The TV shows of the 1970s trotted out colorful, enigmatic characters who pushed the limits of what was acceptable. They challenged previously accepted norms, cultural barriers, and gender roles. They took us along on the ride of a lifetime through tragedy, triumph, and a lot of laughs. While those days are long gone, the reruns continue to remind us not only of how important those characters are to television history but also how much their antics entertained viewers back then as well as today.

Which 70s TV show was the most popular?
Those of us old enough to remember them — or those who watch reruns — have favorite shows from the 1970s, but one of the most popular shows was M*A*S*H, starring Alan Alda, Loretta Swit, and Wayne Rogers. Airing on CBS, the show was adapted from a feature film and premiered on September 17, 1972.
The series follows the medical doctors, nurses, and support staff of the 4077th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital during the Korean War. The show was a situation comedy, but it sometimes dips into darker topics. M*A*S*H ran until 1983 and covered nearly every possible angle.
