  • The $64,000 Question (1955 – 1968) Host: Hal March
    COM308 Week 4 Notes—Quiz Show Scandal Purpose Today we are going to consider the formative years of TV and the quiz show scandal's impact on the TV business and a naive America. Background When CBS premiered "The $64,000 Question" in 1955, the show was more than a hit; it was a national phenomenon. No program in the short history of television had ever attracted so many viewers so quickly -- 47 million in ten weeks. Audiences loved the idea of watching people like themselves compete for huge sums of money by answering tough questions. "The common man as genius," one writer called it. More quiz shows followed, including "Twenty One" and "Tic Tac Dough." At the times these shows aired, the crime rate and movie theatre attendance actually dropped. What the viewing audience was to learn, but only much later, was that many of the TV quiz shows were fixed. Initially, popular contestants were favored with easier questions; they were "rehearsed" by the show's producers for hours before airtime. When producer Dan Enright saw ratings plummet for his show "Twenty One," he went even further, providing contestants with answers before air time. To make the charade convincing, Enright coached his hand-picked winners down to the smallest detail: when to stutter, mop their brow, bite their lip, even how to dress. The most famous of these contestants was Charles Van Doren. Young, intelligent, and handsome, Van Doren was "a bona fide egghead with enough sex appeal" to create a sensation. Slowly and painfully, the deceit unraveled. When a Congressional investigation revealed that wholesome Van Doren and the quiz shows were a fraud, Americans felt angry and betrayed.

INTRODUCTION The early 2000s was an exciting time for primetime entertainment. A new breed of television program was sweeping the nation’s airwaves that would forever change the American zeitgeist—reality television.1 Survivor (2000) is widely credited as the series that popularized and defined the modern concept of reality television.2 Commentators almost universally regard Mark Burnett’s pioneering program as the first commercially successful reality game show, and the numbers back up their assertion. During the summer of 2000, an average of 28.3 million viewers tuned into CBS Wednesday nights to see which “survivor” would be the next to be “voted off” the island.3 The show’s finale attracted an unprecedented 51.1 million viewers,4 greatly surpassing anyone’s wildest expectations, beating out the World Series, NBA finals, NCAA men’s basketball finals, and the Grammy Awards of that year.5 To put Survivor’s first season viewership in perspective, Game of Thrones, the most watched show during the summer of 2017, only attracted an average of 13.1 million viewers (less than * J.D.

  • Mythologizing Charles Van Doren: the 1950S, the Media, and the Making of Cultural Memory
    MYTHOLOGIZING CHARLES VAN DOREN: THE 1950S, THE MEDIA, AND THE MAKING OF CULTURAL MEMORY by Heather Elise Fisher B.A., The University of Arizona, 1993 M.A., University of Pittsburgh, 2003 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2011 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Heather Elise Fisher It was defended on June 9, 2011 and approved by Brenton Malin, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Department of Communication Carol A. Stabile, Ph.D., Professor, Department of English Jonathan Sterne, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Department of Art History and Communication Studies Ronald J. Zboray, Ph.D., Professor, Department of Communication Dissertation Advisor: Jane Feuer, Ph.D., Professor, Department of English and Department of Communication ii Copyright © by Heather Elise Fisher 2011 iii MYTHOLOGIZING CHARLES VAN DOREN: THE 1950S, THE MEDIA, AND THE MAKING OF CULTURAL MEMORY Heather Elise Fisher, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2011 The myth of Charles Van Doren, as recorded in mass media retellings of the 1959 television quiz show scandal, is a story of a good-intentioned, intelligent young man who was tempted by the muses of fame and fortune to make a deal with some television devils, then was involved in the cover-up of their deceptions, only to finally tell the truth and yet still pay dearly for his transgressions. The Charles Van Doren story this dissertation tells, however, is more about the loaded phrase “the 1950s,” which implies simultaneously contradictory narratives of progress and stagnation, assimilation and isolation, hope and fear; more about “the Media,” our “window on the world,” our reflection, our bearer of good dreams; and more about the business and government institutions that boosted their own public images while reaping in financial rewards—at the expense of Charles Van Doren, hundreds of other quiz show contestants, and the American public at large.

    Don’t Touch That Dial How Much Has TV Changed in 60 Years - Or Not BY Kathy A. Sauer Presented to the American Culture Faculty At the University of Michigan-Flint In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Liberal Studies In American Culture November 19, 2007 First Reader (Robert Houbeck, PhD) _ Second Reader (Michael Kassel, PhD) Table of Contents Introduction 3 History 5 Soap Operas 17 Game Shows 35 News 46 Children’s Programming 59 Melodrama 67 Situation Comedy 75 Conclusion 84 Bibliography 89 2 INTRODUCTION Television: A device that creates a picture with sound. The word literally means to watch from a distance and we certainly can and do. We watched in awe as a man walked on the moon and we unwillingly witnessed the murder of an assassin while still reeling from the shock of losing a president. W e wept over our TV trays as body bags of American soldiers were loaded onto carrier planes in some godforsaken jungle called Vietnam. We were transfixed as Mother Nature unfolded her wrath in the form of earthquakes, volcanoes and tsunamis on the other side of the globe. Just when we think we’ve seen it all, through the magic of videotape, an event from fifty years ago can be enjoyed with better clarity than the original offered. By tuning in to satellites, live action from anywhere on this earth or beyond is at our fingertips for our viewing pleasure. All this and we don’t have to leave the couch to be connected. It’s all there in the talking box with moving pictures.
