Tosha Tawney: Sorry don't really know anything but must surmize by the following article that Aussie entertainment 1950's and prior was radio productions and live preformances, burlesque halls and the like. Try looking into radio for this time period. http://www.cultureandrecreation.gov.au/articles/po...Popular Aust! ralian television'Good evening and welcome to television.'Bruce Gyngell, Sydney, 16 September 1956.These were the first words spoken on Australian television. Since then, Australian television has grown to include: five national free-to-air stations; regional stations; community stations; and countless cable stations. Television - both watching and producing - is a part of Australian culture. Through television, we have been able to witness some of the most memorable and important national and international events of the past 50 years - history in the making.

Two years later, television broadcasts first began in America, followed by Britain in 1936. As television transmissions were suspended during the Second World War, it! was not until the late 1940s that steps were made to bring te! levision to Australia.In 1955, the first Australian television licences were issued in Sydney and Melbourne. In July of the following year, TCN9 Sydney (Channel 9) and HSV7 (Channel 7) Melbourne began test transmissions. The government-owned Australian Broadcasting Commission (ABC) also expanded its radio broadcasting activities to include television broadcasting in Sydney and Melbourne in late 1956.The 1956 Melbourne Olympic Games was broadcast as a test transmission by all three television stations operating in Melbourne at the time. In 1959, television was introduced to Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia, with Tasmania following in 1960 and the Australian Capital Territory in 1962. Television was not introduced to the Northern Territory until 1971.During the early days of Australian television, most of the programming consisted of established radio shows, such as Bob Dyer's Pick-a-box, and were simply a broadcast of the radio transmission. Most television ! hosts of this time, such as Brian Henderson and Graham Kennedy, also came from radio. By the end of 1956, it is estimated that only 1% of Sydney residents and 5% of Melbourne residents owned a television set, which cost about six to ten weeks pay for the average worker of the time.

As television became more popular and affordable, broadcasters looked to America and, to a lesser degree, Britain for programs. Local content was mostly limited to chat and variety shows, news and current affairs.In the mid-1960s, a third commercial station - Channel 0 (now Channel 10) - began broadcasting and Australian audiences began to demand more Australian content. Australian dramas became very popular, although audiences were still watching many American programs as well.Australian television became much more exciting with the introduction of colour television in 1975. The government at the time also provi! ded generous subsidies for the production of local television, which me! ant that Australians were producing more television than ever before. Australian programs shown on commercial television reached a peak in the 1980s. Australian television also went global in the 1980s, with many local shows finding overseas audiences. At the same time, the launch of the Special Broadcasting Service (SBS) on October 24 (United Nations Day) 1980, brought a range of foreign-language programs to Australia.The last 20 years have seen huge changes in our viewing habits, and the introduction of cable and satellite television (Pay TV) in 1992 has expanded our viewing choices. Reality TV - programs that show real people in unscripted, 'real' situations - first came to Australian television as the 1992 program Sylvania Waters. They are now one of the most popular genres among Australian audiences. Television is now regularly listed as the number one leisure activity of Australians. Digital Television transmission started in Australia on 1 January 2001. In 2004, more! than 99% of Australian households owned at least one television set and 23% of households subscribed to Pay TV.Decade by decade - popular Australian television 1950sTCN9 launches Brian Henderson's Bandstand, a variety music program which lasts for 14 years.
