The Sixties is a documentary miniseries which premiered on CNN on May 29, 2014. Produced by Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman's studio Playtone, the 10-part series chronicled events and popular culture of the United States during the 1960s.

The premiere of The Sixties was a ratings success for CNN; it was seen by 1.39 million total viewers (finishing in between Fox News Channel and MSNBC in total viewership), and beating its rivals in key demographic audience share. In November 2014, CNN announced that Playtone would produce a sequel, The Seventies, to premiere in 2015. It was later followed up by The Eighties in 2016.
