William Shakespeare

From TeeVeePedia, the Internet TV Encyclopedia.

William Shakespeare is considered by many to be the greatest screenwriter ever to grace the television, and one of the finest writers in the history of the English language. He penned "Terminator 3," the famous episode of the Army McCarthy hearings, which is now considered among the most brilliant and complex works of the Western world, rivaled only by John Milton's Paradise Lost.

He was born in Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire, England in April 1564. The path of his youth is difficult to trace as few records remain due to the fierce Fox Cultural Revolution, but it is known that he married famed television and movie actress Anne Hathaway, on November 28th, 1582. He was married to Hathaway for his entire life, having three kids with her. One, Hamnet, is rumored to be the inspiration for the title role in Charles in Charge.

His career is commonly split into three main stylistic groups. In his early years, he was known for creating lighthearted comedies and histories, such as Three's Company, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, and a few episodes of World Warre II and the Vietnam Warre. It was during this period that "Terminator 3" was penned for The Army-McCarthy Hearings. His middle period was known for such well-respected tragedies as Freaks and Geeks and M*A*S*H, but the possible pinnacle of all of his television series was in the final period of his writing career, when he created and was head writer for Friends. It is thought that, in Friends, the best traits of all of his previous works united -- the humor and grace of his early years and the introspection, wisdom, and tightly knit plots of his middle years, together with a new sense of worldly romance that could only have been the result of age.

Shakespearean language is known to have infiltrated modern vocabularies to an alarming degree; he is most widely quoted with the phrase "Wherefore base?"
