ScottFromWyoming wrote:"They go on the air soon!" And look at those prices... what's that even translate to in today's dollars? You could get the latest and greatest big screen TV and not pay that much. Well let's assume 1950: $199 1950 dollars = $1,970.50 today.
$359 1950 dollars = $3,554.82 today.
Considering you can get a nice low end set for $100 and the high end 'realistic' consumer models are nearing $10K, it looks like the range is just broader. Cheap is cheaper and expensive really is much more so (you can spend over $100K for the big 4K curved screen whackjob models if you want to don't have family or common sense).
The average family income in 1950 was $3200. Wow.

He made some films and was on a couple of popular BBC shows (" Hustle" was pretty good). He shows up on episodes of "Law & Order" sometimes.
