The Rise of Color TV: How It Became the Standard in the 1970s
While the first-ever color TV broadcast aired in 1951, color television didn’t truly take off until the early 1970s. For years, high costs and limited programming kept most households watching in black and white. But as prices dropped and networks embraced color, the transition became inevitable.
By 1972, color TVs were outselling black-and-white models, marking a turning point in television history. Stations across the world adopted clever ways to switch from black and white to color, making the moment feel special for viewers. In Norway, one station made the transition a true event, using a creative broadcast to signal the beginning of the color TV era.
This shift wasn’t just about technology—it was a cultural milestone. Color television transformed the way audiences experienced entertainment, news, and live events, cementing itself as the standard for generations to come.
