Business Wire: National Comedy Center, Carl Reiner Announce Preservation of Historic “Dick Van Dyke Show” Archive (PRESS RELEASE)

Business Wire: National Comedy Center, Carl Reiner Announce Preservation of Historic “Dick Van Dyke Show” Archive (PRESS RELEASE). “The scripts, which are heavily annotated in Reiner’s own hand, have been stored away since the series wrapped production in 1966, and have never before been made available to a cultural institution for conservation or exhibition. Scripts for all 158 episodes, totaling more than 7,500 pages, feature detailed edits and additions made in real-time during the writing, read-throughs and rehearsals for each episode – providing extraordinary access into the script development and creative process for the 15-time Emmy-winning situation comedy.”
