Despite an active-lifestyle movement among older citizens, Retirement Living Television is hoping that a few stop to turn on the television.

Featuring specifically filmed programming for people 55 and over, the Retirement Living Televisionis the latest attempt by Erickson Retirement Communities to reach the rapidly aging baby boomer generation. Teaming up with the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, Retirement Living Television uses a $1.3 million refurbished television studio on campus to film programming that is beamed to about 25 million homes five days a week.
