Media Relations: truth and the rawhide kid/ January 16, 2003 Not to be completely left out of mining DC Comics for story ideas, Marvel Comics, earlier this year, turned the tables on television and on its prime competitor in an interesting and peculiar way. ("Marville" is, in theory, meant to be a parody of comics culture, and is a contender for future publication beyond its initial order with two other series in Marvel's "U-Decide" contest.

AVS Forum - TV Networks and Mid Season changes While occasional tinkering was not uncommon—“Rawhide” was a midseason replacement when it premiered on CBS in 1959—no network had ever attempted such wholesale changes to its schedule in the middle of a television season.

Clint Eastwood - The Musical Recordings In the early 1960's, Clint Eastwood found himself riding high on the waves of success his television series Rawhide had brought to him.

Clint Eastwood Eastwood's career has slowly developed: television success in Rawhide; his icon-defining role as the nameless gunslinger in Sergio Leone's spaghetti Westerns; movie superstardom with the Dirty Harry series; then a softening, and even some intellectual respectability, with his Oscar for directing Unforgiven. Following Eastwood from his unstable childhood through his turbulent love affairs, assessing films from A Fistful of Dollars to the Oscar-winning The Unforgiven, and locating the subversive streak of rage and solitude that runs through all his work, Clint Eastwood is candid and endlessly fascinating, an unerring closeup of one of our brightest stars. Eastwood is probably the single strongest icon of heroic masculinity in American cinema over the past quarter-century. www.coolteenbooks.com /c/Clint_Eastwood   (1494 words)
