Since then, TV has shown "Lucy," "Ed Sullivan," "Seinfeld," and Big Bird. We’ve  followed "All in the Family," and "Dream of Jeannie." We’ve been to "Dallas," "Downton Abbey," the kingdoms of the "Game of Thrones," and gone where no man (or woman) has gone before. We’ve seen triumphs, tragedies, and elections; news, entertainment, and controversy. 

 Dick Tracy’s wrist, two-way radio is now far outpaced by wrist-TVs, smartphones, tablets, laptops, and computers. We watch on giant stadium screens and binge on almost-as-large flat screens at home. We surf in the backyard, the beach or the park. Shows play in cars, boats,  airplanes, and even the International Space Station.

 What will the next years bring?
