    The first program produced in this regard was The Today Show on NBC broadcast on January 14, 1952; the idea soon became popular and morning shows became a common feature on television channels around the world. Several concepts and innovations were introduced in the shows taking in to account the viewers with home improvement tips, interviews of celebrities from all walks of life and other culture oriented features appearing in the format.

    Morning shows were created keeping in to mind the viewership and the early part of the program emphasized on news in relation to people who were leaving for work with the latter part being more entertainment oriented. In the UK the first morning show that was launched was Breakfast Time broadcast by the BBC on January 17, 1983.
