- East Side/West Side is an American drama series starring George C. Scott, Elizabeth Wilson, Cicely Tyson, and later on, Linden Chiles. The series aired for one season (1963-64) and was shown Monday nights on CBS.
Set in New York City, the show explored issues of urban life, some of them grim. Though it won critical praise, it also generated some controversy. TV Guide ranked it #6 on their 2013 list of 60 shows that were "Cancelled Too Soon"An upwardly mobile black family moves into a previously all-white neighborhood in suburban Long Island, New York. Chuck and Anne Severson, who are Neil's friends, at first welcome them to the neighborhood, even though some of their friends and neighbors don't want the black family there. However, when local real estate agents start "blockbusting"--the practice of scaring white homeowners into selling their homes for less than they're worth by raising the prospect of more blacks moving into the neighborhood and lowering property values, then selling the homes at vastly inflated prices to those same black families--Chuck and Anne must decide whether their stand against racism is worth losing the investment they have in their home. - IMDb.com

I was 15 years old when this series aired and I watched it every week. I am now 75 years old and I have not met anyone from my generation who remembers this tv show.While most people were making a big deal about Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor,my first celebrity crushes were were Ruby Dee,Dorothy Dandridge and Cicely Tyson. Of course Sidney Poitier was the main man back then. I first saw him in Blackboard Jungle when it aired on television. Thank you Reelblack for chronicling the history of African Americans in cinema!
I remember it. My parents watched it every week and really missed it going off air. Nothing like it was made again as a series.
I was born in early 60s and find such posts nostalgic. Shows were better even though we only had 3 perhaps 4 📺 channels 😆
🥰👍🤗💐
@@erinmeggik391 I was born Jan 10,1960.
I feel blessed and grateful.

This THE BEST channel that gives and shows the HISTORY of African American art, film, music, and political voices! Thank you !
It really is. I'm constantly impressed with the content on this channel and I love discovering films and shows I've never heard of.
AfroSheenQueen that is the BEST for me as well! I hope you have a wonderful day!
Wht channels is that pl..

@@HeyMissINeedACocktailPleasecuz check out hyzekia films too he has alot of 60’s-70’s documentaries
I was 10yrs old when this first aired on TV in Detroit, here is one of my most memorable events, at 9yrs old, I joined the Nation Of Islam, and went through a "Black Phase" and I thought Cicely Tyson was so beautiful with her short "Afro" hair style, she got so much attention that she was on the cover of TV guide, Ebony and Jet, what struck me as odd (for a 10yr old at least) why were so many black women so upset with Ms. Tyson for wearing her hair the way it actually grew, and looking black, almost all my friends thought that she was very attractive, even the little white boys, and as I recall, only black women seem to be upset about her hair, I on the other hand loved it, and I remember my Mom started wearing her hair like Ms.Tyson, wow. Thank you Reelblack for posting this, you made me cry a little as I began to think about my childhood and those pivotal moments that helped shape the person I am today, thank you 🥰
I am younger than you but I can only imagine the criticsm Cicely got from Black women and especially Black men. Sadly, Black men have always criticized a Black woman's choice to wear her hair short and natural, then and now.
@@sayitloudblcknproud I will have to slightly disagree with you about the hair thing, the people who really raked Ms. Tyson over the coals were BLACK WOMEN! Many articles came out where black women were saying that Ms. Tyson was setting black women back a hundred years! This is why this you tube channel "ReelBlack" is important to me, and should be important to all black people in America, It is History, It is American history, now I'm going to give you a piece of history that you don't know, when the uproar over Ms.Tyson's hair became a big issue, the acting minister at Muhammad's Mosque No. 1 min. Philbert X Malcolm's brother, got together with some of the men at The Shrine Of The Black Madonna, they made flyers of beautiful black women in their natural state (hair) so over 100 young men and boys, I was one on them was passing out flyers to any and all black people, now here is where I disagree with you, not one man said anything negative about black women and their hair, not a one (at least to me and the group I was with passing out flyers) but I was stunned at how many women were up set about the whole issue, I never will forget what one woman told me and a group of young black boys "why should I wear my hair like that, looking like an African, I ain't no African" this hurt my feelings because when my mother first started wearing her hair natural, the first thing I said to her was that she looked like an African princess, her eyes watered up and she gave me a hug and a kiss, I have many stories, but will end it here, peace be with you
@@darrylbailey8397 wow....this is an important piece of history- thank you for sharing😊 How times have changed there is a lot of disrespect towards black women's hair nowadays....I am a 33 year old black woman from London, UK and I have always stayed in my natural state and I love it!!!! Again thank you for sharing 🖤
Hello..Only in African countries before 2009 ..did anyone really pay attention to natural,fine or course hair. In the USA women of color are pressured to compete with Anglo-Saxon females. Now Asian and Latino females feel the pressure to bleach their hair blonde. It looks strange when petite latino or oriental females have bad blonde dye jobs. Ethnic women will NEVER ..be white.. We can cgange our NAMES,NOSES,HAIR and BLEACH our skin... we are what we are...You just have to learn to role with the punches of "Bigots"..! Laugh off those sick people..
Love your comment and your last name, Darryl. Lol! My maiden name is Bailey as well.
Brilliant, thank you for posting, I am a Black woman, born in the UK 🇬🇧 of Nigerian descent.
A different tatic was used here called
"Red lining", where Estate agents and the local authorities just just grouped people of colour together into the slum areas. We built those areas up over decades made them vibrant, successful, prosperous and they came back and brought up all the houses and businesses and now have multimillion pound areas under gentrification. The game is played out worldwide.
I’m from the uk as well you’re right
That redlining game is universal.
They also called it redlining here. I presented over it a few months ago. Peace from across the pond!

I've seen endless comments about the support cast but hardly a mention of the giant who showed the courage to do quality TV when it was a risk to a film career. Among the best work of George C Scott's remarkable career.

My grandmother was a flaming racist. Even as a child I was horrified with her comments. Kids aren’t racists, they are taught. Love this series.

Ms. Cicely Tyson and Ms. Ruby Dee! 👑 Queens 👑 During their time they pierced the stage and television. Amazing trailblazers! George C. Scott is One of my favorite actors as well. All of the actors and actresses I recognized from other classics as well. Thank-you for posting this gem. Also for the gems in your channel.
My mother and father still talked about this show on and off for twenty five years after it ended! They would say when they saw George C. Scott or Cicely Tyson in something they would mention how great of a show East side West side was!! A truly good show never leaves your memory!!!
@James Hama I'm ok
@James Hama No you're not.
Thanks for sharing these

@@samueltorres9961 Your welcome!
It's nice seeing Earle Hyman in his early years
👍🏽💯🤗
@@user-mj8nf2vp7q Earle Hyman was my favorite acting instructor many years ago. He was a great guy.
Here because the Queen has transitioned to become an ancestor. It's only right I watch the gems and classics in her honor. Peep a young Ruby Dee in this too.

I LOVE THESE REELBLACK MOVIES
I just discovered them. They rival the Amazon prime movies.
wynetteabc I REALLY LOVE THESE ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
As an urban planner this is fascinating to watch, amazing that something like this was made in the 60s
Yes, this helps to explain what happened to a lot of our neighborhoods some 50 to 70 years later. And this travesty continues to happen in America and perhaps all over the world. There are laws against it in America, but it still happens on a smaller scale and in different ways even today.
Ricki B. I‘ve never seen a mainstream tv program from this era that was so explicit and honest about blockbusting/segregation.
@@vinceleus6091 It was courageous, groundbreaking and brilliant. That's why it only lasted a year. It's amazing that it lasted that long.
Why is it fascinating? There is entire history to learn of this...
Real talk
I’m broken over the passing of Queen Cecily. It’s like I thought she would live on this earth forever. I’m happy I found this series though. Not sure that I would have found it so soon otherwise.
Another well written episode from a great TV series. Thank you Reel Black for sharing these to a generation that needs to see it.✊🏿
This was amazing. RIP Cicely Tyson and Ruby Dee ❤️❤️
Tell me why i was born in 92 but still like black and white pictures
SUBSTANCE....you have it..
no color in black n white maybe?
You're an ole soul lol
Because you have good taste and are not part of the “group think”
You've been here before.. Perhaps !
what a fantastic cast - love Ruby Dee - thank you so much.
It is truly amazing how little people change in an ever changing world.
Everything changes...but you! (Them)....
So much going on in this show.
White Flight, allies, class, race, patriarchy, consumerism, micro aggressions about Jazz, George C Scott spittin truths about Larry Liberal!!!
Thanks for uploading it!
But 350$, 2960$ in todays dollars for a tape recorder???
Makes me appreciate all those Charlie Parker live recording even more.
Buy now, pay later. That’s another level. The suburban housewife trope was making me cringe. But yes, I agree, the speech Scott makes about “acceptable” Blacks was powerful. Almost makes me appreciate that Steve Martin/Queen Latifah movie more.
I remember East Side, West Side. I used to watch it with my mother. It was one of the best that television had to offer. Never steering away from controversial issues, a person was always smarter for watching. And Cicely Tyson became my favorite actress. I am so thrilled that you found this episode. I hope one day that it will be on dvd. The truly outstanding shows never make it to the light of day. RIP dearest Cicely Tyson, no one can take your place.
This was pretty brave for its day. The Nat King Cole Show had been forced off the air only six years earlier when the network couldn't get sponsors for his show.
Unfortunately, that's why it only stayed on air for one season. Almost 60 years later and racism is still alive and strong. SMH😢
I'd long heard about this show. I'm so glad to finally see it. So well written, directed, and acted.
Cicely Tyson, Ruby Dee, Earl Hyman, Lois Nettleton, and George C. Scott. May they all res in peace.
Lois Nettleton from In The Heat of the Night
from the people who brought us "Get Smart", N.Y.P.D.(1967-1969), featuring
Robert Hooks and other shows! This show was way ahead of its time.
I had a crush on Agent 99 Barbara Felton when I was a 9yr old
@@aarondigby5054same here, although I was more like 5 or 6, but I loved the Catwoman too ...all of them lol
If this is what the neighbourhood felt about the black couple Imagine an interracial couple had moved in.
😱🤯😢😡
House would have been burned to the ground..... with them inside
Exactly
My family disowned me. I am spanish and married and African American. I was treated horribly by three races. African American women, hispanic people and Caucasians treated me like I was an alien from outer space.
And this stupidity is still happening today in 2021
Wow...This show had practically EVERYONE as a guest-star.⭐
👍🏽💯🤗
I cannot believe how much I love this series. This is my second episode and I just saved the entire east side/west side series😍❤! It's so important even now. Thanks for exposing it to me.
just wanna say how FINE Ms. Ruby Dee and Cicely Tyson are
Lois Nettleton FINE as hell too.
Seriously, the impact of slavery, Jim Crow, Civil Rights and White Supremacy seems like it will never end. This show is 1963 and we're STILL dealing with race related issues and discrimination almost SIXTY years later. It's very discouraging, tbh.
Trump Train , yeah let’s just bury our heads in the sand, and maybe racism would just disappear!! Works for everything else in life... “sarcasm”
@@trumptrain3134 The 'race card'? So, are you saying that if the media didn't report on it, racism wouldn't happen?
Seems like most definitely it is here to stay racism is never going to go away
@@mommadeb2433 Your death-loving nihilism is noted.
@@trumptrain3134 as a black woman I 100% agree with you
So much trash gets shown on TV, but this here is a shining example of what an important art- form good TV can be and what a huge influence it’s had at it’s best in shaping society. Yes, the issues have not disappeared, but the times are changing and we all have to keep at it, just like these good people portrayed here. Never give up the good fight.
The Huxtable's grand dad!! And he was as handsome young as he was when he matured!
She was the stronger one. This is the first I heard of this daring show. Amazing! But not surprised it lasted only one season. These are some serious topics for its day.
I see Cliff Huxtable dad from the Cosby Show
I knew he looked familiar!
@@Mrblacklibraman They look nuthin alike other than the rippled lines on their foreheads & thick brow line.

@@Mrblacklibraman
That's Earle Hyman! The title is correct.
Ossie Davis? Looooool. Earle Hyman and Ossie Davis do not look alike at all. Not all black people look alike you know.
Ruby Dee was everything
...and a bag of chips.
Another good one! You never cease to amaze me! Thanks again!
Red lining all the way, and still going strong in these days.
Peace Raisin in The Sun

Ruby Dee and Cicely Tyson. WOW!!!!
...His wife taught him what he thought he already knew.
👍🏽💯🤔
Racism, hatred, &prejudging is going to happen no matter what. It really sickens me and should be really embarrassing that a person or group of people can actually act like that towards another human being just because of the color of their skin. Fast forward decades later, tanning beds are invented🤔
Yeah that's right. Makes you think. Why do they hate us so much. We don't hate them. And ..not for shits an giggles but if any color goes to another country they see no color they see AMERICAN ...NO MATTER WHAT COLOR AN THEY DONT LIKE US BECAUSE OF HOW WE ACT AN HAVE NO MORAL. NOT ALL OF US. BUT WHAT MEDIA TELLS...THE USA IS STRAIGHT UP BABYLON.
So true 👍 tanning beds....
IKR! Imagine that irony!
"Stop playing Larry Liberal and make up your mind!" I felt that!
Me too... Many of them still act friendly like that even today, including my neighbors. But, I just be kind back and go on with my day.
Very thought provoking episode. Ruby was so beautiful!
I love your RUclips channel! Found this yesterday. It’s nice to see movies like these showing us African Americans in the early 60s in serious roles. Cicely Tyson was extraordinary along with Ruby Dee James Earl Jones etc. Glad I found it.
Excellent drama, quite better than most of the recent movies about race relations.
Thanks for uploading this movie and even thou it's a movie. It gives a real perspective on how they felt about us during those times.
Can you imagine $23K for a home on Long Island? I live by James Baldwin’s philosophy that there is no black or white just human beings.
I know right 23k for a house is a dream, now in days on Long Island homes are 300k plus and tiny at that smh 🤦🏾♀️
There is nothing bad about seeing color or acknowledging an individual's race/color. Discriminating against one's race/color is wrong. The diversityy in race/color is a beautiful thng.
But you have to see color, otherwise you are not understanding that person's perspective, and there is nothing wrong with that. To me being color blind is being naive to race relations.
It’s what we now pay for just a car.
Ruby Dee has to be the most adorable lady.
And fine too.
@@abdusluqman5367wish she was my baby mama
I was 9 in 1963..never heard of this series..but enjoying watching if now..glad to see they were tackling this subject way back when..I do remember the marches in Selma and the police brutality..it was terrible to see that..😭💔
I wasn't around in 1963. I saw these movies because RUclips aired them. I heard about the marches in Selma and Montgomery. I saw the movie about Emmett Till. I was shocked to see how black people were treated in the 60s. In my country , black folks were allokkwed to live wherever they wanted to live.
Thank You reelblack, this was a gem, I wish I could see the whole movie, I remember seeing this but not sure if was a series, Blessings to you my Friend!
Wow, thanks for posting this 💞
I think I was still in 8th grade or commencing to High School but I remember this episode. I liked shows that were realistic like this. Cicely had this beautiful little Afro and a pretty face. Was that Shelley Winters? Great show. George C. Scott and Cicely were new to me.... and great
No I think that was the woman who played in A Summer Place. She looks a little like Shelley Winters.
@@moriahjacobs6131 could be 😊
Incredible find.
Thank you for posting this programs important social message and thank you for the other programming you present on your RUclips channel.
So glad to be able to view shows I did not even know existed. I bought the whole series and can't wait to watch every episode.
Watching this after Cicely Tyson’s passing. R.I.P🌹
"You are the child of the world!" 😭😹
What does that mean though 🤔
Thank you for sharing this post. It's so wonderful to see a plethora of great actors in this episode. Is it just me or does Ruby Dee look like Taraji P. Henson in this clip---I have always said that before.
Thank you 🙏🏽
Awesome Find 👍🏽 🎟 🎬🎥
Ruby Dee was SO BEAUTIFUL. ITS A TRIP that she doesn't get the same recognition for that like DORTHY DANDRIDGE. And I THINK SHE IS STILL ALIVE IN 2023.
Mr. Earle Hyman …. Such a kind and humble soul. He sat behind my sons and I on a long haul flight from Burbank, California to Newark , New Jersey. He connected to a flight to Norway and we connected to a flight to Chicago. ( I know we flew past Chicago to Newark , but flying from Burbank on standby will send you to Timbuktu and back) Anyway, Mr . Hyman was kidding around with us the entire flight until I really took a good look at him and I said to him “ you look so familiar. “ Then my youngest son said he’s the grandfather on the Cosby show. “ My sons had gotten over being star ⭐️ struck by then so they didn’t make a big deal. He spoke with us , told us about life in Norway and how much he enjoyed it. Bid us a nice goodbye after flight which normally when you talk with a stranger when flying, once you land we hardly ever say goodbye. May Mr. Earle Hyman Rest in Perfect Peace. Humility took him to the heights of his career and of course God and his talent.
I remember him from the Cosby show too.
I love the nuanced arguments. Intelligent points of view. Entirely lacking in today's world.
Powerful episode. Thanks Reelblack One!
I was born in NYC and never saw this series. I was being raised in a catholic home for girls in Peekskill N.Y. . The nuns never let us see those kind of T.V. shows. We watched stuff like the KIng and I, Mary Poppins, South Pacific and movies about Jesus and saints. When I came out of that home after 9 years I knew nothing about racism. They were all races of girls in that home. We knew no hate. My last year was when I started seeing a change in the type of girls that were coming into the home. They were much rougher. Most of us were abuse children. Then they started taking girls who committed small crimes and their parents couldn't take care of them. My auntie paid for us to go to that home. I was surprised when I came out of the home and saw real life. The nuns help me find a job and put me up in a YWCA. Back then they were hotels for catholic women from around the world going to colleges in NY. It was pretty cool for me. I was 16. Graduated early and working for Metropolitan Life Ins. Co. in the Pan Am Building. I think Sony has the sign up there now. I am grateful that I was a teen during the 60's. Not so rough for teens at least not for me. I didn't like city life. I was used to birds waking me up in the morning and peace and quiet. I had a lot to learn in such a short time. Three years later I was married.
Nice.
That’s interesting that Constance Ford was a model at one point in her life.
Thank you for introducing me to this very important show..
Such a good series wish it could have continued. The music is hip too. Thanx rb
Right pertinent in an argument about systemic racism. Another instance of how smart the 60's were.
Thanks
East side West Side. I remember it vaguely. Did not know it aired for one year. Well done show.
🗣🎤 Some of y'all in here calling names of folks that aren't in the movie 🤣 Ossie Davis isn't in the credits, beginning nor end.
That's mot ossie davis in this film. It's ruby dee and the guy who played bill cosbys dad in this picture.
@@cocobronze7587 Hi yes I know. He was highly respected & recognized in NYC. Mr Hyman lived on 43str near 10th Ave in the actor's building while filming in the NY vicinity. He & Mr Davis were both tall statuesque men however there was clearly no resemblance between these two gentlemen. Having met both its hilarious to compare them 🥰

Cicely Tyson ! Wow ! Need to see more roles with her. Enjoy her look and acting. I know I have seen her many times when I was young. Now , I guess IMDB will give me that list !
Everyone should see Cecily's acting at the end of the movie the River Niger. Amazing
This series was at least 50 years ahead of its time: a true societal landmark on so many levels.

This film is great,well done and great emotions
I remember seeing this episode as a pre-teen when it was on T.V. in first-run. I recalled that the young Black wife (Ruby Dee) liked Bach when asked about Louis Armstrong. The actress playing the role of Polly was Constance Ford, who played the tormented niece of her wealthy, inventor uncle in the Twilight Zone episode, "Uncle Simon".
She had tons of TV episodes on her resume
Never heard of this show. I was 10 years old . Great show, wish I had known about this sooner.
I remember this show. The one episode I remember was about a family living in the slums and the little girl was bitten by a rat that came into their bedroom.
It is on this site, just watched it.
