White, Betty: Here We Go Again (My Life in Television)
"America's queen of television shares her fascinating life story!
Here is Betty White -- a woman who has been on television forever! is generally how Betty White is introduced. And quite accurately, too, since she first appeared in 1949 when both she and television were rank beginners. Since then, she has had one of the most amazing careers in TV, winning five Emmy awards, creating such unforgettable characters as Sue Ann Nivens and Rose Nylund, and appearing in a host of television classics from 1952's Life with Elizabeth to The Mary Tyler Moore Show and The Golden Girls. Here We Go Again gives an overview of television's golden era, packed full of wonderful anecdotes about the many famous personalities with whom Betty has worked. It also gives a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at television over five decades, from her first show, Hollywood on Television which ran live five and a half hours a day six days a week (33 hours per week!), to Betty's current television work. In addition, she talks about her personal life -- how her hectic career caused strain in her relationships and how she finally found happiness with her third husband, the late talk show host Allen Ludden.
As warm and funny as its author, Here We Go Again will thrill her many fans and delight all of those who are interested in the history of America's most popular form of entertainment.
Five-time Emmy-winner Betty White enchants readers with her life story--and provides a behind-the-scenes look at television, from the early days to the present, offering often hilarious anecdotes about such stars as Jack Paar, Johnny Carson, Allen Ludden, Merv Griffin, Cher, Bea Arthur, and Raymond Burr."

click here to order Cotter, Bill: The Wonderful World of Disney Television (A Complete History)
"Accompanied by black-and-white photographs and statistics, a unique chronicle follows all of Disney's television programs and includes complete schedules of all broadcasts, seasonal highlights, behind-the-scenes stories, plot synopses, and much more. (...) A major part of my childhood was watching Disney television shows - The Mickey Mouse Club, Davy Crockett, Zorro and more. Years later this led to my working for Disney, and now, a book that describes every episode of every Disney series [such as the Golden Girls]. It begins back in 1944 when Walt was first thinking about getting into television, and includes today's hits like Home Improvement and Ellen. The 10+ years of research included total access to The Disney Archives and watching more than 4,000 hours of television. It was a true labor of love, and a great chance to relive my childhood. Now, with The Wonderful World of Disney back on Sunday night, the tradition started by Walt continues."

Gold, Andrew: All This And Heaven Too
"This was my personal favorite of all my albums, as a whole, and contained another US hit (Thank You For Being A Friend), as well as 3 UK hits, including my biggest in the UK, Never Let Her Slip Away. Brock and I had great fun that year. Thank You For Being A Friend was later used as THE GOLDEN GIRLS Theme. Some of the Eagles came down during the recording of Never Let Her Slip Away, and you may notice they ripped the beginning of my song for Heartache Tonight the next year. Lucky we're friends..grrrr"

Gold, Andrew: The Best Of (Thank You For Being A Friend)
"This is the long awaited greatest hits compilation from his 4 1970 solo LPs, many songs of which are for the first time being released on CD. Includes all the hits, such as LONELY BOY and THANK YOU FOR BEING A FRIEND (later used as THE GOLDEN GIRLS TV Theme) and NEVER LET HER SLIP AWAY, among others. Of special interest is the release of THE FINAL FRONTIER, the theme from MAD ABOUT YOU. The song was written by PAUL REISER and DON WAS and is performed by Andrew each week on the show, now alternating with a new version by Anita Baker. This album also includes 2 new songs, THE KING OF SHOWBIZ and CAN ANYBODY SEE YOU, which also appear on Andrews new solo album, SINCE 1951."

Lewis, Jon E., and Stempel, Penny: Cult TV (1993)
The essential critical guide:
Penny Stempel and Jon E. Lewis have researched the best-loved series and serials of all genres, from both sides of the Atlantic, from the 1950s to the 90s. In over 300 informative entries they outline how each series was created, recall its stars, catch phrases and outstanding episodes, reveal little-known facts about it and spot now-famous names in their first bit-part. Video availability is also noted, while numerous cross-references and a comprehensive index, as well as over 70 photographic skills, make for sometimes contentious but always compulsive reading.
