There are no TV shows from the 1920s. "The Untouchables" and "The Roaring Twenties" were set in that time period, but TV didn't come into American homes until the Fifties though they were available much earlier. I suppose that first the county had to recuperate from World War II then have the economy recover in order to bring such a luxury home. We were the second home in our itty-bitty town to have one, not long after my maternal grandparents bought one~b&w of course. Programming wasn't that great at first, so those early TV sets wouldn't have been receiving much.
Here are some songs from the 1920s, but there are far more I'm sure:

There wasn't any TV in the 20s.
TV did not come officially on line until 1946 or so, so you would be hard pressed to come up with any shows
RADIO is what you need to ask about. But go here for help
