Why did TV usage skyrocket after World War 2?
During WWII, most people had radios. They listened to news, variety shows, etc., usually in the evenings after supper and chores were finished. The programming was also limited, especially in rural areas. Television was a new household phenomenon AFTER WWII; TVs didn't exist. Even in the 1950s and 1960s, not all homes owned television sets. Many people then had transitor radios, small enough to carry in a pocket and reliable for news and entertainment. So, it's not that TV usage went UP after WWII, but that more people after the 1950s and 1960s bought televisions. Many people who didn't own TVs would stop in front of store windows to "watch TV" for a few minutes. It was a twist on "window shopping" we do today.
