OVER THE YEARS, NO TELEVISION FORMATS have experienced more of a roller-coaster ride — in terms of their popularity with the public and their classifications at the Emmys — than made-for-TV movies and miniseries. In the mid-1950s, for the first time, a majority of American households owned a TV set, and Hollywood was forced to acknowledge that this smaller-screen nuisance wasn’t going away anytime soon. Adopting the attitude, “If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em,” film studios began to license their product to TV, and soon each of the three networks was offering a weekly [Insert day of the week here] at the Movies program. Before long, few desirable movies had not yet been shown — which led TV execs to a bright idea: Why not make our own? The…

Edie Falco Nurse Jackie (SHOWTIME) Proudest show moment I had a particularly difficult and emotional scene to do with [actress] Merritt Wever at the end of the series and my real-life emotions got the best of me. But I was proud I’d allowed that to happen. I sometimes think I’m too professional and keep my real emotional life so far from the workplace, so I was pleased my real feelings about Merritt and working with her [entered] the workday. I eventually recovered and we finished the scene. But it was rough, as Merritt is my hero. Playing this role, I learned That I do care about others’ perceptions of me, at least to some extent. Because [Jackie] clearly didn’t! I couldn’t get into character without Jackie’s stethoscope. Favorite way to…

MASSACHUSETTS Olive Kitteridge HBO “We used the Cape Ann area to represent Crosby, Maine,” says executive producer Gary Goetzman. “It had a coastline that was close to the one in Maine. And in Gloucester, we found the ideal little town. We also found a house on a little peninsula that was a beautiful, haunting, lovely, lonely spot — all the things you would want to feel from the location. But finding the Kitteridge house was a challenge: [Director] Lisa Cholodenko wanted to find the exterior and interior in one place — not build on a stage if possible. When we found a house, we did renovations inside to suit the Kitteridges’ needs: We painted and of course did the entire dressing of the house; we took all of the owners’…

DICK VAN PATTEN • 86 EIGHT IS ENOUGH “HE WAS THE MOST POSITIVE, KINDEST MAN,” SAID ACTOR Willie Aames, who played Tommy Bradford, one of Van Patten’s sons on the ABC drama. “I never saw him get angry except when I had a stalker who claimed to know Dick’s son. The guy called the Eight Is Enough set once and claimed he was a friend of Vinnie’s. I said, ‘Hey, Dick, it’s that guy.’ And he got on the phone and tore him to shreds. It was the only time in four years I saw him get angry. There was never an unkind word about anybody. He was the most sincere person I’d every worked with.” Anne Meara • 85 STILLER & MEARA SHE WAS THE UBER-CATHOLIC wife, he the…

IN 1964, THE HOLLYWOOD Reporter wasn’t quite sure what to make of The Man From U.N.C.L.E. The reviewer seemed confused as to whether the NBC drama offered straightforward action or a tongue-in-cheek spoof of spy movies. At the time, THR compared U.N.C.L.E. (the initials stood for United Network Command for Law and Enforcement) to old-time Saturday matinee serials where villains are defeated in the nick of time, in U.N.C.L.E.’s case by agents from a too-cool-for-school “super-secret organization dedicated to combat all anti-American forces regardless where and how they crop up.” In a casting move that went against Cold War expectations, American agent Napoleon Solo (played by Robert Vaughn) was paired up with Soviet sidekick Illya Kuryakin (David McCallum) to fight evil around the world. Though the premise was clearly farcical,…
