  • Bye Bye Birdie"
    MEDIA CONTACT Natalie Kojen [email protected] April 6, 2011 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ACADEMY TO PREMIERE NEW RESTORATION OF 1963 MUSICAL COMEDY "BYE BYE BIRDIE" BEVERLY HillS, CA - The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will premiere a new digital restoration of "Bye Bye Birdie" on Wednesday, April 27, at 7:30 p.m. at the Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills. Hosted by film critic Stephen Farber, the evening will feature a Digital Cinema presentation with a newly restored 4- channel stereo soundtrack, followed by an onstage discussion with special guests Ann­ Margret and Bobby Rydell. Just five years after Elvis Presley was drafted into the army, the satirical "Bye Bye Birdie" had already been written, staged on Broadway, and turned into a film . When singing sensation Conrad Birdie (Jesse Pearson) is drafted, songwriter Albert Peterson (Dick Van Dyke) and his girlfriend, Rosie Deleon (Janet leigh), arrange for Birdie to sing one of Peterson's songs in a farewell performance on "The Ed Sullivan Show." To heighten the drama, the rock 'n' roll star is to give a goodbye kiss to a lucky young lady (Ann-Margret) from a small Ohio town - much to the dismay of her steady beau (Rydell) and parents (Paul Lynde and Mary LaRoche). Directed by George Sidney, this vibrant adaptation of the successful Broadway musical comedy earned Oscar" nominations for both Music and Sound, and features a range of songs, from the youthful "A lot of Livin' to Do" to the parentally angled "Kids. " For updates on special guests, visit www.oscars.org.

Paul Lynde, No Hollywood SquareBy Donald ThackerSince I was a child I loved the work of Paul Lynde. Through the years the only information I ever had was just innuendo and rumor. Finally this wonderfully honest and sweet book tells all the truths and all the stories of this great comic. Prefaced with the story of Cathy Rudolph, a teenage fan who contacted Lynde and became a very good friend, her writing pulls no punches on his personal life. From being one of tv's most famous comics to a lonely and caustic alcoholic, Rudolf paints a loving portrait of the man she came to know. Even if you have no idea of who Lynde was, the story is a fascinating sketch of a gay man living and dealing with the insecurities of show business in the 50's, 60's, and 70's.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.

  • Camp TV: Trans Gender Queer Sitcom History by Quinlan Miller
    Reviewed by Ken Feil Camp TV: Trans Gender Queer Sitcom History by Quinlan Miller. Duke University Press. 2019. 232 pages. $99.95 hardcover; $25.95 paper; also available in e-book. In Camp TV: Trans Gender Queer Sitcom History, Quinlan Miller presents a revelatory historical reassessment of the US network sitcom of the 1950s and 1960s in addition to rethinking camp, an ironic performance and reception sensibility usually associated with white, gay male culture. Arguing that non- binary gender is a constitutive element of both camp and situation comedy formulas, Miller disputes the assumptions of both television history and camp studies with meticulous research spanning institutional procedures, social- historical context, and textual features. The subject of camp remains marginal in television studies, as W. D. Phillips and Isabel Pinedo recently observed, despite holding a pivotal position in television history.1 Genealogies of cult TV, furthermore, have rendered camp either invisible or hovering in the fringes.2 Miller confirms the centrality of camp to television aesthetics at the same time as they challenge the typical historical narrative of camp TV, which begins in the 1960s with the iconic network series Batman (ABC, 1966– 1968) and the burgeoning mainstream currency of “camp” sensibility generated by 1 W. D. Phillips and Isabel Pinedo, “Gilligan and Captain Kirk Have More in Common Than You Think: 1960s Camp TV as an Alternative Genealogy for Cult TV,” Journal of Popular Television 6, no. 1 (2018): 23– 27, https://doi.org/10.1386/jptv.6.1.19_1. 2 Phillips and Pinedo, “Gilligan and Captain Kirk,” 21– 23; Philippe Le Guern, “Toward a Constructivist Approach to Media Cults,” in Cult Television, ed.

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Communications COMPETITION AND PROGRAM TYPE DIVERSITY IN THE OVER-THE-AIR TELEVISION INDUSTRY, 1943-2005 A Thesis in Mass Communications by Young Shin Cho © 2007 Young Shin Cho Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2007 The thesis of Young-Shin Cho was reviewed and approved* by the following: Richard Taylor Palmer Chair of Telecommunications Studies and Law Thesis Advisor Chair of Committee Matt Jackson Associate Professor of Communications Krishna Jayakar Associate Professor of Communications Lynette Kvasny Assistant Professor of Information Sciences and Technology John S. Nichols Professor of Communications Associate Dean for Graduates Studies and Research *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ABSTRACT Competition and diversity are touchstones in media policy, but the relationship between them is not clear despite a great number of studies because even studies dealing with their relationship, did not measure the intensity of competition. This paper investigates the relationship between market competition and program type diversity in the over-the-air television industry. Specifically, market competition is divided into intra-network competition and intra-media competition, i.e. terrestrial television vs. cable TV. Also this paper uses a comprehensive model of program types, with 281 program type categories, which have never been used in previous studies. The results show that program type diversity keeps decreasing over time and intra-network competition has a negative effect on program type diversity. Also, intra- network competition is a more important factor on program type diversity than inter- media competition.

  • The Paul Lynde Halloween Special” Debuting on October 2
    S’MORE ENTERTAINMENT PRESENTS A CLASSIC TELEVISION COLLECTIBLE WITH “THE PAUL LYNDE HALLOWEEN SPECIAL” DEBUTING ON OCTOBER 2 Wherever Paul Lynde appeared, the audience knew they would witness comedic brilliance and rapid-fire wit. The actor/comedian, perhaps best known for his classic residency as the center square of the famous game show, “Hollywood Squares,” was an accomplished Broadway actor, as well as a regular on some of the most revered television programs of the late ‘60s. But it is “THE PAUL LYNDE HALLOWEEN SPECIAL” that best captures the brilliant comedian in a holiday special that featured a literal “who’s who” of the entertainment business including the first prime time television appearances of rock icon KISS and film star Margaret Hamilton, the original wicked witch from The Wizard Of Oz, appearing in full witch regalia. This unique special aired only once, on October 29, 1976. “THE PAUL LYNDE HALLOWEEN SPECIAL” is a television “classic” in the truest sense of the word, making this single disc DVD uniquely collectible. The priceless humor is supplied by such talented guests as Tim Conway, Billy Barty, Margaret Hamilton (The Wicked Witch of the West), Billy Hayes (Witchie Poo from “H.R. Pufnstuf”) and Florence Henderson with cameo appearances by Betty White, Donnie & Maria Osmond and Roz Kelly (Pinky Tuscadero from “Happy Days”). The show has always been the ‘holy grail for KISS fans as the super group performs 3 songs: “Beth”, “King of the Nighttime World” and “Detroit Rock City” A native of Mt. Vernon, Ohio, Paul Lynde aspired to success as an actor from an early age, despite the objections of his conservative father, a local police officer and the sheriff of the Mount Vernon jail.

She has become well-known from her appearances in such films as Lisa and the Devil, A Shot in the Dark, The Oscar, The Prize, and The Victors. Over the years, she has added singing and painting to her artistic arsenal. Having won a Golden Globe Award for her role in The Prize with Paul Newman and Edward G. Robinson, she began a long and interesting career full of stories and good memories. Her recently developed website, Elke Sommer Online, offers a glimpse into her personal and professional life. I recently had the great pleasure of speaking to Elke about her start in films, her favorite costars and their real-life personalities, (some of which may surprise you!), her artwork, and even the haunted house she owned in the 1960s! MP: I’m on the phone with Elke Sommer, an actress whose career spans many decades and who has made so many memorable films with a variety of talented actors. She has acted her way through horror, comedy, and intrigue, and continues to act today in addition to singing and painting. Elke, thank you so much for your time today; it’s an honor to be speaking with you. Elke: Well thank you very much! MP: I know you started out overseas and I wanted to mention one of your early films – 1962’s Sweet Ecstasy. You were already familiar with the director, Max Pécas, because he’d directed you the year before in Daniella by Night.
