TV was key to the world baby boomers were born into: a newly modernized world whose every problem (with the possible exception of the Cold War) seemed to promise an available solution.

TV chronicled this bracing wave of wonder and potential, and built upon it as an essential part of what distinguished boomers: They were pampered and privileged and ushered toward a sure-to-be-glorious future.
