SynopsisWhen people discuss TV among themselves, the question which quite frequently arises is, "How did this (insert your own adjective) show get on the air?" You'll probably discover the answer inside this book. In the pages of this book are stories gathered from people who have lived their lives in either selling, producing or buying the programs which we all watch and which we love or hate or merely tolerate. It's a fascinating backstage look at what goes on long before the shows are broadcast, told by men, some of whose experiences commenced when TV was an infant industry. Some are still actively involved today. You'll also encounter the names of lots of celebrities, referenced as professional colleagues, not necessarily as icons to be admired with awe. Book jacket.
