Playhouse 90 is the name of a ninety-minute long dramatic television series that ran on CBS from 1956 to 1961. An anthology in form, each week presented an independent story, allowing the show to form a collective of work that includes such diverse programs as The Miracle Worker, Rod Serling's Requiem for a Heavyweight, The Comedian, In the Presence of Mine Enemies and Judgment at Nuremberg, many of which were later produced as feature-length films. The show frequently dominated the annual Emmy Award ceremonies and quickly established a reputation as one of television's most distinguished programs.
