	For the Record
		Although the producers and writers contributed a great deal to the success of the series, one of the key decisions taken by Thomas was to hire directors who had contributed to the growth of Canadian cinema in the 1960s and early 1970s.
		Dramatized treatments of specific topical events (like "The Tar Sands") were rare, although viewers could often relate the fictional stories to similar stories recently in the news.
		The series was praised for its refusal to allow personal dramas to obscure the social implications of the issues.

	Disney anthology television series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The series moved to NBC in 1961 to take advantage of that network's ability to broadcast in color.
		The series was revived again on ABC in 1997 after Disney purchased ABC where it ran on Sundays until 2003 when it moved to Saturday night; it continued in that time slot until 2005 when it ceased as a regular series, due in part to premium pay-cable rights currently held by the Starz!
		Reruns of the 1954-1983 shows were a staple of the Disney Channel for several years, when it was an outlet for vintage Disney cartoons, TV shows and movies, basically serving the same function that the anthology series served in the days before cable.

	Science-fiction Programs
		Each series pitted its dynamic hero against a variety of intergalactic menaces, be they malevolent alien conquerors, evil mad scientists, or mysterious forces of the universe.
		The series was promoted in syndication as the most expensive program of its kind ever produced, but despite such publicity, the series went out of production after only 48 episodes.
		The series was less concerned with the "science" of time travel, however, than with the moral lessons to be learned or taught by seeing the world through another person's eyes.

	Young, Loretta
		Anthology dramas were a staple of 1950s programming, presenting different stories with different characters and casts each week.
		Like Lucille Ball, she was one of the few women who had control of her own successful series, the first woman to have her own dramatic anthology series on network television, the first person to win both an Academy Award and an Emmy Award.
		She wanted--and the anthology format afforded--acting variety, a format for conveying moral messages, and a showcase for her glamorous, fashionable movie star image.

	tvdvdreviews.com -- The Andy Griffith Show: The Complete First Season DVD Review
		The show was a dramatic anthology series designed to showcase new writing, performing, and directed talent by presenting a new live production each week.
		CBS and Thomas (who was also the successful TV producer of such classic series as The Dick Van Dyke Show) were so impressed by Griffith's performance that they decided to create a series around the actor.
		A shoe salesman is mistaken for a talent scout in "Those Gossipin' Men." Hillbilly stereotypes abound in "A Feud is a Feud," a riff on the battle between the Hatfields and the McCoys.

	'BROTHERS' SUCCESS HINTS AT CABLE'S NEW ROLE - New York Times
		At a time when the networks rarely order more than 22 episodes of a series, Showtime's recent order of 50 new episodes of ''Brothers'' - the critically acclaimed situation comedy about a family adjusting to the revelation that the youngest of three brothers is homosexual - is an unusual vote of confidence.
		Cable has moved very cautiously into the area of series development, preferring in the past to concentrate on acquiring theatrical movies and producing occasional musical or dramatic specials.

		Anthology shows are high on the list as far as quality but are virtually forgotten by today's audiences.

		These Irwin Allen tv series were (truly) groundbreaking in their day broadly expanding the perimeters of just what could be done on television and did employ excellent directors, writers and guest performers to their credit.

	Write Compelling Essays
		Usually told in a first-person narrative and relating to a past or factual event, anthology essays (or creative nonfiction essays) are sometimes easier for beginners to write since the essays relate factual incidents with dramatic flair.
		Choose the memory you want to write about based on the theme of the book you are targeting (most anthology editors put out specific calls for stories on their websites), then personalize it.
		Using universal themes in writing is no secret, but basing an anthology essay on one will help make your own personal story grab the hearts of many readers and hopefully grab the attention of many anthology editors.
