The 1950s saw the spread of television in many homes in America.

With it, came the popularization of TV shows like sitcoms, comedies and game shows, with Westerns gaining popularity in later years. As TV programming expanded, by the end of the decade most American families had their very own television set in their living room. This exciting decade certainly paved the way for the future of network television.
