mom, i wanted my eggs scrambled. coming right up. mandabach: they talked about parenting. previous to that, on television the kids were cool and the parents were idiots. and then cosby says the parents are in charge and that was something new. instead of acting disappointed because i'm not like you, maybe you can just accept who i am and love me anyway because i'm your son. that's the dumbest thing i've ever heard in my life! shales: you know, it helps, the casting of anything helps a lot in television. and the kids were just great. if you were the last person on this earth, i still wouldn't tell you. you don't have to tell me what you did. just tell me what they're gonna do to you. graham: unlike every other show on tv, it's showing an upper-middle-class black family. this wasn't "all in the family." they weren't tackling, you know, deep issues. but that was okay. the mere fact that they existed was a deep issue. mandabach: the decade was waiting for something real.

on every part of the tv culture that came next. -freeze! -freeze! miami vice. pauley: friday nights on nbc are different this season, thanks to "miami vice." it's a show with an old theme, but a lot of new twists. described by one critic as containing flashes of brilliance, nonetheless. shot entirely on location in south miami, the story centers around two undercover vice cops. i don't know how this is gonna work tubbs. i mean, you're not exactly up my alley style- and persona- wise. heaven knows i'm no box of candy. michael mann: television very much was the small screen. what was interesting about tony yerkovich's pilot screenplay for "miami vice" is that it was exactly not that. very much the approach was, okay they call this a television series, but we're gonna make one-hour movies every single week. okay, here we go. standby. action! police! police! pauley: you were just describing the show

burrows: we had the luck to be able to rotate cast and every time we put somebody in, there were explosions. bwah! levine: there was something very special about that setting, those characters, that i never got tired of writing that show. sophisticated surveys, telephonic samplings, test audiences, all of those things help to separate winners from losers and make mid-course corrections. but you can't cut all comedies from the same cookie cutters. all you can hope is that every night turns out like thursday. yo, angela! larry, larry. next... how rude. [ cat yowling ] he's quick, i'll give him that. bianculli: all of television said, "oh, well, maybe the sitcoms are alive again." and that's all that it took. it took one success. greenfield: a few years from now, something new may tempt the people who pick what we see.

but johnny is kind of holding out. he was not necessarily of his time in the '80s. but he did sustain a certain timelessness. he's the king. on your chair.

"dallas" is a television show which in some ways is rooted in the 1970's and one of the crazy things that emerges is this character, j.r. ewing as a pop phenomenon. tell me, j.r., which slut are you gonna stay with tonight? what difference does it make? whoever it is it's got to be more interesting than the slut i'm looking at right now. levine: he was such a delicious villain. everyone was completely enamored by this character. bianculli: at this point so many people were watching television that you could do something so unexpected that it would become news overnight. who's there? [ gunshot ] [ groans ] [ gunshot ] [ gasping ] the national obsession in 1980 around who shot j.r. it's hard to imagine how obsessed we all were with that question, but we were. who shot j.r. is about as ideal a cliffhanger

and all of them want their money's worth. people began to find out that news could be a profit center. and that focused a lot of attention on us. a lot from people in wall street, for instance. if you think about the news divisions of cbs, nbc and abc, they were part of a really proud tradition, a journalistic tradition that really matters. we serve the public. this is not about profit and loss. and the people who worked at those news divisions were totally freaked out by what it meant that they were now owned by these larger corporate entities. if the television news isn't profitable at some point, there won't be any more television news on the networks. shales: i worry about people who are interested only in money and power getting ahold of television. it has higher purposes than that. we have seen the news and it is us.

i think that he is starting to transcend just his sport. he's becoming something of a public figure. futterman: michael jordan becomes the model that every other athlete wants to shoot for. they want to be a brand. and that's what television does for these athletes. it turns them into worldwide, iconic brands. announcer: the inbound pass comes in to jordan. here's michael at the foul line. a shot on ehlo. -good! -yeah! the bulls win! athletes in the '80s became part of an ongoing group of people that we cared about. we just had an enormous, pent-up demand for sports and the '80s began to provide. thank goodness. cable television is continuing to grow. it's estimated that it will go into one million more u.s. households this year. with cable television suddenly offering an array of different channel choices, the audience bifurcated. that's an earthquake. i want my mtv! i want my mtv!■■■■i want my mtv! i want my mtv. i want my mtv. ♪ goodman: a new concept is born -- the best of tv combined with the best of radio.

dispatch. we have a 9-11. armed robbery in progress. mcqueen: when quality does emerge on television, the phrase "too good for tv" is often heard. one recent network offering that seems to deserve that phrase is "hill street blues." "hill street" is one of the changing points of the entire industry in the history of tv. bochco: we had all watched a documentary about cops and it had this real hand-held, in the moment quality that we were very enamored of. [ screaming ] [ screaming ] come in! come in! [ telephone ringing ] graham: the minute you looked at it, it looked different. it had a mood to it. you could almost, you could almost smell the stale coffee. bochco: we didn't want to do a standard cop show where, you know, you got a crime and you got your two cops and you go out and you catch the bad guy and you sweat him and he confesses and that's it.
