	Naked City
		Naked City, which had two incarnations between 1958 and 1963, was one of American television's most innovative police shows, and one of its most important and influential drama series.
		Naked City was, in essence, a compassionate--not a savage--eye.
		Naked City was one of ABC's most prestigious shows during the early sixties, nominated for "Outstanding Achievement in Drama" Emmy every season it was on the air, and winning several Emmies for editing and cinematography.

	Naked City [TV Series] (1958) - Overview - MSN Movies
		Synopsis: "There are eight million stories in The Naked City...This has been one of them." These words were intoned by producer Mark Hellinger at the conclusion of The Naked City, a 1947 detective film lensed in its entirety in New York City (quite an innovation in those Hollywood-dominated years).
		The same words were heard as the coda in each episode of the TV series Naked City, which like its movie predecessor was entirely shot in the Big Apple.
		Technically, there were two TV series bearing the title Naked...

	Tv Series Route 66 - Play Free Poker Game Online
		Route 66 was one of the most unique American television dramas of the 1960s, an ostensible adventure series that functioned, in practice, as an anthology of downbeat character studies and psychological dramas.
		Like Naked City, which producer Leonard had conceived as an anthology with a cop-show pretext, the picaresque premise of Route 66 provided the basis for a variety of weekly encounters from which the stories arose.
		Route 66 was consistent in tone to the rest of TV's serious, social-realist dramas of the period, but unencumbered by any predetermined dramatic arena or generic template--as against the likes of The Defenders (courtroom drama), Dr.

	John Zorn's Naked City (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
		The series includes an album of ambient music (Absinthe), the soundtrack for an SM film (Heretic), an album that consists of a single 30-minute track (Leng Tch'e), a live album (Knitting Factory 1989), and four albums of hardcore/jazz/rock fusion (Radio, Naked City, Grand Guignol, Torture Garden).
		Naked City marks out the group's territory: jump-cutting micro-collages of hardcore, Country, sleazy jazz, covers of John Barry and Ornette Coleman, brief abstract tussles — a whole city crammed into two or three minute bursts.
		The Naked City project (which, compared to the completely improvised ones, is based on composition) was to see how many kinds of music can be made with the same ensemble, to write very different things for the same group.

		TV shows on TV are great too if you don't want to invest more than an hour at a time.
		The only TV series I've ever rented (or watched for that matter) is "Queer as Folk." That series has some cultural value for people like me, who are ignorant, straight grandfathers who don't know anything about gay people.
		Some series can be watched in one go, although the closest to a marathon was watching the last 8 episodes of Season 2 of 24 in one lonnnng night because it was so suspenseful.

		Its producer, Hellinger, patterned the tale after the tabloid newspaper stories he wrote in his youth, and he narrates the picture with the same kind of terse but poignant vitality that was the hallmark of his sensational prose.
		Shot completely on location in New York City, THE NAKED CITY chronicles the grim urban landscape and depicts its everyday life and citizens, embracing swank Fifth Avenue, Broadway, kids playing hop-skip-and-jump in the streets, straphangers en route to work and back on the crowded subways.
		In the late 1950s and early 60s, a long-running ABC TV series used this film's title to show the "slice-of-life" style of drama the original film typified, and also employed Hellinger's postscript in this, his last feature production, a line which became a household phrase: "There are eight million stories in the naked city.

	nakedcity
		The narrator (Mark Hellinger) mentions that "There are eight million stories in the Naked City; this has been one of them." The city is the unabashed star of Jules Dassin's ("Brute Force"/"Thieves Highway") crime thriller, which he shot in a semi-documentary style in a way that borders on film noir conventions.
		Based on an unpublished story by Malvin Wald, "Naked City," the film was so much praised that it has been often imitated and perhaps overrated in the growing status it gained over the years.
		The film was the inspiration for the TV series, "Naked City." The accent here is on the ordinariness of the usual police business, as it plays as just another crime episode in a typical homicide detective's day.

		Naked City was filmed on the streets of New York and this episode proves it in a strange way.
		Even with the restrictions of the culture in general and the networks themselves, TV could produce true quality that both entertained and left the viewer with food for thought.
		Not only was this a groundbreaking series for such hits as "Hill Street Blues", but it had a profound effect on me as an adolescent, with its humanistic view of cops and criminals alike, its bittersweet and emotional musical theme, all the NYC locations, and especially the great scriptwriting.

		In its earlier half-hour series starring James Franciscus "Naked City" was a pretty conventional cop show, but when it was expanded to an hour's length and recast with Paul Burke it became more like an anthology series, with its famous "eight million stories" taking in the ordinary people and eccentric characters of New York City.
		The real star, of course, in this tough and totally realistic series filmed on location is a fl and white New York City with finned cars, stores, snowy streets and a smoggy skyline vastly different from today's.
		Like "The Twilight Zone" without the fantasy element, "Naked City" is a superby crafted television series from the golden age.
