I don't know what the first show on television was but I think the first ones were right after World War II and mostly broadcast just in New York City. I think I once read something about even earlier shows that were on closed circuit TV so they weren't broadcast to the public or something like that. |

That's a really complicated question because there were experimental shows that no one ever saw. There were shows that lasted one episode when there were less than a dozen TV sets. And then there were the first more widely seen shows that only lasted a week or a month.
Check out this What was the first show on TV post in my Blog section for more detailed information. |
