  • The History of CBS New York Television Studios: 1937-1965
    1 The History of CBS New York Television Studios: 1937-1965 By Bobby Ellerbee and Eyes of a Generation.com Preface and Acknowledgements This is the first known chronological listing that details the CBS television studios in New York City. Included in this exclusive presentation by and for Eyes of a Generation, are the outside performance theaters and their conversion dates to CBS Television theaters. This compilation gives us the clearest and most concise guide yet to the production and technical operations of television’s early days and the efforts at CBS to pioneer the new medium. This story is told to the best of our abilities, as a great deal of the information on these facilities is now gone…like so many of the men and women who worked there. I’ve told this as concisely as possible, but some elements are dependent on the memories of those who were there many years ago, and from conclusions drawn from research. If you can add to this with facts or photos, please contact me, as this is an ongoing project. (Second Revision: June, 2021). Eyes of a Generation would like to offer a huge thanks to the many past and present CBS people that helped, but most especially to television historian and author David Schwartz (GSN), and Gady Reinhold (CBS 1966 to 2019), for their first-hand knowledge, photos and help. Among the distinguished CBS veterans providing background information are Dr. Joe Flaherty, George Sunga, Dave Dorsett, Allan Brown, Locke Wallace, Rick Scheckman, Jim Hergenrather, Craig Wilson and Bruce Martin.

  • Ife of John Candy by Martin Knelman
    ; adapted from 2) THE IFE OF JOHN CANDY BY MARTIN KNELMAN published by Penguin Canada, 1996 Animal House, and still had his biggest success, Ghostbusters, ahead of him. The same summer Stripes came out, another Reitman-produced film was released. Heavy Metal, a Canadian production directed by National Film Board veteran Gerald Potterton, was a full-length animation feature based on the monthly magazine. It featured an anthology of hip sci-fi stories, rock music, and the speaking JOIE CANDY voices of well-known actors. The episodes are of highly variable quality, but John Candy was involved in two of the funniest. First he plays a deprived suburban teenager who finds sexual opportunity on another planet. And then he's hilarious as a squeaky-voiced robot having a wild affair with In Stripes, a 1981 Hollywood comedy about U.S. a voluptuous human, female and Jewish, who resists his Army dunderheads who accidentally turn into great national proposal on the grounds that mixed marriages never work. heroes, John Candy landed the best role of his movie career up to that time. As an oversize recruit named Dewey Reitman took on the job of directing Stripes as well as Oxberger, known as Ox to his buddies, Candy drew laughs producing it, with a script by Reitman's longtime collaborator, just by waddling across the screen. Dan Goldberg, and Goldberg's partner, Len Blum. Shrewdly, Reitman gave the film the feeling of a Second City escapade There's a bit of autobiographical truth to Candy's lines not only by casting Bill Murray, Harold Ramis and John when Ox tells the other recruits why he decided to Candy but also by including entertaining cameo turns by enlist."You might have noticed," he remarks sarcastically, "I Dave Thomas and Joe Flaherty.

  • SCTV NETWORK to SESAME STREET SCTV Network Fri 11:45
    SCTV NETWORK to SESAME STREET SCTV Network Fri 11:45-12:45 a.m., 19 Sep 1980-10 Sep 1981 One of the most brilliantly self-aware comedy series on television since the innovations of Ernie Kovacs, SCTV evolved from the stage work of the Toronto company of Second City, and followed the lead of NBC's Saturday Night Live, which had attracted talent, such as Dan Aykroyd and Gilda Radner, from the Canadian Second City troupe. The program had been produced by Andrew Alexander and Old Firehall Productions (named after the Toronto theatre that is Second City's home) since 1977 under contract to Global Television, and was originally taped in the splendid, though ultimately stifling, isolation of Edmonton. As the show syndicated widely in Canada and the U.S.A., and earned money, it could afford to return to Toronto and its more expensive production facilities. Television was undoubtedly the principal source for both Saturday Night Live and SCTV. Where the former was both liberated and bound by its live-to-air format and its status as hip vaudeville, SCTV was shaped as a studio production and, for the most part, as the signal of an actual television network in a town called Melonville. The owner of the station was a cheap, unscrupulous, sneering bastard, Guy Caballero, played by Joe Flaherty. He typically wore white suits and hats and, although he was perfectly ambulatory, masqueraded as a paraplegic in a wheelchair in order to gain respect he did not otherwise deserve. In other words, he accurately mimicked the men in the higher echelons of private television in Canada.

  • Second City Or Second Country? the Question of Canadian Identity in SCTV's Transcultural Text
    Second City or Second Country? The Question of Canadian Identity in SCTV's Transcultural Text Erin Hanna (Cineaction 79 2009) Take off, eh? When SCTV began broadcasting its programming day on September 21, 1976, Canadian viewers were introduced to a new brand of television satire that would develop and grow with the show for its eight-year run. Between 1976 and 1984, SCTV moved from a local Canadian television station, to North American syndication, to American network television and, finally, to pay-TV. The show was composed of a series of sketches woven together with recurring characters and behind-the-scenes narratives about the machinations of a fictional television network called SCTV. Though SCTV satirized and parodied American popular culture, two of the show’s most successful characters were Bob and Doug McKenzie (Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas), simple-minded Canadian brothers whose primary interests in life included beer, back bacon, and finding “topics” for their two-minute show, “Great White North.” The McKenzie Brothers were a huge sensation in Canada.1 Most tellingly, in 1981, an Ottawa fan nominated Moranis and Thomas for the Order of Canada for their contribution to “our cultural sense of identity.”2 In 1982, Thomas and Moranis produced the comedy album Great White North, which sold 350,000 records in Canada and made the Billboard top ten in the U.S.3 The pair even wrote, directed, and starred in a 1983 film featuring the two characters, Strange Brew. Though it received mixed reviews, Strange Brew has since become a cult classic in North America and the brothers are still intimately connected with Canadian identity.4 In “How to Get a Mouse in Your Beer Bottle” (1982), Rick Salutin argued that the tradition of Canadian entertainers who imitate “a certain typical Canadian style” for laughs was nothing new, but that Thomas and Moranis did not fall into the same tradition of “Canadian self-putdown.”5 Salutin saw the pair differently.

  • The Second City's
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 26, 2018 The Second City’s “Look Both Ways Before Talking” Plays the Lincoln March 29 & 30 The Second City’s latest sketch comedy and improv revue, Look Both Ways Before Talking, is an evening of wildly original, ever-daring, and truly hilarious scripted scenes, music, and improvisation chock full of social and political satire. Edgy, thought-provoking, and always spectacularly funny, The Second City is celebrating nearly six decades of producing cutting- edge, satirical revues and launching the careers of generation after generation of comedy’s best and brightest. CAPA presents The Second City Touring Company: Look Both Ways Before Talking at the Lincoln Theatre (769 E. Long St.) on Thursday, March 29, at 8pm and Friday, March 30, at 8 pm. Tickets are $30 and $35 at the CAPA Ticket Center (39 E. State St.), all Ticketmaster outlets, and www.ticketmaster.com. To purchase tickets by phone, please call (614) 469-0939 or (800) 745-3000. The Second City opened its doors on a snowy Chicago night in December 1959. No one could have guessed that this small cabaret theatre would become the most influential and prolific comedy theatre in the world. With its roots in the improvisational games of Viola Spolin, The Second City developed an entirely unique way of creating and performing comedy. Founded by Spolin’s son, Paul Sills, along with Howard Alk and Bernie Sahlins, The Second City was experimental and unconventional in its approach to both theatre and comedy. At a time when mother-in-law jokes were more the fashion, The Second City railed against the conformist culture with scenes that spoke to a younger generation.
