Sobre IBD

In this entertaining and informative book, Victor L. Cahn revisits memorable episodes from eleven classic television shows, including The Twilight Zone, Maverick, The Dick Van Dyke Show, The Fugitive, The Avengers, and All in the Family. He provides background for each program, details about the creative individuals involved, close readings of the scripts, and reflections on why these series were influential when originally broadcast and why they continue to be enjoyed decades later by 'baby boomers,' their children, and their grandchildren. With a scholar’s insight and a fan’s enthusiasm, he offers a unique perspective on an integral part of mid-twentieth-century American culture.
