  Studio One
Studio One was one of the most significant U.S. anthology drama series during the 1950s.
Studio One provides an emblematic continuity for the 1950s drama: it was the longest running drama anthology series, lasting ten years from 1948-58, from the "big freeze" through the "golden age" to the made-in-Hollywood 90-minute film format: in all over 500 plays were produced.
Still, unlike film, live studio time was real time, and the ineluctable rule of live drama was that the length of a performance was as long as it took to see it.

 Anthology Drama
Anthology drama was an early American television series format or genre in which each episode was a discrete story/play rather than a weekly return to the same setting, characters, and stars.
In the history of American television the anthology dramas that were broadcast live from New York are often considered the epitome of the genre and of television's "golden age" of the 1950s.
Television writers and original television dramas soon appeared, however, and writers as well as critics and audiences recognized the potential power of small-scale, intimate drama created for the new medium.

 Studio One St. James Encyclopedia of Pop Culture - Find Articles   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Although it had its genesis as a radio program, Studio One became the longest running anthology drama series of the "Golden Age of Television," with more than 500 live teleplays on CBS from 1948 through 1958, and earned a reputation as a visual innovator in broadcast storytelling.
A product of television's infancy, the series disseminated drama of a high order, bringing classical works and serious "one-off" plays to a wide popular audience, and sowing the seeds for a generation of Hollywood writers and directors to learn their craft on the small screen.
In addition, the film studios argued that kinescopes (a film of the image from the picture tube), which were broadcast later in markets other than New York, violated their rights to certain properties.

The Studio II is often the butt of jokes due to the primitive nature of the hardware.
The Studio II had a plain fl and white output, no shades of gray, like you saw when you put your Atari 2600 on B/W. This leads me to believe the games were just B/W, but some hardware enhancement applies colors to the games.
The Studio II is not emulated at present, and this is not surprising.

The WB Network is widely recognized as the first television network to capitalize on the trend toward increasingly fragmented television audiences.
The network was established as a direct result of changes in the television regulatory environment that year that allowed television networks to produce and syndicate more of their own programming.
Independent studios like Paramount and Warner Brothers (which, at the time, was the largest supplier of television series in Hollywood) were concerned that more products from the studios of NBC, CBS, ABC, and Fox would shut out the independent studios or leave them vulnerable to unfavorable deals.

The actor who is first exposed to the film and television process after a long stint in theatre often discovers that it is a technical medium controlled largely by technical considerations and by directors with a filmmaking background and not an actor's background.
