James Lynch,

Cinema and Media Studies

While it is naturally interesting to read about how a top‐rated television program is put together, the following article is but the latest step in the author's long‐time interest in the television production process. He has previously published “The Case History of a Live Television Drama” (dealing with the “U.S. Steel Hour” in 1956), and “The Case History of a Televised Film Production” (dealing with a 1967 episode of “The Girl from Uncle” series), which, with the following new research on taped TV production, provide a unique view into the network program process over a 17 year period. James E. Lynch is chairman of the department of communication studies at the University of Massachusetts in Am‐herst. Dr. Lynch wishes to express his thanks to the Dean of the Social and Behavioral Science faculty at Massachusetts for special research funds—and to Norman Lear and Bud Yorkin for making it all possible.
