Golden Age of Television Lives on via TVS Drama.Com

TVS Drama.Com is the home to six decades of dramatic television, from soap operas to prime time dramas, from syndicated half hours to tghe earliest attempts at 'reality' TV. Perhaps the most honored of the dramatic shows is what has come to be known as the 'Golden Age of Television'. The technical limitations on early TV - the hot lights, the bulky cameras - made the stationary venues for stage plays and vaudeville the norm of early TV. Since the movie industry shunned the TV business in its first decade, it became a proving ground for those coming up in the business aspiring to be actors, actresses, directors, and producers. For one thing TV was insatiable in its need for programming. For another, it's live treatment gave rise to a generation of talented stars both in front of and behind the camera. Many of these shows are right here, right bow on TVS Drama. More are being added every week. What a chance to go back and visit a simpler time when the soon to be legends were learning their craft and amassing a following though this miracle known as television.
