B&W TV (1951) - first on the block! Color (1966).

The first kin on the block to watch new episodes of "I Love Lucy" :)
By the way, when watching US 50s movies and TV shows, it seems to me that American english back then had a strikingly more constipated intonation and accent. Didi people actually talk like that back then?

Yep, people really did talk like that back then. That's coz Americans were all white, anglo-saxon protestants back then, too. It wasn't so, then my teevee wouldn't tell me so. ;)
