “I think that ideas exist outside of ourselves. I think somewhere, we're all connected off in some very abstract land. But somewhere between there and here ideas exist.” - David Lynch Every accomplished artist is inevitably asked the same question: Where do you get ideas? Though philosophers, psychiatrists, neurologists and scholars have long striven to solve the mystery of the source of creative inspiration, few do so with any degree of satisfaction. Even artists themselves are unable to articulate the genesis of ideas in anything but the vaguest of terms. Though the pictures we paint, the stories we write, the performances we deliver and the music we compose are profoundly influenced by our skill, our subjective aesthetic instincts and life-experiences, those are but filters through which inspiration passes. -

WEEKSWORTH, DAILY COURIER, Grants Pass, Oregon • FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 2021 THIS WEEK’S HIGHLIGHTS Saturday Wednesday the Goldbergs 90 Day: the Single Life ABC 8 P.M
Daily Courier We e k’sWor th THE TV MAGAZINE SEPTEMBER 25-OCTOBER 1, 2021 Nathan Fillion returns as THE ROOKIE for a fourth season on CBS ‘The Rookie’ returns after cliffhanger drama By Kyla Brewer TV Media Cop shows have been around practically since the dawn of television, and there’s still nothing quite like a good police drama, especially one with a nail-biting cliffhanger season finale. After months of waiting, anxious fans will finally find out what happens when a prime-time hit returns to the airwaves. Nathan Fillion reprises his role as John Nolan, a cop who sets out to find a col- league after she goes missing in the sea- son premiere of “The Rookie,” airing Sun- day on ABC. The debut marks the fourth season of the hour-long drama centered on Nolan, a 40-something cop — and oldest rookie in the history of the LAPD — who works at the Mid-Wilshire Division of the Los Ange- les Police Department. The police drama is the latest in a string of hits for Canadian-American actor Fillion, who rose to fame as Capt. Mal- colm Reynolds in the cult favorite TV series “Firefly” and its subsequent spinoff film, “Serenity” (2005), and as sleuthing mystery writer Richard Castle in the ABC crime drama “Castle.” Born and raised in Edmonton, Fillion moved south to pursue a career in acting, landing roles in TV shows “One Life to Live” and “Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place” and in the movie “Saving Private Ryan” (1998). Now, he’s leading the cast of one of prime time’s highest-rated network series: “The Rookie.” At the end of last season, pregnant Det.
