Between the nineteenth century and the mid-twentieth century television transformed from an idea to an institution. In Gender and Early Television, Sarah Arnold traces women's relationship to the new medium of television across this period in the UK and USA. She argues that women played a crucial role in its development both as producers and as audiences long before the 'golden age' of television in the 1950s. Beginning with the emergence of media entertainment in the mid-nineteenth century and culminating in the rise of the post-war television industries, Arnold claims that, all along the way, women had a stake in television. As keen consumers of media, women also helped promote television to the public by performing as 'television girls'. Women worked as directors, producers, technical crew and announcers. It seemed that television was open to women. However, as Arnold shows, the increasing professionalisation of television resulted in the segregation of roles. Production became the sphere of men and consumption the sphere of women. While this binary has largely informed women's role in television, through her analysis, Arnold argues that it has not always been the case.

From TV trays to entertainment centres and console couches, American families have built their homes around a flickering screen for more than 50 years. The embodiment of a nation's dreams, desires, and needs, the television shaped the direction of American family life and culture upon its arrival in the living room decades ago. TV Wonderland looks at the unique history of the television through the lens of advertising - the campaigns, slogans, and sales pitches that sold the TV generation on the power of technology. As TV technology improved, advertisers employed glowing descriptors tempting buyers to the latest and greatest TVs on the market. The centrepiece of the home, the television united families as Mom. Dad, kids (and sometimes the neighbours) gathered together to watch their favourite programs. It entertained, it educated, it celebrated the holidays! No wonder the television has become a permanent part of family tradition.
