Rating: 2
Summary: NBC Lite
Comment: If you're looking for a big, happy coffee table book about what a terrific network NBC is, "Brought to You in Living Color" will meet your needs. If, however, you're expecting actual information (ratings? dates? a comprehensive list of shows? interviews?), as I was, this content-starved book will only make you shake your fist and curse the all-powerful National Broadcasting Network. It's as if the NBC publicity department is offering you a big bowl of jellybeans ... colorful and tempting, to be sure, but ultimately unsatisfying.

Rating: 5
Summary: Elegant book
Comment: Leafing through this gorgeous volume brought back so many memories, I had to buy it. Chico and the Man, Jane Pauley on The Today Show, The Gong Show, Willard Scott with his toupee, Johnny Carson, John Belushi, the Olympics (with Ali bravely holding the torch). Your don't realize how much influence NBC has had in our lives -- making us better at our jobs, making us laugh, exposing us to new places and idea. There's great stuff on new shows as well -- West Wing, Law & Order,etc. Definitely worthwhile for the nostalgia and pictures -- it's quite beautiful book.

Summary: A New History of American Culture
Comment: Brought to You in Living Color: 75 Years of Great Moments in Television and Radio from NBC

BROUGHT TO YOU IN LIVING COLOR is a wealth of knowledge on and about the history of NBC, which is also at once a history of network programming on television and modern entertainment itself. More importantly, Brought to You in Living Color, is everybody's book as it reads like a biography, a tightly researched work of non-fiction, and a memoir as it relays many facts and anectdotes (both funny and touching) about many of the milestones in television.

The book spans from the early days of radio to the current shows on NBC. While telling the story of the network, the book narrates what will likely be the most relevant social history of 20th century America. I strongly recommend this for your personal library,coffee table, or as a gift.
