The fabulous 1950's are considered to be the golden age of television as 'watching TV' became a new form of entertainment. As news and other broadcasts transitioned from radio to this new medium during the '50s, many were watching TV for the very first time. However, as TV programming expanded, by the end of the decade most American families had their very own television set in their living room. Sitcoms and comedies were among the best with shows like I Love Lucy, The Honeymooners and I Married Joan earning high ratings. Later in the decade, Westerns became the most popular shows as folks were watching series like Rawhide, Bonanza and The Lone Ranger. This exciting decade certainly paved the way for the future of network television.
