119. "Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House" (1948)
TV is about selling products people don't need to people who can't afford them.

This sentiment's been around for quite a while:

Joan Blandings: Miss Stellwagon says advertising makes people who can't afford it, buy things they don't want, with money they haven't got.

IMDB: Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House

...and it's still true 63 years later!
