Fireside Theater
''Fireside Theater'', aka Jane Wyman Presents, is an American anthology drama series that ran on NBC from 1949 to 1958, and was the first successful filmed series on American television. Stories were low budget and often based on public domain stories or written by freelance writers such as Rod Serling. While it was panned by critics, it remained in the top ten most popular shows for most of its run. It predated the other major pioneer of filmed TV in America, ''I Love Lucy'', by two years.
==Overview==
From 1952 to 1958, the program was presented by a host. This role was first filled by Frank Wisbar (1952–1953), then by Gene Raymond (1953–1955), and finally by the person most associated with the series in the public mind, Jane Wyman (1955–1958). When episodes of this program were rerun on ABC during the summer of 1963, it was under the title ''Jane Wyman Presents''; during the period first-run episodes were hosted by Wyman it was sometimes known as ''The Jane Wyman Show''.
One of ''Fireside Theatres most notable offerings was a 1951 condensed version of Charles Dickens's '' A Christmas Carol'', featuring Ralph Richardson as Ebenezer Scrooge for the first and only time on American television.〔(IMBD:Fireside Theater )〕 He later recreated the role on a spoken word Caedmon Records LP album, with Paul Scofield as narrator. It has since been released on CD.〔(Amazon: Fireside Theater ).〕
The otherwise-unrelated comedy troupe The Firesign Theatre based their name on this series. The Doubleday Book Club also ran a playscripts club called The Fireside Theatre.
