PLAYHOUSE 90
The most ambitious and acclaimed of all the anthology series, Playhouse 90 was in a league of its own. "Requiem of a Heavyweight," written by Rod Serling, garnered numerous Emmys and remains one of the best live dramas. Each week the series presented a 90 minute live drama (later went to tape in 1957). John Frankenheimer, Arthur Hiller, John Brahm, Arthur Penn were a few of the directors. Every angle and every shot left an impact on the viewing public. It was a treasure of a show, that rare gem that lives on
Playhouse 90 received many Emmy Award nominations, and it later ranked #33 on TV Guide's 50 Greatest TV Shows of All Time. Here now are 15 of those surviving shows. The quality of most of the shows is an 8 - however, because of the nature of this set the quality of some shows are 7.5 (keep in mind that some were done live and the only recording available back then was old kinescopes) but we felt it was still worthwhile offering those of lesser quality for the benefit of the serious collector. A couple of shows are missing opening credits but again -this is just a couple of shows but the stories are otherwise complete. Note: all photos used in this ad came directly from the DVD set.
as an added bonus most of these shows include the original network commercials for cigarettes, automobiles, appliances and other product of the day.
