Abstract

The article discusses the evolution of television programming in parallel with the baby boomer generation. The argument is made that TV served to bond the boomers and, beyond entertainment, influenced their social perceptions, inculcated a sense of irony, and, for a while, provided shows with thinly veiled social and political commentary before abandoning it.
