Arguably the prototype for reality television, Ricky Nelson and his parents, Ozzie and Harriet Nelson, spent the years of Ricky's youth on a TV show closely based on their real lives and personalities. Showbiz appealed to young Ricky, and he embarked upon a career as a crooner and pop culture icon, which continued until his untimely death in a 1985 plane crash. This release includes a full-length PS TV documentary which features interviews with Ricky's children--Gunnar, Matthew, Tracy, and Sam--as well as 21 performances of some of his biggest hits.
