Los Angeles, Sunday, August 30, 2009 th Los Angeles, Sunday, August 30, 2009 Dear Fellow-Lovers of Daytime Television, On behalf of our board and the loyal members and staff of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS), I welcome you to the 36th annual telecast of the Daytime Entertainment Emmy® Awards. I also would like to welcome our new partners in the telecast, The CW Television Network and Associated Television International. These are difficult times financially for many organizations across the country but especially for non-profit organizations such as NATAS. Nevertheless, we want to assure you that our mission to recognize the best in television by awarding the worldwide standard of excellence, the Emmy® Award, continues undiminished. We have worked tirelessly this year against formidable obstacles to secure that this grand tradition of honoring Daytime Television, the dramas, the talk shows, morning shows, entertainment and food and educational programming goes on national television as it has for the past 36 years. The history of this tradition is especially apparent this year as we salute “Guiding Light” for its many years of Daytime drama programming and our Lifetime Achievement honoree, Sesame Street, for helping educate and entertain children around the world for the last 40 years. With our first Sunday evening telecast, hosted by television and recording star, Vanessa Williams, a Daytime and Primetime Emmy® Award nominee this year, we feel confident that this year’s broadcast THEATRE will be one of our best and a harbinger of a bright future ahead. While thanking our colleagues at the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences and all our sponsors for helping make the 36th Annual Daytime Entertainment Emmy® Awards a memorable event, we especially would like to thank you, the Daytime Community, for your enthusiasm, your talent and your dedication to excellence which we honor this evening.

What's the secret to its staying power? By Michael Davis FORTY YEARS AGO THIS NOVEMBER, a new television show designed to educate and entertain kids hit the PBS airwaves. It was unlike anything else on TV at the time, and it captured the attention of children and parents alike. bday, that same show, Sesame Street, continues to break new ground in children's programming, a feat recognized by the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS), which will grant a Lifetime Achievement Emmy to the long­ running series at this month's Daytime Emmy Awards.

Indeed, you could learn an awful lot about music, literature, art, science, sports, and politics simply by studying the letter A on Sesame Street's lengthy list of guest stars. It includes legendary dance-company founder Alvin Ailey, moon-walking astro­ naut Buzz Aldrin, beloved novelist and poet Maya Angelou, former secretary gen­ eral of the United Nations Kofi Annan, and barrier-breaking athlete Arthur Ashe. (tNififill®i!ffiffJ!fffiM£1@1) Sesame Str·eet's formula of mixing puppetry, animation, short films, original music, and an ensemble cast still provides an alchemy that entrances as it informs. "It's a total con­ nect with children;' says Kevin Clash, who produces and directs some of Sesame's epi­ sodes but is best known as the Muppeteer behind ever-popular Elmo. The show's ratings may not be what they once were, thanks in part to the proliferation of quality preschool shows on Nickelodeon, Disney Channel, and Noggin. Still, Sesame remains its demographic's most beneficial tries to program. No other series better stimulates the growing child's intellectual, emotional, and social development. "We offer a whole­ child curriculum," says Rosemary Truglio, vice president for education and research for Sesame Workshop (formerly Children's Television Workshop). The old adage "The more things change, the more they stay the same" does not apply to Sesame StTeet.

  • Happy Birthday! Two Peds in a Pod Turns Six Years Old!
    Happy Birthday! Two Peds in a Pod turns Six Years Old! Caroll Spinney, a.k.a. Bird Bird and Oscar the Grouch, addresses the American Academy of Pediatrics National Conference in 2011 (Dr. Lai’s iPhone 3 or 4 captured this “high” quality photo) Today, as Two Peds in a Pod turns six years old, we think about our favorite six-year-old, Big Bird. A friend sent me this link to an interview with Caroll Spinney on NPR. Now 81 years old, Caroll Spinney has played Big Bird on Sesame Street since the show first aired in 1969. According to the puppeteer, Big Bird has always been six years old. Spinney wanted Big Bird to forever bubble over with the curiosity and enthusiasm for learning which characterize a six year old’s development. In kindergarten or first grade, a six-year-old rapidly gains new skills. They learn how to read at this age if not earlier. They like to belong to a group and feel included. Sit in the back of a first grade classroom and listen to the class have a conversation. The teacher may ask the kids, “Who has ever been to the ocean?” and watch all the hands go up. As she calls on each child to tell his story about going to the beach, some kids tell about their beach vacations, some talk about which relative or friend they visited at the beach, and at least one six-year-old will say “I never saw the ocean, but I have a dog!” because they want so desperately to belong to the conversation.

Fox. The shows they wrote for included “The Honeymooners,” ‘The Phil Silvers Show,” “The Red Skelton Hour,” Bob Hope specials, “Here’s Lucy,” “All in the Family,” and “Maude.” These five writers were working in the earliest days of the medium and spent years writing for the personalities—from performers to producers—who pioneered and defined it. Most of them also wrote scripts during one of broadcast television’s greatest periods of transformation, when comedy took a decidedly topical turn that continued to have a significant impact on television comedy in the decades that followed. iii Table of Contents Introduction ……………………………..….……………….……..……1 Chapter One: Sydney Zelinka ……………………………....…..….…..15 Chapter Two: Larry Rhine ……………………………………......……32 Chapter Three: Milt Josefsberg ……………………...…….…...…....…58 Chapter Four: Seaman Jacobs and Fred S.
