A long time ago, inventors like John Logie Baird made the first TVs that actually worked. They used spinning parts to scan and send moving pictures — it was super basic, but it started everything. -
TVs got way cooler when they went all electronic, and people could finally watch shows at set times. The BBC even started doing regular broadcasts in 1936. -
After World War II, TVs started being made for everyone, so lots of families got one. This was also when the “Golden Age” of TV happened, with lots of popular shows and dramas. -
Then colour TVs came along, replacing the old black-and-white ones. Everything looked way more real and much cooler to watch. -
When cable and satellite TV showed up, people suddenly had tons more channels to pick from. Plus, the remote control became normal, so you could actually control what you watched without getting up. -
Later on, TVs went from analogue to digital, got way sharper with HD, and the screens got flat and sleek. It made watching stuff look way better and more high-tech. -
Now TVs can connect to the internet, run apps, stream shows, and even let you interact with stuff. Watching isn’t just about scheduled shows anymore — you can watch whatever you want whenever you want. -
These days, streaming services are everywhere, and people watch shows on phones, tablets, or computers. Old-school TV channels are still around, but lots of people don’t rely on them anymore.
