Summary
Features: A popular NYC attraction featuring one of the largest collections of classic TV shows, radio programs and television ads, the Paley Media Center - formerly the Museum of Television and Radio - is the perfect rainy day attraction in New York.

Why We Go: The Museum of Telivision and Radio at the Paley Media Center is more of an archive than a New York museum. While you won't find exhibits or old artifacts at the New York Museum of Broadcasting, you will find one of the largest media collections in the world.
- Classic TV Shows: The NYC Museum of Television at the Paley Center archives feature the best episodes of classic TV shows like The Simpsons, the Wonder Years, Happy Days and more.
- Three Ways to Enjoy: The New York Broadcasting Museum has three ways to enjoy their archive collection. The first in their booths, where you're allowed to pick out two TV shows to watch. The second is their Radio Room, and the third are the theater rooms, where the staff has picked out classics for audiences to enjoy together.
- All Day Pass: Visitors are given an all day pass to the Paley Center NYC Museum of Television, so guests can go out for lunch and then come back for more fun.
