Inside Television's Greatest - Cheers
Editorial Review:
Description
The stars, the writers, the producers and those who almost made it big... Inside Television's Greatest reveals the answers to all the questions you've been dying to ask, and tells the secrets you wouldn't imagine to be true. Explore the creative process that brings an idea, and the characters of a new world, to life. Crawl inside the actors' heads and experience life in television from both sides of the camera. Understand the complex decisions and strange chain of events that bring the relative nameless to unequaled fame...and how one word can force them into obscurity. With Inside Television's Greatest, you'll never get closer to the shows that have brought so much joy, sadness and laughter into our lives. During a time when the sitcom was being written off as a "dinosaur", and network revenue was being lost to cable TV, the idea for Cheers was born. Singlehandedly, Cheers revived this dying art form. With writing that never faltered from the first episode to the last, they created the most highly anticipated final episode in TV history. It was the cast of highly developed characters and our ability to connect with them, to see them as our friends, that kept us coming back week after week.The lovable losers of Cheers gave us a way to escape the world we live in, and go to a place "Where Everybody Knows your Name". Find the answers to these fascinating questions, and many more in Inside Television's Greatest: • What character was played by someone recognized as a director, not as an actor? • Whose father was a convicted killer? • Which character was not originally written into the scripts, but was suggested by someone?
