Introduction

If one puzzle remains it is in the minds of those who are bewildered by television fame. So-and-so’s name has become a household name – but why? What do they do? The answer is that television fame must be judged by television standards, all others forgotten. When we make friends we do not stop to ask: What do they do? We like them for their personality alone. The medium of the small screen has brought new friends to every household. And that, for sure, is television.
