1960s

Get ready for jokes about beatniks, the Etsel, and running off to join the French Foreign Legion. The '60s were a time of transition for sitcoms as family dynamics shifted and young people began to find their voices and speak out. Wholesome happy family shows were replaced by hip teen comedies, wacky workplace hijinks, and a whole slew of kooky fantasy/sci-fi infused oddities.
