Hundreds of channels, and nothing to watch. Once every ten years or so, NBC returns to its golden age with a live broadcast of a major production, such as “Fail Safe,” and just recently, “Sound of Music.” Other than that, programing looks like something run by 15-year old boys.
I haven’t watched NBC, or any of the other abc channels, but I did record and watch The Sound of Music. It was not bad, but the original with Julie Andrews was of course better
Fail Safe is a 2000 televised broadcast play, based on Fail-Safe, the Cold War novel by Eugene Burdick and Harvey Wheeler. The play, broadcast live in black and white on CBS, starred George Clooney, Richard Dreyfuss, Harvey Keitel, and Noah Wyle, and was one of the few live dramas on American television since its so-called Golden Age in the 1950s and 1960s. The broadcast was introduced by Walter Cronkite (his introduction, also broadcast in black and white, is included in the DVD releases of the film). - Wikipedia
