The small screen has seen many shows deliver excellent content in terms of plots, actors, and overall production. Naturally, several such shows have stayed fresh in our minds even years or decades after their release. When we talk of shows like The Sopranos, Spartacus, Dragon Ball Z, The Simpsons, and Mind Your Language, everyone’s seen a few episodes.
Obviously, such timeless shows are not limited to a specific genre but more about a good plot and strong execution – after all, there’s nothing common between, say, the crime drama Dexter and the animated satirical sitcom The Simpsons.
The 70s was a turning point for television in terms of what could be shown and discussed on screen. Shows like Maude and All in the Family laid the foundation for future shows by including social commentary in what was otherwise purely entertainment. While 70s’ TV shows bravely introduced topics of immense relevance in real life that were shied away from on-screen, such as racism, abuse, and poverty, a lot of them did spin a new angle on age-old recipes for success, such as action and comedy. In this video, we’re going over 7 shows turning 50 in 2021, looking back at some of the most memorable shows that first aired in 1971.
