Under the circumstances I probably agree with you. (Haven't seen the show so I can't say for sure.)

Personally the music that makes me the most nostalgic is the stuff I listened to as a pre-teen. I don't have nearly as much nostalgia for the stuff I listened too in my actual teens. However, my preteen/very-early-teens era was 1998–2001, a time when hanging out at the mall and blowing your allowance on CDs was pretty standard tween behavior. I don't imagine music was nearly as accessible to a tween in the early-mid 50s.

And if the show was specifically depicting songs from the early 50's as being songs this character danced to at social events five-plus years later, then I agree that they probably could've picked better songs. I mean, it's entirely reasonable to assume that not all of the music played at these social events would've been brand new. But if you're telling a story you really want your pop-cultural references to be as smooth as possible, and not trigger a mental math session for your audience.
