Fame Farm

Bruce W. Cook

4.9/5 (18164 ratings)

Description:In the final days of the golden era of television, before the thirty something suits with business degrees from Princeton invaded Hollywood and turned television into 382 channels of reality, shopping, talk and dribble, three young men would meet at the University of Southern California film school setting their individual and collective sights on careers in the world of the small screen. This is their story. One had looks, another had talent and the third had connections. Starting at the bottom of the ladder, the way success in Hollywood used to begin with a more sensible predictability, each set out to “make it”. Set against a backdrop of the major networks still controlled by the pioneering genius of the big three: Paley of CBS, Goldenson of ABC and Sarnoff of NBC, the three young protagonists, allegorically mirroring the mystical and magical three kings and three networks of television, will sacrifice everything to make their dreams a reality. This is a story about the cost of fame. The novel takes its cue from real Hollywood experiences weaving the characters and true events, taking the reader into the world of television when the sit com was king and stars had careers that lasted a generation, not just a fleeting and flashing moment in time. Ultimately this is a novel about the choices people make when faced with the pursuit of money, fame and glory. In the end, is it fame over justice, money over love?
