the twonky (1953)

"A twonky is something that you do not know what it is."
Carolyn West (Janet Warren) has to visit her sister, and gets a new TV set installed to keep her husband, college professor Kerry (Hans Conried), company whilst she is away. He immediately notices that the set is alive (well he is a college professor)! Especially when is proves intent on regulating his daily life.
A cautionary tale about how television can (and was) taking over people's lives, in the form of an interesting and quirky comedy.
