SUMMARY:Aaron Sorkin On TV (AM)
DESCRIPTION:Aaron Sorkin created four fascinating television shows. When we think about Aaron Sorkin on TV\, our minds jump to “The West Wing.” It is rightfully considered one of the most outstanding television programs ever to air. \nIn this fun\, fast\, and fascinating presentation\, we will look at the other three great Aaron Sorkin TV shows. \nChronologically\, the first was Sports Night\, a fictionalized look behind the scenes at the most popular show on an all-sports network. This fantastic show\, loosely based on Keith Olbermann on “Sports Center” on ESPN\, was a critical smash but never found a large audience. You will wonder why after seeing clips of this beautiful show! \nSecond up will be “Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip.” Probably the least popular of the Aaron Sorkin on TV offerings\, this show attempt to look behind the curtain of a fictionalized version of “Saturday Night Live.” \nFinally\, we will examine “The Newsroom.” This\, in all likelihood\, will be Sorkin’s last television series. \nOnce again\, Aaron Sorkin dramatized the behind-the-scenes events at a television network. This time\, his target is a fictionalized CNN. Sorkin tried to write scripts that reflected real-life events happening in real-time! \nEach of these shows was brilliant\, yet frustrating\, but always fascinating! \nCOST \nI ask for a voluntary donation of $5.00. If you cannot afford it or feel my programs are not worth $5.00\, you are invited to come for free; I am struggling but supporting a family\, so I understand with compassion living on a tight budget! \nCash/Check Payable to Barry Bradford \nBarry Bradford \nP.O.

SUMMARY:The Mary Tyler Moore Show
DESCRIPTION:Not only did Mary Tyler Moore “turn the world on with her smile\,” as her iconic show’s theme song declared\, she also influenced a generation of women to become more independent and to pursue successful and fulfilling careers. Moore’s own 50-plus-year career has spanned award-winning films and Broadway shows\, as well as two beloved television series that broke ground and continue to entertain viewers. \nThis fascinating multimedia presentation will offer fascinating insights into her difficult early life. Did you know she was born in Brooklyn?  We will follow her early career as a dancer\, unseen television star (as sultry Sam on “Richard Diamond) through The Dick Van Dyke Show and the Mary Tyler Moore Show. Her unique career\, fascinating life\, and enduring legacy make for a fabulous program! \n  \n

SUMMARY:Bob Newhart
DESCRIPTION:Bob Newhart turned 93 on September 5\, 2022. He is a living legend and widely regarded as one of the nicest men in Hollywood history. \nTwo of his sitcoms became iconic and his appearances on the Tonight Show were legendary. His standup routine influenced a generation of comics. In fact\, his “Abraham Lincoln Talks To A Public Relations Man” bit was so influential that it became a major plot point on the hit TV show “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.” And in the early 1960s\, his comedy albums set sales records the redefine the medium \nSo how did a soft-spoken\, mild-mannered\, somewhat nerdy accountant from Chicago become one of the most beloved stars in American history? You won’t want to miss this fascinating and insightful multimedia appreciation of the great Bob Newhart! \nTHIS PROGRAM IS FREE! YOU CAN ATTEND LIVE IN PERSON AT THE DEERFIELD LIBRARY OR WATCH IT FREE ON ZOOM! \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER! \n
