Episode 8 is the first in a two-part look at the decade of the 1980s, as we march through TV and Media changes, from the innocence of the 50s to the total depravity on the screen today. The 80s was a turbulent time when most Baby Boomers came of age. Television during this time put females in non-traditional occupations, glorified rebellious behavior, and attempted to make dysfunctional families appear to be the norm. It was also a time of very shallow and meaningless plots for many of the shows. In Episode 9, "The Snowball Grows (Part 2)" we will pull all the loose ends together and add Cable and Satellite Television into the mix. In the 80s the snowball really picks us speed on its way to growing into the disaster we call entertainment today.
