Drama originated in ancient Greece and was popularized on radio in the 1920s and television in the 1950s. Originally television dramas followed a predictable three-act structure but later adopted season-long story arcs. Television began in Pakistan in 1964 with the first live transmission by state-run Pakistan Television. The quality of television programs is often judged based on elements like writing, vision, and expectations about society, though large audiences and viewership across age and social groups are also indicators within the television industry. Period dramas can be expensive to produce but traditionally adapt classic literature and attract families.
