Confession (crime interviews, hosted by Jack Wyatt)

    (ABC Primetime, 1958 - 1959)

    [This series produced by Four Star television
     was atypical -- it consisted of interviews with 
     convicted criminals who related their crimes on
     camera from prison; whether it was the lack of
     a credible re-inactment (the way today's actuality
     shows do it), or whether there was some other
     reason...this series only lasted one season...
     ...but it may be important from a historical 
     perspective as it foreshadows the reality series
     that were to dominate television in the 1990s...]
