Rowdee loves us, Fred. I am praying she scolds you. You need her advise. Gambling on horse racing and TLBSHOW. She is going to charge into your fantasies of wealth.
Here is where TV changed and helped turn many Americans into degenerates. This show said Divorce is ok to our detriment. It brainwashed many. Some think this is a good values show. It isn't.
The eldest son screwed the mom off stage and the dad was some sort of drug user and homo - is that correct?
The youngest blonde girl had some sort of scandal if I recall correctly.
The Little Rascals were my faves as a kid. But I'm showing my age.
What is interesting, O'Reilly did a segment on the old 50s, 60s and 70s "family" TV shows a few months ago. He had some conservative media research dude come on and show how all the shows we thought were very American and very conservative actually had a Hollywood producer, director or writer put some underhanded progressive undertow in the plots. You got the Brady Bunch right, it told America being divorced was ok. It also highlighted Alice the maid who always seemed to be interested in finally finding Mr. Right but prefers to live in the basement running her own life. An underhanded way of promoting feminism. The offset "lifestyles" never made it on the show but was a sign of the times for Hollywood, which is usually 10 years or so ahead in the sin and depravity dept. The other one O'Reilly showcased was "Happy Days." On the surface it was "Leave it to Beaver" with a mid 50s golden age American family. One father, one mother and the kids belonged to both! But on the underside the show went to great lengths to show that the Cunninghams were square and obsolete in a rapidly modern era. The father was always bested by Fonzi, the James Dean knock off. The mother and children listened more to Fonzi with his broken home background than they did to dear ol hard working dad. Then in later episodes the dad softens to the first signs of the counterculture. Then comes Mork from Ork (soon to have his own spinoff) in a Halloween special on Happy Days with his "nanu nanu" and gasp his rainbow suspenders. What we all thought was wholesome TV took a turn for the obsurd.
So even in the Golden Age of American TV, Hollywood was in secretly injecting their venom behind the scenes and in certain characters, which gave birth to the radical leftist directors and producers like Ron Howard. Don't get me started on "All in the Family" and how on "Andy Griffith" Aunt "B" seemed to not like men.

Interesting take on the Brady Bunch...AND Happy Days. In 'Happy Days', the Fonz seemed to join the establishment later on AS the dad softened his position to the counter-culture.
I never did get Mork and Mindy (were they actually integrated on a Happy days show?? Just like Laverne and Shirley?) Lol - how about Lenny and Squiggy?
Aunt Bea was just a bit over-cautious about men, IMO. And the pickings seemed a bit slim in Mayberry - what, between Floyd the Barber, Otis, Gomer, Goober, and Barney.
I will admit to liking Mayberry RFD, 'Petticoat Junction', the 'Beverly Hilbillies', and Green Acres. It was said that the new liberal CBS honchos didn't like that rural innocence and simple, clean humor...despite competitive ratings and unloaded ALL of them at nearly the same time. Replaced it of course with "edgy" social-message stuff like 'All in the Family,' The Jeffersons', 'Maude', Mary Tyler Moore, etc.

Yes that WAS a radical (pun fully intended) change of programming. Don't forget "Alice" as well. All those shows attacked the straight conservative father figure head of family. All in the Family basically told Americans, that the WWII generation of Archie is dead and we are to embrace "Meathead" because he is the now and future. Not much balance on that show. The show got great ratings because men like my Dad, in or rapidly approaching middle age, loved Archie and agreed with most of what Archie said. They actually saw Meathead as the idiot guy who they would not let get on the porch to take a daughter on a date. As a matter of fact, around the time of All in the Family a long haired hippy with beard tried "calling on" my sister and he got as far as the porch steps before the "ol" man put an end to his "court'in." The Jeffersons probably gave rise to the Jeremiah Wright faction of Black America. Maude gave rise to the feminist that belittled the husband and was a closet lesbian. Mary Tyler Moore was the mold for future TV SITCOM and TV "Drama" by casting the men to be weak and curiously ambivalent to women. So yeah Hollywood did a job on a few generations but those 70s shows really showed their hand.
