  • A Historical/Critical Analysis of the Tv Series the Fugitive
    A HISTORICAL/CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE TV SERIES THE FUGITIVE THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE By David P. Pierson, B.S. Denton, Texas May, 1993 Pierson, David P., A Historical/Critical Analysis Of The TV Series The Fugitive. Master of Science (Radio/TV/Film), May 1993, 168 pp., bibliography, 70 titles. In many respects, the popular 1960's television series, The Fugitive perfectly captured the swelling disillusionment with authority, alienation, and discontent that soon encompassed American society. This historical/critical study provides a broad overview of the economic, social, and political climate that surrounded the creation of The Fugitive. The primary focus of this study is the analysis of five discursive topics (individualism, marriage, justice & authority, professionalism, science and technology) within selected episodes and to show how they relate to broader cultural debates which occurred at that time. Finally, this study argues that The Fui1gitive is a part of a television adventure subgenre which we may classify as the contemporary "wanderer-hero" narrative and traces its evolution through selected television series from the last three decades.

  • The Prayer Lines Behind the Bylines
    Two biological brothers could not have shared a bond closer than the one that was forged between educator Timothy Hauprich and Rev. Anthony Maione during their years together at Saratoga Central Catholic High School. Common interests included the ABCs of athletics, birds and community service. My Highway to Heaven journey with Father Tony Special guest chapter by Timothy J. Hauprich From September 1984 to June 1988 there was a popular TV show featuring the characters Jonathan Smith and Mark Gordon. Jonathan was an angel portrayed by Michael Landon — who had earlier become famous for his characters on Bonanza and Little House on The Prairie. Mark was an ex-cop portrayed by Victor French. The show was called Highway to Heaven and was not about NASCAR. It had no car chases and did not necessarily showcase beautiful women, but rather focuses on a pair of highway travelers intervening on the lives of ordinary people who were challenged by real life problems. I had no idea that by 1991 I would be the Mark Gordon character balancing Father Tony’s real life portrayal of Jonathan Smith. It was with memories of this program in mind that I wrote the eulogy that follows in letter form to be shared with those who attended a Memorial Service for the Rev. Anthony Maione at St. Peter’s Roman Catholic Church in Saratoga Springs, NY in 2006. 134 The Rev. Anthony Maione is seen (above) coaching along side SCC Athletic Director Timothy Hauprich at a drug-free powerlifting tournament in 1991; rolling up his sleeves with Tim at a Legends of the Fall event in 1994; attending to his Campus Minister duties at Saratoga Central Catholic High in 1998; and feeding Larry Bird -- who was left in Tim's care after the priest's untimely passing in 2006.

  • GUNSMOKE TV CAST and DETAILS Premiered
    GUNSMOKE TV CAST AND DETAILS Premiered: September 10, 1955, on CBS Rating: TV-PG Premise: This landmark adult Western centered on Marshal Matt Dillon of Dodge City. John Wayne turned down the lead, suggesting James Arness (who remained for its entire run). Originating on radio (with William Conrad as Dillon), it moved to TV in September 1955. Its popularity spawned a number of copycats, but none would enjoy the longevity (and few the consistent quality) of this classic. Airing for 20 years, it's TV's longest running prime-time drama (a record that `Law & Order' is currently chasing). Gunsmoke Cast • James Arness : Marshal Matt Dillon • Milburn Stone : Dr. Galen `Doc' Adams • Amanda Blake : Kitty Russell • Dennis Weaver : Chester Goode • Ken Curtis : Festus Haggen • Burt Reynolds : Quint Asper • James Nusser : Louie Pheeters • Charles Seel : Barney Danches • Howard Culver : Howie Culver • Tom Brown : Ed O'Connor • John Harper : Percy Crump • Dabbs Greer : Mr. Jonus • George Selk : Moss Grimmick • Hank Patterson : Hank Miller • Glenn Strange : Sam • Sarah Selby : Ma Smalley • Ted Jordan : Nathan Burke • Roger Ewing : Clayton Thaddeus `Thad' Greenwood • Roy Roberts : Mr. Bodkin • Woody Chamblis : Mr. Lathrop • Buck Taylor : Newly O'Brien • Charles Wagenheim : Halligan • Pat Hingle : Dr. John Chapman • Fran Ryan : Miss Hannah Gunsmoke Credits • Sam Peckinpah : Screenwriter Gunsmoke Directors • Harry Horner : Director Gunsmoke Guest Cast • Aaron Saxon : Basset • Aaron Spelling : Weed Pindle • Abraham Sofaer : Harvey Easter • Adam West : Hall

No More Mr. Nice Angel Abstract Angels have occupied a prominent role in world religions and Western culture for centuries. The existence of multiple supernatural beings with varying degrees of hierarchical standing was a given for the polytheistic cultures that represented the majority of religious expressions in the ancient world. The inclusion of these supernatural beings in the three great monotheistic faiths of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam was significant because these faiths sought in ve ery way to emphasize the supremacy of the one God in contrast to the crowded spiritual field of polytheistic faiths. Angels could be problematic because they potentially provided a host of supernatural entities competing alongside the one God.

  • Charro! (1969) Directed by Charles Marquis Warren
    Albatross of Elvis By Christina Harlin, your Fearless Young Orphan Charro! (1969) Directed by Charles Marquis Warren Charro! is a better film than you’d expect, because you see that it stars Elvis Presley as a gunslinger trying to go straight, and you think, “Oh holy hell, that’s gotta be terrible or hilarious,” because most Elvis Presley movies were terrible and hilarious, which doesn’t mean that they weren’t often fun. So then you might watch Charro! expecting more of the same, and it turns out to be an earnest tale of revenge and redemption in the old southwest. Here’s Elvis playing the role of Jess Wade, a regretful man uncertain of how to make things right without resorting to his old criminal ways. He never picks up a guitar or breaks into song (Elvis only sings the movie’s theme which appears over the opening credits). And in fact, Elvis disappears from the film for long segments as the story focuses on other characters. “Well I’ll be damned,” you say, “This is a real western, and it’s not half-bad.” But then, here’s the problem. Charro! is also a rather worse film than you’d expect, for basically the same reasons. You were like me, and visited the world of Charro! because it’s an Elvis movie, and you were expecting that he’d pick up a guitar and break into song, and that things would be terrible and hilarious. Then you wind up with this serious western tale of revenge and redemption which would have been a much finer film if they had gotten someone besides Elvis Presley to play the role of Jess Wade, because Elvis Presley couldn’t act.
