 Some of us just have to face the fact that we have absolutely no taste when it comes to how we decorate our homes or businesses. Lucky for us over the past several years television has once again came to our rescue by supplying us with numerous home decorating shows.
If you are decoratively challenged, then you need to be watching these new shows. For many years, This Old House was one of the only shows that could teach you things that you needed to know about how to fix up your home as far as plumbing, adding on a room, or turning your garage into useable living space. This was great for these kinds of projects and it is still a much watched show even now.
Today we have HGTV, or more specifically, Home and Garden Television. The Do it Your Self Network is right up there in popularity too. It is amazing what you can learn about decorating on the cable and satellite channels. They show you how to paint, how to lay stone, how to remodel entire rooms, or an entire house.

 In the early television days the first situation comedies were family oriented shows like Father Knows Best, which aired in 1954 and Leave it to Beaver, which aired in 1957. Later on came My Three Sons, which aired in 1960 and ended in 1972. These were just a few of the first shows that had comedy plots, but often had a more sentimental touching side as well.
In 1971, All in the Family was aired for the first time on CBS. No one could ever forget the prejudicial and hilariously disgusting antics of Archie Bunker, played by Carroll O'Conner. His silly, but lovable wife Edith was forever being ridiculed by Archie. His daughter Gloria distressed him by marrying the meathead Michael, played by now famous director and producer, Rob Reiner.
Another great sit com that aired in 1972 and ran until 1983, lasting 11 years was M.A.S.H. It had hilarious situations and cast members like Alan Alda who played Hawkeye Pierce, and the memorable Klinger played by Jamie Farr. This army hospital series was the result of M.A.S.H. the movie.
