Television film

A television film (also known as a TV film; television movie; TV movie; telefilm; telemovie; made-for-television film; direct-to-TV film; movie of the week (MOTW or MOW); feature-length drama; single drama and original movie) is a feature-length motion picture that is produced for, and originally distributed by or to, a television network, in contrast to theatrical films, which are made explicitly for initial showing in movie theaters.

Origins and history

Though not exactly labelled as such, there were early precedents for "television movies", such as Talk Faster, Mister, which aired on WABD (now WNYW) in New York City on December 18, 1944, and was produced by RKO Pictures, or the 1957 The Pied Piper of Hamelin, based on the poem by Robert Browning, and starring Van Johnson, one of the first filmed "family musicals" made directly for television. That film was made in Technicolor, a first for television, which ordinarily used color processes originated by specific networks (most "family musicals" of the time, such as Peter Pan, were not filmed but broadcast live and preserved on kinescope, a recording of a television program made by filming the picture from a video monitor – and the only method of recording a television program until the invention of videotape).

TV Movie

I woke up last night shaking from a dream,
For in that dream I died
My wife rolled over and told me
That my life would be immortalized
Not in some major motion picture
Or great american novel you see
They're gonna make a TV Movie out of me
It's one two three you take the money
It's as easy as A, B, C
They're gonna make a TV Movie out of me
They can change my name or they can leave it
They can change my story too
Or they can make me black or Chinese
And do things that I never did do
They're gonna give my life a whole new ending
And put me in prime time first-run
And when it's over what I did there will be what I done
Now I don't want my name in a history book
Nobody's ever gonna see
They're gonna make a TV Movie out of me
It's one two three you take the money
It's as easy as A, B, C
They're gonna make a TV Movie out of me
Well I'm a shoe-in for a sponsor
Goodyear blimp and radial wheels
Somebody had a meeting somewhere
Somehow somebody made a deal
I was one of them kinds of stories
That everybody liked to see
They're gonna make a TV Movie out of me
Now I don t want no inscription on my grave stone
No long soliloquy
They're gonna make a TV movie out of me
It's one two three you take the money
It's as easy as A, B, C
