“TV’S NUCLEAR NIGHTMARE” a fall 1983 Newsweek cover screamed, as American viewers awaited the long-publicized premiere of a made-for-TV movie depicting an all-out nuclear exchange with the Soviets. The threat of nuclear annihilation loomed, and THE DAY AFTER played on these fears to a staggering 100 million viewers (the largest TV movie audience in history at that point). TELEVISION EVENT tracks the unlikely evolution of this audacious project after it is greenlit by the ABC Network. Director Nicholas Meyer (STAR TREK II: THE WRATH OF KHAN) combatively, hilariously details a succession of clashes with network executives and censors.
