QUOTES:

We cannot imagine the world without television nowadays. Despite the internet slowly taking over, television is still the leading media. 

The first commercial on television was broadcasted on July 1, 1941 in New York. The commercial for Bulova watches aired before as baseball game and the company paid just $9 for the ad. The first car commercial was for Chevrolet, and it aired on June 9, 1946

MTV, one of the most famous channels went on air on August 1, 1981. The channel went on air with the words “Ladies and gentlemen, rock and roll”. Fittingly, the first video broadcast by the music network was “Video Killed the Radio Star”


The Simpsons is the longest-tenured animated television series. The Simpsons first started airing in 1989, and in 2018 the show will air its 30th season. Dan Castellaneta is the voice of Homer Simpson since the first episode, and Julie Kavner is Marge Simpson since episode one as well.
