Subject: The World Turns, Indeed Here are the last minutes of normalcy before the country faced a great national tragedy. The first bulletin occurs at the ten-minute mark. Most interesting is how CBS returned to the show (and its commercials) several times. That would never happen today.



The actors on "As The World Turns" did not "stand by." They continued to perform on the show, though some of them heard from the crew what was happening. The show was completed, but as seen here, most of it did not air on the network. A copy of the complete episode, videotaped, without interruptions, exists at the Paley Center for Media.



Just another typical television day in 1963, until suddenly it wasn't. - September 25, 2014The World Turns, Indeed
