The 1939 Wizard of Oz's musical fantasy movie was first shown in theaters that year, then re-released nationally in 1949 and again in 1955. It was first broadcast on television on Saturday, 3 November 1956. The film is featured as the final installment of the anthology series of CBS Ford Star Jubilee . Since the broadcast, it has been shown each by CBS, NBC, WB Network, and several national cable channels Ted Turner. It was never licensed to any local affiliate broadcast TV station. From 1959 to 1991, it was an annual tradition on American commercial television networks. During these years, and for some afterwards, it is always shown as a special television.
After the film aired on television for the second time, its network exposure became a highly anticipated family event in the United States, attracting many audiences every year for years. Between 1956 and 1980, commercial broadcast television was the only way families could see The Wizard of Oz unless they attended the MGM Matinees for children in the early 1970s.
Until 1999, the film had been screened in the US only on commercial television broadcasts. After the movie was screened that year, TV shows became more frequent, and television broadcasting tradition only once a year ended, at least in the US.
The Wizard of Oz has become perhaps the most famous movie regularly featured on US television, and one of the most cherished. Of the many family music fantasies that aired after the successful 1955 version of Mary Martin Peter Pan , The Wizard of Oz is the only one that is still displayed regularly. After the premiere of 1956, there was no re-release of the film until 1959. The 1959-1962 broadcasts took place in the fall between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Beginning with the 1963-64 season, this special presentation was seen in the first quarter of this year. The film was not broadcast in the US in 1963, 1992, 1995, or 1997.
The film was first published in a home video format in 1980.

First pageview
The Wizard of Oz, which has been critical but only a modest financial success during running the theater, was chosen to be the first Hollywood film to be shown cut in prime time on the coast to coastline television network. The first airing took place on Saturday 3 November 1956 as part of the latest program in the CBS anthology series canceled Ford Star Jubilee . A highly-budgeted but highly rated spinning potpourri including a well-publicized debut clock hosted by Judy Garland. The original asking price of $ 250,000 was negotiated by MGM lawyer, then company president Frank Rosenfelt. The network pays MGM $ 225,000 for the rights to broadcast the movie twice with the option to relaunch it if the broadcast is successful.
The 1956 broadcast was featured in CBS's response to the successful broadcast of Broadway musicals Peter Pan with Mary Martin, who has been particularly excited for TV at NBC Studios as part of the anthology series. Showcase Producer . Peter Pan was first shown live on TV by NBC in 1955, and was repeated (again live) by a public request in 1956. His immense success on television ushered in the temporary "mode" of most families live special deals based on fantasy stories, such as Aladdin (1958, and has nothing to do with Disney movies), Alice in Wonderland (1955) (live-action version), Rodgers and Hammerstein's
For the first TV broadcast The Wizard of Oz , usually 90 minutes Ford Star Jubilee expanded up to two hours to accommodate the entire movie, which, in addition to getting a commercial break, was a celebrity hosted. The main reason CBS set the host for the movie was that in the 101st minute, the movie was not considered long enough to be played in the 120 minute slot given at that time, even with a commercial break, with no additional content to compress it. all broadcasts up to two hours.
The 1956 television drama of the film marked the only time the actor who appeared in the film was chosen to host: Bert Lahr, who has played Lion Cowardly and Zeke in the film, appeared next to 10 years later. Liza Minnelli, and young Oz expert Justin G. Schiller. Lorna Luft, Minnelli's half-sister, did not show up because she was only four at the time, though she had her picture taken with Minnelli in a promotional photo. Unlike some other Oz impressions, it looks like there were no photos taken during the hosting sequence in 1956. The business practice of celebrity performances on a regular basis "hosting" The Wizard of Oz takes place from a movie the first that aired television until 1968, when the film went to NBC after it aired on CBS nine times.
The film is always presented cut in a two hour time slot between 1956 and 1968, despite having ads and host segments. Professor Marvel's sequence was never eliminated (at least in American movies), and the Munchkinland tracking shot was not edited until the film went to NBC in 1968.
The first broadcast of this film received a positive critical notification in the newspaper the next day. Variety prophesy magazine recommends that the film can be broadcast every year and at a previous time.

Telecasts in Pre-Cable Era
The film was not re-broadcast in 1957 or 1958. To air from 1959 (the year of the second show) to 1998, the film is always featured as a stand-alone television instead of part of an anthology or film series. Between 1959 and 1968, and again in 1990 when Angela Lansbury, CBS star ' Murder He Wrote, , hosted a 50th anniversary broadcast, CBS chose the host of the main line of the time. In 1959, the host was Red Skelton ( The Red Skelton Show ); in 1960 it was Richard Boone (Have Gun, Will Travel), in 1961 and 1962 it was Dick Van Dyke ( The Dick Van Dyke Show ), and from 1964 to 1967, it's Danny Kaye ( The Danny Kaye Show ). Skelton, Boone and Van Dyke took their young children together to appear with them.
Although the hosting segment for 1956 movie broadcasting must be done live, the Skelton, Boone, Van Dyke and Kaye segments are recorded on the video tape before it airs. The Lansbury hosting segment is the first recorded in the movie.
During these years, the order of hosting is not staged in a run-of-the-mill way, with the host only standing in a studio set, but in what could be considered an imaginative way. Richard Boone was recorded on the set of his TV series "Have Gun, Will Travel" in the "living room" with his biological son who will watch movies on TV. Dick Van Dyke is shown in the living room with his children, and Danny Kaye's hosting segment features him sitting in a padded prop chair with a painted background from Jalan Bata Kuning and Kota Emerald. Kaye's segment does not include television as part of its design.
Some humor is sometimes incorporated into this segment. Red Skelton is seen as two characters: Before the movie begins, he is seen in a studio studio early in the 20th century, in costume as a Victorian storyteller who introduced the original novel by L. Frank Baum in 1900 The Wonderful Wizard of Oz for a young girl played by Skelton's real princess, and at the end of the film, she appears in the studio recreation of the modern living room as herself. Danny Kaye convinces viewers not to panic when the movie begins in black and white rather than color, and encourages younger viewers not to be afraid of the roaring MGM lion at the beginning of the film. No director or writer is credited for the order of hosting, just as no one is credited for the hosting segment before the movie in Turner Classic Movies.
The Wizard of Oz did not become an annual television tradition soon - only after 1959 showed, when, because of the previous hour in which it was shown (18:00, EST), more children were broadcast into the broadcast , and it's gaining a larger television audience than ever before. The 1959 airing was particularly welcomed by media critic John Crosby, who commented on the New York Herald Tribune, "Television - every television - looks very ordinary after The Wizard of Oz." From 1959 to 1991, the film was aired once every year, except in 1963, when it was not aired at all.
WISN-TV in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, did not broadcast an annual network of Oz in 1961, the year WISN started its affiliate with CBS, running the Green Bay Packers football instead. However, due to the anger of the audience, WISN can obtain permission to run the film locally at 2:00 pm. C.S.T., on Christmas Eve.
In 1978, after the film returned to CBS, the computer damage at CBS owned and operated by WBBM-TV in Chicago inadvertently cut off most of the year's end of the year's Oz , disrupting the end of the minutes with commercial blocks which should not air until after the movie ends. Because the pause is only 42 seconds, no attempt is made to overwrite the computer, for fear of making the problem worse. For several hours thereafter, the WBBM received angry phone calls from viewers, while those who could not get past chose to voice their displeasure, wrote letters to the Chicago Tribune and Chicago Sun-Times i>.
"Cover" opening and closing credits
This film, as it aired on US television between 1959 and 1968, is arguably a far more complicated TV presentation than it receives afterwards. During those years, he always had a wraparound opening and closing segment of video credits designed by CBS, accompanied by a self-recorded network opening and closing music based on movie scores. For the opening of the "cover" of credit, the title The Wizard of Oz and the names of the five main actors, Judy Garland, Frank Morgan, Ray Bolger, Bert Lahr, and Jack Haley, were first shown in Format and the CBS font itself, while the anonymous broadcaster reads it and then follows it with the announcement of the movie sponsor: "Part of The Wizard of Oz is presented by you.. [name of sponsor mentioned]". This specially designed opening credit never mentions that this movie was made by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. From 1959 to 1964, CBS created a different cover credits for every performance, but because the same hosting segment - Danny Kaye - was shown between 1964 and 1968, the audience saw the same "cover" credit from 1964 until the film went to NBC.
A special introduction to CBS was followed by a host who talked about the film for about three minutes or so. The words lead to the actual film, beginning with all of his early 1939 opening credits (shown against a moving cloud background), including the MGM Leo the Lion logo, movie name, player list, and mainstream of staff film, just like MGM has created them, with the title of the main music of the film being heard.
The host reappears just before the second half of the film begins, to say a few more words about it, before the broadcast continues with the rest of the movie, including the ad.
However, by the end of the movie, the list of movie cover players, as created by MGM, is not shown, and the title card with "The End" right after the closing line Dorothy was never seen on television during this early CBS show. On the contrary, as soon as Dorothy uttered her last sentence ("Oh, Aunt Em, there's no place like home!"), And the camera faded on her, television viewers once again saw CBS's own title card The Wizard of Oz this time was accompanied by several endings of the movie, just as it sounded on the soundtrack, and the announcer's voice said that the host for that year would be back in a minute. After the last ad, the host was then seen once again, to say goodbye to TV viewers, and CBS showed its own version of the list of players that appeared during the final credits of the movie. In the end, referring to both the movie and the hosting segment, the same broadcaster stated that "It has been a movie and video presentation."
Shown in color
From the beginning The Wizard of Oz was broadcast in color, although only a few people had color television in 1956. Except for 1961, all US television shows had been colored, an effect that seemed much more noticeable in the beginning 1960s, when there were still relatively few color programs on television. It was not broadcast in color in 1961 because color airing had to be paid for by their sponsors, who refused to do so that year. Between 1956 and 1965, the Wizard of Oz show was a rare exception to the black and white program schedule on CBS. During this period, CBS has the ability to broadcast colored programs, but generally prefer not to do so unless a sponsor pays for a movie or program to be displayed in color. During this period, NBC's competing network was owned by RCA, which in 1960 produced 95% of the color set sold in the US Therefore, CBS felt that increased use of color broadcasting would primarily benefit its rival by promoting the sale of RCA color television.
It was not until the fall of 1965 that color broadcasts played a major role in CBS and ABC, by which time half the network shows from ABC and CBS were being created and displayed in color. Meanwhile, all but two of NBC's main performances are colorful and most of NBC's daytime shows are. In the fall of 1966, the three networks produced all their main performances in color. By the time the movie went to NBC in 1968, all networking events (except for reruns of black and white movies) were colored.
Later hosts
Partly because commercial time during the program increased starting in the late 1960s, the idea of ââregularly having a host to introduce the film was dropped when The Wizard of Oz went to NBC in 1968, where there was no "cover "sequence is displayed. The presentation consists only of the movie itself, with the initial opening and closing of the credit, and no special NBC credit or hosting segment. The famous NBC peacock was shown immediately before the start of the film, with broadcaster Mel Brandt saying that "the first 22 minutes of the program [ie Kansas and tornado sequences] will be shown in black and white", not a pretty accurate statement, because the last three minutes of the film this also took place in Kansas, and at that time also featured in black and white, not in the sepia tone in which they were originally made (sepia not returned to the Kansas scene and tornado until 1989, the 50th anniversary of the film). However, an NBC television broadcast featuring an in-screen host: 1970, which opened with veteran actor Gregory Peck paid tribute to Judy Garland who just died (segment directed by producer Mervyn LeRoy, who marked the first TV job), though this segment consisting of only a few brief comments, while the opening hosting segment on CBS has been going on for about three minutes or so. The NBC Oz airs commenced the tradition of the yearly film performances during Easter and Easter seasons of the year as opposed to the winter show on CBS.
Network redirections resulted because CBS was unwilling to cope with MGM price increases - fostered by increasing popularity - for the renewal of the rights to display it. The film remained at NBC until 1976. When CBS, aware of its mistake in allowing it to go to other networks, bought back the rights to the price MGM requested, their viewership ratings increased, and an audible executive commented, "The picture is better [to network] than the oil wells. "
After 1976 returning to CBS, the film was hosted on the network only once again, in a segment of the film featuring Angela Lansbury in 1990, but the opening and closing of the CBS "cover" credit was not - and never - revived, though, over the years -that year, a blue card featuring a rainbow painting and the The Wizard of Oz title is displayed on the screen while a program or program disguised at night becomes displayed at regular times and sponsorship is announced, and immediately before and after commercial breaks. In the 1980s a clip of the film was shown on a red background with the title indicated at the beginning, while still from Emerald City with the title used during the advertisement. Angela Lansbury also narrated a documentary on filmmaking, originally titled The Wonderful Wizard of Oz: 50 Years of Magic and years later titled The Wizard Wonderful of Oz: The Making of a Classic Movie . It was first shown shortly after the 1990 movie, and was included as a supplement on all DVD releases starting with the 1999 DVD release. Jack Haley, Jr., director of the documentary film, was nominated for an Emmy Award for his work.
When displayed in Turner Classic Movies, The Wizard of Oz is usually hosted by TCM host Robert Osborne.
On June 3, 2007, Tom Kenny, the voice of SpongeBob SquarePants, hosted a Movie on Turner Classic Movies, as part of Essentials, Jr. , special summer family movie series.
On July 27, 2008, the film was shown twice in a row on Turner Network Television without a host, but with ads, and with "pop-up" animated ads for other TNT programs at the bottom of the screen just before and after the advertisement breaks.
On March 24 and 25, 2012, the film is hosted on Cartoon Network by television actor Robert Wu, who provides Mr. Washee Washee in the episode of Family Guy , "Tiegs for Two". This airing runs for two and a half hours, longer than CBS or NBC.
On June 10, 2012, which will be the 90th anniversary of Judy Garland, the film is broadcast on Turner Classic Movies without advertising, and is hosted by comedian Bill Hader, again as part of Summer Essentials, Jr. series of family movies. Unlike the CBS hosting segment that is part of the 1960s movie show, the Hader segment shows clips from the movie before it actually starts.
Sponsor
Being a network TV presentation, "The Wizard of Oz" is subject to the sponsorship of various advertisers.
The first impression "Oz" is a presentation of the Ford Star Jubilee and thus sponsored by Ford Motor Company and its dealers. In the following years from 1959 to 1967, the yearly live was sponsored by one major sponsor with a co-sponsor. Perhaps the most remembered example is the one sponsored by Procter and Gamble and promoted when the company provides premium free hand puppets with packages from some of its most popular products. Many also remember the 1970 television show presented at NBC by Singer Manufacturing Company as a tribute to Judy Garland, who died in June 1969.
In later years, several different advertisers shared sponsorships; no advertisers are dominating.
Television rating
The show in 1983 was the 25th premiere of the network, a recording for any particular film or television. In the first nine performances, all on CBS, The Wizard of Oz earns at least 49% of television viewers. In 1966, it ranked No. 1 in the rankings for the week shown. Between 1960 and 1968, the film even beat the episodes of ABC-TV Walt Disney Presents (1960) and NBC Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color (from 1961 to 1968) which aired on the opposite side of the movie. While the film moved temporarily from CBS to NBC, it always preceded the Disney program, except for once, when NBC showed Oz on Saturday in 1968. When CBS bought the movie back from NBC in 1976, it again starts to beat the Disney episode in the rankings. This preceded Disney on one more occasion, after the series moved into the network in the early 1980s.
In 2006, the first year featured on TV in high definition, the film puts No. 11 in Nielsen rankings among cable television programs for the week of November 11th.
Changes made in running time
From 1968 to 1984, small snippets were made for the film to make room for additional commercial time and to have a "clock" movie in two hours. No dialogs or chants were deleted, just moments like camera panning and shooting, and MGM's written introduction to the film.
On several occasions that began in 1985, again due to the increased time spent on commercial breaks, the movie was compressed time to adjust it to two hours without cutting it. However, The Wizard of Oz is now always displayed complete and at regular speed on television, both with and without advertising. When shown with an ad, the movie now runs for about two hours and fifteen minutes, simply because of the increase in commercial time.
March 1991 shows
The March 1991 show was the first after the film gained the protection status of the Library of Congress and the National Film Preservation Board. The network chose not to shorten the movie with "microcutting" some individual moments throughout the film as it had done from the late 1960s to early 1980s to make room for advertisements and store them in a two-hour broadcast. This extends the film's playback time from 8P.M to 10: 07pm. and sometimes even longer, depending on the amount of time spent on advertising. This is one of the first 50 films selected for this protection.
Move to cable
In the 1980s, Ted Turner bought a movie from MGM, along with Gone with the Wind . As both films are still licensed to CBS, Turner and the network negotiate an agreement that extends the CBS license for Oz in exchange for the release of his rights to Gone with the Wind. In 1991, the film was shown twice a year for the first time. 1991 also marks the first time since 1956 that the film was featured in November. This also happened in 1993, when the film aired in February and November of that year. The film was not shown on television at all in 1992, 1995 and 1997, marking the first time since 1963 that a year is spent in a movie show. Turner, who owns most of MGM's pre-May 1986 film and television library (later owned by Warner Bros.), began to move to make his property exclusive to Turner-owned stores in the late 1990s; thus, in 1998, The Wizard of Oz made his last appearance on CBS, moving exclusively to Turner-owned properties next year.
The year 2000 marked the first time the film was screened on US television during the summer. In 2002, it was shown five times.
On November 6, 2011, TBS became an American television channel where The iWizard of Oz has been shown most often, when the film has shown the 32nd on the channel, eventually breaking the record of 31 CBS performances. On April 29, 2013, Turner Classic Movies has shown the movie 23 times.
Difference between network and cable views
In addition to frequent cable shows, another distinction between performances on NBC, CBS, WB networks, and cable channels is when movies are shown on CBS and NBC, it's always presented as special, not just a television movie. From 1959 to cable, the film was never featured on NBC's Saturday Night at the Movies or any other anthology film series, and regular screenings of movies precede two hours or more from regular television programs.
The promo for the CBS and NBC show during the 1960s began airing on television two weeks prior to the airing of that year and still aired until the end of 1989. On the main commercial network, it was never called "CBS Movie Special" or "NBC Movie Special" movies featured on the network are often termed, but only as The Wizard of Oz .
Aspect ratio
The theatrical relays of 1955 and 1998 were not widely aired in theaters to produce widescreen effects for standard-aspect ratio aspect films.
When displayed on an HDTV, the film is pillared with boxes so that aspect ratio is maintained. On DVDs, the film is always published in its original 1939 aspect ratio.
Outside the United States
The film has also been shown on television successfully in the UK, Canada and is featured annually in Australia, but has not yet become a US television phenomenon in the United States. The film premiered for the first time on the newly launched RCTI television network in November 1989, with reruns of four other networks in the 1990s. In Japan, the film has been shown in the Japanese version of The Magical World of Disney, although Disney has nothing to do with its production or release.

The reason why the film did not air in December 1963 was never stated, but some say it was because of the assassination of John F. Kennedy, others say that the rooms need to be made for more Christmas-themed specials and that the film will be more suitable during January.

The Wizard Of Oz year returns to CBS. It's still there for another twenty-two years, a possible record in those years for a sequential movie show on a network. Originally the film aired in late winter/early spring, but beginning in 1991, the film moves back and forth from spring to late fall. Another change is that CBS is no longer starting the movie before its normal prime time. Prior to 1976, when it was run on a day other than Sunday, NBC took back at 7 pm. East/6 pm Central Time slots from affiliates to run the movie early enough so the kids can see it before bed. Also, before 1968, CBS always took at 6 pm. hour to run the movie earlier. The logic is that time has changed and children now live a little slower than they did in the past. Since then, if featured in the 6th to 8th or 7th to 9th night time slots on CBS, the film precedes 60 Minutes , thus starting in 1978, CBS executives moved the show into the night- another night of the week. If the movie airs on a Sunday, CBS usually schedules it at 8 pm, so do not contradict 60 Minutes . (Starting 2017, 60 Minutes continues to air in the same 7th week time slot on CBS.)
