The conversation between the sacred and the secular
"Insight" was Paulist Productions' landmark anthology television series that aired nationally in syndication from 1960 to 1983. Called the "experimental theater of Hollywood television," it was created, produced and hosted by Paulist Fr. Ellwood E. "Bud" Kieser (1929–2000).
Top Hollywood artists such as Martin Sheen, William Shatner, Jack Klugman, Rod Serling, Ida Lupino, Bob Newhart, Patty Duke, William Peter Blatty and Michael Crichton contributed their talents to the series, drawn by the show’s reputation for stretching the creative boundaries of television.
Fondly remembered for its “Twilight Zone”-esque tone, “Insight” received critical acclaim and won numerous Emmy Awards for addressing difficult social issues and humanist themes, often with black humor or stark realism.
