Not a chance. First of all, that society didn’t really exist. Television shows are not and never have been an accurate depiction of society. More importantly, though, the low skill jobs that paid relatively well back then are gone forever, leaving behind the societal ills we see today.

Lastly, such a society isn’t really even desirable. I wouldn’t want to turn back to an integrated, sexually repressed society.

1) I don't remember 1960, but I remember the early 70s. Our society was not really that far off from those TV shows. Any fiction will be a little enhanced, but America used to be more wholesome for most people.

2) A strong national economy can be recreated. It will be different, but we can have a country with decent jobs for people. It's not gone forever.

3) Only Leftists think that the 1950s were sexually repressed. Feminists and Homosexuals have told lies about our society prior to the wonderful 1960s sexual revolution. We've gone downhill through that change, we have not magically improved and become "unrepressed".

4) You misuse the word "integrated". What you meant was "segregated". And I swear, EVERY TIME someone like me says "The 1950s were pretty good" someone like you shows up and basically implies that a call for the return of Jim Crow laws has been issued by some racist fool like me. You need to grow up. A society with less government is NOT a society of slavery and/or Jim Crow. Find a new theme.

“Television shows are not and never have been an accurate depiction of society”

Today, the opposite is true more so than at any time.

Sexual "repression" as you call it, is the basis of civilization. See->

It's not the society that existed, it was the shared aspirations.
