When Television Brought Us Together by David Hofstede
Celebrating the Shows and the Values That Shaped America's First TV Viewing Generations
Why do millions of people love classic television shows? Why do they still watch them every day and collect them on DVD? Why does the MeTV network, with its 24/7 schedule of television series from the 1950s-1980s, attract more viewers than CNN and 80 other cable outlets? One reason, certainly, is that many Americans have become disenchanted with the current TV landscape. When Television Brought Us Together - based on the popular blog Comfort TV by TV historian David Hofstede, celebrates the era in television that came of age with the Baby Boomer generation, and how it can still inspire viewers to emulate the ideals and ethics it portrays. When Television Brought Us Together is releasing in both print and electronic versions on November 27, 2020 via Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Waterstones, and other retailers worldwide. |
