Overview

Playhouse 90 is an American television anthology series that was telecast on CBS from 1956 to 1960 for a total of 133 episodes. It originated from CBS Television City in Los Angeles, California. Since live anthology drama series of the mid-1950s were usually hour-long shows, the title highlighted the network's intention to present something unusual, a weekly series of hour-and-a-half dramas rather than 60-minute plays. Playhouse 90 began as a pitch by Frank Stanton—the formidable, forward-thinking right-hand man to CBS chairman William S. Paley—during a brainstorming session for program ideas. The project was ultimately developed by Hubbell Robinson, a CBS vice president who received no screen credit on Playhouse 90 but is often described as its creator.

Overview

Playhouse 90 ist eine amerikanische Fernseh-Anthologieserie, die von 1956 bis 1960 mit insgesamt 133 Episoden auf CBS ausgestrahlt wurde. Es entstand aus CBS Television City in Los Angeles, Kalifornien. Da es sich bei Live-Anthologie-Dramaserien Mitte der 1950er-Jahre in der Regel um einstündige Sendungen handelte, unterstrich der Titel die Absicht des Senders, etwas Ungewöhnliches zu präsentieren: eine wöchentliche Serie eineinhalbstündiger Dramen statt 60-minütiger Stücke. Playhouse 90 begann als Pitch von Frank Stanton – dem beeindruckenden, zukunftsorientierten rechten Mann des CBS-Vorsitzenden William S. Paley – während einer Brainstorming-Sitzung für Programmideen. Das Projekt wurde letztendlich von Hubbell Robinson entwickelt, einem CBS-Vizepräsidenten, der für Playhouse 90 keine Nennung erhielt, aber oft als dessen Schöpfer bezeichnet wird.
