If you are a Baby Boomer like me this DVD will take you back to the Golden Age of Television where we spent out childhood and teen years. This is Boomer TV nostalgia at its best. Expertly produced by PBS this DVD has the history of the development of four TV genres, late night shows, sitcoms, game shows, and variety shows from their infancy in the early 50s thru their evolution into the early 70s. This DVD features clips from many of the shows and commentary from some of the personalities who were featured in them. If you are a Boob Tube Boomer you will not be disappointed.
Nice to see the actors and shows of the past
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
If you were unlucky enough to have been born in the last twenty years - buy this DVD to see what good TV programming was really like! Hundreds (maybe thousands) of quick clips and running comentary anout the "golden days" of TV will make you yearn for the stars, the fun, the creativity of television in the 50's and 60's. I saw it when it ran on PBS and I had to own it. First rate stuff! - Sincerely, Tommy Moore
I am going to appear to be a bit harsh in my criticism, but since I lived through the early days of TV, I was expecting a bit more from this series. Not that I didn't learn some interesting points, but not enough to keep my interest for very long. You should judge for yourselves, especially if you get a good deal on the product like I did. TOO BAD !!!
Great summary of 50s and 60s TV. Memories for those that lived it, learning for others of how TV was.
