West 57th (TV series)
''West 57th'' is a newsmagazine series which aired on CBS from August 13, 1985, through September 9, 1989. ''West 57th'' originally premiered as a summer series, and took its name from the New York address of the CBS Broadcast Center. The original correspondents were Jane Wallace, Bob Sirott, Meredith Vieira and John Ferrugia. Later contributors included Steve Kroft, Selina Scott, Karen Burnes and Stephen Schiff.
The style of the program was intended to use the contemporary tools of television to tell compelling stories. The show's popularity, a concern for ''60 Minutes'' creator Don Hewitt, prompted pundit Andy Rooney to dedicate one of his closing segments on his program to a parody of ''West 57th'' correspondents.
After the cancellation, the show was replaced by ''Saturday Night with Connie Chung''. Vieira and fellow correspondent Steve Kroft transferred to ''60 Minutes'', where Kroft currently remains. Vieira went on to anchor NBC's ''Today Show'' (after appearing on ''The View'' for 9 years). Sirott moved to Chicago to continue a successful career in local TV and radio. John Ferrugia moved to Denver, where he is an award-winning investigative reporter for KMGH-TV.

The show was widely criticized for its slickness and superficiality. ''The Christian Science Monitor'' called it “a ditsy, disco-beat docu-mag for viewers with a short attention span.”〔http://www.csmonitor.com/1985/0812/l57.html〕
