SUMMARY:TV In The 1970s
DESCRIPTION:TV IN THE 1970s \nWhat was television like during the 1970s? \nIt was the decade of Roots and The Love Boat.  Silly television comedies were everywhere!  The 1970s was the decade of Laverne & Shirley\, The Fonz\, Mork and Mindy\, WKRP in Cincinnati\, Three’s Company\, The Brady Bunch\, and the Partridge Family. \nDramas became very formulaic and\, for the most part\, somewhat bland.  But Norman Lear created All in the Family\, a groundbreaking comedy that led to a national debate about racism\, conservatism\, homophobia\, abortion\, mental illness\, and almost every important social issue of the time.  And they did so in a way that was so funny that the show was the top-ranked show on television for a record five consecutive years.  As Archie Bunker became the voice of  Richard Nixon’s “Silent Majority\,” other topical comedies such as Chico and the Man\, The Jeffersons\, Sanford and Son\, Maude\, and Good Times began to change the face of what television situation comedies would look like. \nPerhaps no one changed the role of women on television more than Mary Tyler Moore.  Her program broke ground with a monumentally popular view of a single working woman in a professional career. \nFinally\, M*A*S*H   captivated America with his unique and unforgettable combination of drama\, comedy\, politics\, and personality set against the backdrop of the Korean War\, opening a discussion about what had happened in Vietnam. \nThis fast-moving multimedia presentation is more than nostalgic.  It’s also an insightful look at what we were watching and why we were watching it at that moment.  The 1970s were a unique decade\, and television reflected and shaped how we lived. \n
