In the decades following WW2, a new breed of media made its way into the average American's home via the technology of television. The sheer quantity of modern day programming was reduced down to a handful of options, yet the viewers of yesteryear were left with basically the same content: A sitcom, a quiz show, some cartoons and a news reel.
