Edison Studios in New Jersey released the silent serial "What Happened To Mary" on 26 July 1912; it is considered to be
the first movie serial. The heyday of the serial was in the 1930s and 1940s; free broadcast television in the 1950s
replaced the Saturday matinee venue for serials. The 'cliffhanger' story is now a solid part
of broadcast and podcast and cable product.
