Bracken's World

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bracken's World was a television program broadcast on NBC from 1969-1970. It was centered on a powerful producer and his studio's group of up-and-coming starlets. During the first season, Eleanor Parker received top billing as Sylvia Caldwell, executive secretary to Century Studios head John Bracken, who was sometimes heard but never seen. Warren Stevens provided the voice of the unseen Bracken. When the second season began, Parker was gone and Leslie Nielsen had been added to the cast to portray Bracken. Bracken's World was cancelled midway through its second season due to low ratings, perhaps because the concept of the studio system was completely obsolete by 1970, and the show was set in contemporary times.

Other cast members included Elizabeth Allen, Dennis Cole, Jeanne Cooper, Peter Haskell, Karen Jensen, Madlyn Rhue, and Laraine Stephens; many then-current movie stars made cameo appearances.
