5 van 19 17-4-2012 11:11

Note: Six episodes of this season were recorded on videotape (not on film as all other episodes) at CBSTelevision City, as a cost-cutting measure mandated by CBS programming head James T. Aubrey. They are"The Lateness of the Hour", "The Night of the Meek", "The Whole Truth", "Twenty-Two", "Static", and"Long Distance Call". These have a visual appearance which is distinctly different than episodes shot onfilm. In addition, videotape was a relatively primitive medium in the early 1960s, thus the editing of tape wasnext to impossible. Each of the episodes was therefore "camera-cut" as in live TV—on a studio sound stage,using a total of four cameras. The requisite multi-camera setup of the videotape experiment made locationshooting difficult, severely limiting the potential scope of the storylines, and so, the short-lived experimentwas abandoned.
