PBS's superb dramatic anthology included classic as well as original works, and ranged in subject matter from adult puppet theater to the Chicago conspiracy trial to Clifford Odets' `Awake and Sing.' Perhaps its most notable production was the Emmy-winning `The Andersonville Trial,' which re-created the 1865 war crimes trial of Confederate captain Henry Wirz, and starred William Shatner, Jack Cassidy and Richard Basehart. It was directed by George C. Scott.
