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.
