The 3 most important shows ever created are...drum roll please...


...60 minutes, Saturday Night Live, and The Tonight Show. These shows are important because they give updated information about events.
60 minutes is an educational show, which covers fascinating news. The show gives its audience an inside look on breaking news stories. Investigative reporting is what the show is known mainly for. People are able to hear the news and the backround information behind the news. The concept of who, what, when, where, and why are used when reporting. Controversial subjects are reported on. It's important to know the details of a news story because it enables the audience to form their own ideas about the news. It teaches its audience to question any underlying information given. Without investigative reporting, audiences are forced to believe news that may or may not be true.
Saturday Night Live and The Tonight Show are important because they keep up with current events and politics. The shows are important because they bring lightheartedness and lend laughter to current events and politics. Often times, the shows even question the authority of the government. Saturday Night Live has given parody and sattire to important subjects, such as the presidential race and the Martha Stewart scandal.
Important guests, such as politicians in the current news, are always a part of the shows. On The Tonight Show, guests are given a chance to give their side of the story when being interviewed.
All the shows I've mentioned are excellent sources for information and entertainment together as one.
