Black & White TV

Remember the whole family in one room watching TV shows. There were only about 5 channels to choose from and everyone was satisfied.....

Television- changed peoples lives around the world as they were used to being entertained by radio voice only. Sound with a black and white picture made less for our imaginations to wander and made it easier to limit the minds that watched.

There was only one TV in each home with at most 5 channels of programs to watch. This appliance was shared by all family members. Everyone had to talk and agree on what show the majority wanted to watch and that would be the choice. If you didn't like it, you could leave the room or sit quietly for the next show to come on.
