This show is notable[edit]

I created this article since I consider to show to be important, as it features a major actress, and is still shown on TV more than 50 years after it's first broadcast. If anyone wants to cleanup the article but needs info on the show, Just leave a message on my talk page. Retro Agnostic (talk) 12:05, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Emmy Nomination[edit]

It appears that she was only nominated for an Emmy for "Life with Elizabeth". (Not that it detracts from her accomplishment!)

An editor placed a link, which they explain "may" suggest she earned an Emmy, but looking at it, it's an obscure reference that doesn't seem to imply that: may have earned an Emmy Award

Looking at IMDB (non-pro) and other sources, for example this: http://www.verbicidemagazine.com/2010/08/23/betty-whites-emmy-nominations-then-and-now/# , appears fairly conclusive and it seems unlikely an Emmy win would be entirely overlooked by Emmy sites that are typically comprehensive.

Which shows and from when?[edit]

Just caught a couple of episodes of this on COSI-TV (I was too busy having my diapers changed to watch any when they first aired), and they looked more like kinescopes of live broadcasts rather than shows originally shot on film. The laughter was obviously (and refreshingly) from a smallish live studio audience rather than canned. I saw some side-parted women's hairstyles more characteristic of the very early rather than the mid-1950s. So are these really from the 1953-1955 syndicated run which is the focus of the article, or kinescopes of the "live production on KLAC-TV in 1951" shows mentioned in passing? Or are they both, i.e., kinescopes of those live KLAC-TV broadcasts which were later syndicated or, perhaps, shows simultaneously broadcast and filmed by some sort of protean Electronicam system? I didn't notice any obvious instances of the dark haloing around very bright areas typical of 1950s TV camera pickup tubes, which would remove any doubt that they were ordinary kinescope films. 66.81.242.24 (talk) 01:13, 12 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
