SUMMARY:TV In The 1990s
DESCRIPTION:The 1990s were a transformative decade in American TV.. \nSimply\, the sheer number of programs on TV in the 1990s grew exponentially. This was due to the arrival of cable TV networks\, like HBO\, Cinemax\, Showtime\, and other channels offering specialized programming aimed directly at their target audience. \nWhile the broadcast networks gave us great fare like Homicide\, Life On The Streets\, Seinfeld\, The Simpsons\, NYPD Blue\, and  Northern Exposure\, we began to see competitors like the WB\, the Food Network\, and the National Geographic Network begin to expand the range of television programming. With more and better programs available\, plus the ability to tape programs\, it completely shifted the nature of the viewing experience! As the decade progressed\, it was clear that “The Second Golden Age of TV” was about to begin! Don’t miss this exciting multimedia presentation \n
