We note a range of seasonal holiday programming. The most common by far was Christmas. But we also see Fourth of July, Haloween, and Thanksgiving fitting in to the programing. This was true primarily with serial programming like sitcoms. We also see variety shows that were popular through the 1980s having specials especially Christmas. Programs like Perry Como, Bing Crosby, Dianna Shore, Andy Willians, and others commonly included children as Christmas is at its heart a family orinted holiday. And thy children were very commonly dressed in their best clothes for the program. Looking at the programs over time we see an interesting view of fashion changes over time. Of course the children we see dressed more fassionably than the children in the average family, but we see some of the fashion trends. At the time of cporse it was much more common to dress up for special events.
