The Twentieth Century was a documentary television program hosted by Walter Cronkite and sponsored by the Prudential Insurance Company that ran on the CBS network from October 20, 1957 until January 4, 1970. The opening and closing theme music was written by composer George Antheil. The program presented filmed reports on news and cultural events that were important for the development of the 20th century. The show did not just present the events, but also interpreted them. Such subjects as World War I and major assassinations were presented in context. On January 20, 1967, the show, sponsored by Union Carbide ("The Discovery Company"), was renamed The 21st Century. The show's focus changed to the future and to what humankind could look forward to. The 21st Century ran for three seasons and its final broadcast was on January 4, 1970.
