  • Living in Shuster's House
    --> Bob Aaron [email protected] January 19, 2002 Living in Shuster's house I'll always treasure the aura the late comic left behind as the original owner of my house You could say the recent death of Canadian comic legend Frank Shuster hit me where I live. Emotionally and literally. You see, the place I call home was built for Shuster in 1951 and he lived here for 19 years during the heyday of his world- famous television show. So, as a devout fan of Frank Shuster and his partner Johnny Wayne, starting from the time their CBC TV shows were broadcast in black and white, I feel lucky to be surrounded by the magical Shuster aura. The study where these New in Homes columns are written every week was the workroom where the two comedians created so many of the television scripts that are now entertainment classics. Back in July, 1955, a magazine called Canadian Homes and Gardens ran a photo feature entitled "Wayne and Shuster at Home." It's apparent, when comparing the photographs of the 1,800-square-foot Shuster house back then, with how it is today, that not much has changed. The furniture is different, of course, but the living room, dining room, centre hall and main staircase look today just as they did in 1955. Even our living room piano is in the same position as Shuster's was back then. Although the built-in bookshelves in the Shuster study have remained the same, the comedian and his partner might not recognize the room, which is now crammed with computers, printer, fax machine, desks, file cabinets, and a lot of books on real estate and coins (my other life interest).

  • A City "... Waiting for the Sunrise " : Toronto in Song and Sound*
    A City "... Waiting for the Sunrise " : Toronto in Song and Sound* Michael J. Doucet Abstract: One aspect of urban culture is examined to evaluate Toronto's position within the urban hierarchy, namely, the production of songs and sounds about the city. Although much music has been performed and created in Toronto over the years, and many songs have been urritten about a variety of features of life in the city, the musical images of Toronto remain largely unknown beyond its borders—even to many of the city's own residents. If Toronto is a "world-class city," the evidence for such a claim would have to be found on other dimensions than the one explored here. No one ever wrote / A single note / About Toronto. — Johnny Wayne and Frank Shuster (19%) I find that lately, I'm missing old Toronto, Where bass is strong and drums are full of fire. — from the Lenny Breau song "New York City" (1987) No nation can exist by the balance sheet alone. Stories, song, dance, music, art and the rest are the lifeblood of a country, the cultural images defining a people just as surely as their geography and the gross national product. — Robert Lewis, editor of Maclean's (19%) Interestingly, though, we don't seem to have an immediately identifiable style. The last time anyone spoke about a 'Toronto Sound' [former Mayor] Alan Lamport was booting hippies out of Yorkville. Unlike a Nashville or Manchester, there isn't any one thing that makes you say 'That's Toronto' -- Bob Mackowycz, writer and broadcaster (1991) Toronto itself doesn't have a distinctive civic culture.

  • A Street by Any Other Name Is Just As Sweet
    --> Bob Aaron [email protected] August 1, 2009 A street by any other name is just as sweet Some roads named in a person's honour are well thought out; other choices come into question Searching title to a local condominium townhouse last month, I was surprised and pleased to discover a Toronto street name that was completely new to me. Joe Shuster Way is in the King West Village area, north and east of King and Dufferin Sts. Joe Shuster (1914-1992) was a native Torontonian and is best known as the co-creator of Superman, one of the most famous and commercially successful fictional characters of the 20th century. His family lived nearby in the area of Bathurst and College Sts. before moving to Cleveland for business reasons. As a youngster, Shuster worked as a newspaper boy for the Toronto Daily Star. When Superman first appeared in 1938, his alter ego, Clark Kent, worked for the Daily Planet, modelled after this newspaper. Toronto was the inspiration for Metropolis, Superman's home city. In another tribute to the artist, the Joe Shuster Awards were named in his honour and are presented annually to honour achievements in the field of Canadian comic book publishing. Credit for naming Joe Shuster Way goes to Toronto developer Urbancorp, which transformed the old Massey Ferguson lands into a thriving neighbourhood, now home to 1,400 people. Urbancorp also gets credit for naming two streets that intersect with Joe Shuster Way. Laidlaw St. is named after George Laidlaw, promoter of the Credit Valley Railway in 1879.

  • Saturday Night Live
    return to updates Saturday Night “Jive” by “Kevin” Since its inception in 1975, “SNL” has launched the careers of many of the brightest comedy performers of their generation. As the New York Times noted on the occasion of the show’s Emmy-winning 25th anniversary special in 1999, “in defiance of both time and show business convention, ‘SNL’ is still the most pervasive influence on the art of comedy in contemporary culture” This paper is an attempt to discover the players behind this “pervasive influence”. This is an opinion piece compiled with information readily available from an array of internet sources. In the beginning, there was… (wikipedia) In 1974, NBC Tonight Show host Johnny Carson requested that the weekend broadcasts of “Best of Carson” come to an end. To fill in the gap, the network brought in Dick Ebersol – a protege of legendary ABC Sports president Roone Arledge – to develop a 90-minute late-night variety show. Ebersol’s first order of business was hiring a young Canadian producer named Lorne Michaels. There’s the starting gun. Let the search for red flags begin. (wikipedia) Duncan “Dick” Ebersol (born July 28, 1947) was born in Torrington, Connecticut. The son of Mary (nee) Duncan and Charles Roberts Ebersol, a former chairman of the American Cancer Society. He and Josiah Bunting III are half-brothers. In 1975, Ebersol and Lorne Michaels conceived of and developed Saturday Night Live. Named as Vice President of Late Night Programming at age 28... NBC’s first-ever vice president under the age of 30. Editor: In 1983, Ebersol formed No Sleep Productions, an independent production company that created Emmy Award-winning NBC shows Friday Night Videos and Later with Bob Costas.

BERKOWITZ COMMUNICATION AND CULTURE RYERSON UNIVERSITY AND YORK UNIVERSITY As online TV delivery disrupts conventional TV broadcasting and unbundles TV cable channels, allowing consumers to choose programs and TV brands more directly, hit content is “king” more than ever before. This dissertation offers a new analysis of Canadian English-language TV drama content’s failure to mature into a popular genre or robust economic sector since its introduction in the 1960s, and suggests ways that the Canadian English-language TV drama value chain might be strategically adjusted in response to global market disruption, by strengthening the development phase.
