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.
Mike Brady (Robert Reed), widowed architect with sons Greg (Barry Williams), Peter (Christopher Knight) and Bobby (Mike Lookinland), marries Carol Ann Martin (née Tyler) (Florence Henderson), whose daughters are Marcia (Maureen McCormick), Jan (Eve Plumb) and Cindy (Susan Olsen).
The wife and daughters take the Brady surname. Producer Schwartz wanted Carol to have been a divorcée but the network objected to this.
A compromise was reached whereby no mention was made of the circumstances in which Carol's first marriage ended.
Maybe you could try doing some actual research before getting on your high-horse and pontificating to the rest of us.

Sorry, I didn't mean to be so blunt about it, but there are plenty of shows that have contributed to the downfall of American society that are more subversive than Brady Bunch.
All in The Family, Family Guy, Married With Children, Roseanne are some of the worst of the lot.
(All in The Family, Family Guy, Married With Children)
All three were GREAT shows.
'All in the Family' wuz great - until it began getting too PC...Just like MASH.
IMO the Family Guy is too vulgar and subversive. That's just me.
Married with Children had its funny/sarcastic moments...but again, I think overall it's glorification of classlessness, irreverence for shock-value sake, and vulgarity attributed to the devolution and acceptance of disrespect for young AND old people alike - and our culture in general.
'Roseanne' may have been one of THE worst shows ever. It represented the promotion and agenda of the WORST possible traits of our culture - it was vulgar, low-rent, white-trash, perverted and irreverent of virtue.
IMO, there were several things which contributed to the current downward spiral we're facing.
First and foremost was when the S/C (government) said it was OK for the nurturers of society to kill their young. That put -0- value on life. Period.
Second was LBJs "Great Society"...the one that really put blacks on the plantation and pulled in a great number of whites, too. They encouraged women with the idea they didn't need a husband, that children didn't need fathers. That goverment would provide housing, food, medical, and other necessary things.
This extended to young girls in high school--the massive outbreak of out of wedlock births can be attributed here, I believe, when you consider the girls always had the 'government will take care of me' option if the guy they gave into didn't really 'love' them. They could play the role of head of house/home maker...be their own boss.
That, and them not getting the love and attention at home--which brings up @3.
Third was all levels of governement needing more and more $$$ to feed their bigtime programs, which meant that mommies had to go to work to help make ends meet--especially when taxation was competing with the family's deisre to own more and more goodies, to keep up with the Jones, so to speak.
#2 and #3 brought about the idea of 'entitlement'
Fourth, and on down the line would come the performing arts, fine arts, and other entertainment. All wanting to be on the cutting edge were actually trying to be a bit more outrageous/anything goes than the next movie, program, literary work, or 'work' of art.
All of these play to the baser nature of mankind. And it has been quite effective in reducing the morals and values of this once great nation to what we see today....whether it is in your face homosexuals, or teenagers on a school bus, or wall street crooks, the Kevorkians, the Susan Smiths, the Jerry Sanduskys, child murderers--what else can you expect from a society who diesn't have a problem killing the most innocent beings?
rowdee performed a good post but it doesn't get into "root cause" of the historical facts.
WW2 destroyed America's financial and social institutions. While America was a GREAT nation for a bit of time, the rest of the world rose up to compete with our failures. America became a wasteland of toxicity not because of Stone's dismay about the Brady Bunch but BECAUSE AMERICA TURNED ON THE TELEVISION SET to begin with.
The rest is history. We are a failed nation by own successes.

How far back did you want him to go? How about 1913??
Rowdee NAILED EXACTLY when the wheels fell off the nation: 1965.

WWII ushered in the Shadow Governance of a New World Order.
ANY international "competition" was financed BY American taxpayer while American technical innovations were bought off or sabotaged by corporations AND agents of Shadow Goob elites.
America became a wasteland because it's Moral Foundation was undermined by Leftists, Commies, and Elites who realized ONLY THEN could America be defeated by the collusive efforts *from within*
This includes THE "ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY, THE MEDIA, THE ACADEME, and the PSYCHIATRIC INDUSTRY.
IMO, we found out via WWII that women could work outside the home where their traditional role had them as the base of society. For a single woman that wouldn't present much of a problem. But for a wife and mother, there had to be compromises.
I haven't looked at employment figures between WWII and Korea, but I would venture to say it wasn't chalk full of women.
But with WWII over, men began using the GI bill for educating themselves for better jobs meaning a step up in society. More money meant spending more for the house with the white picket fence, a 2-car garage, yada yada.
This, in turn, saw the working tradesmen class attempting to keep up while at about the same time government at all levels were spending like drunken sailors who just got a months pay and a dime store in which to spend it all.
Taxation began taking a chunk out of family income making it harder and harder to raise a family in the style most people wanted on a single wage earners pay. This required Dad to take a second job or for the woman to take on a job.
Taking on a job was not just an 8 - 5 proposition for a woman. Besides that, she also cooked, cleaned, grocery shopped, clothing shopped, bathed kids, did whatever ironing the family needed. Not to mention that she was still to be the sex goddess for her husband.
She was too frazzled and worn out to be chief disciplinarian and educator--enter the TELEVISION--the grand old babysitter! Cartoons with some character, animal or human, beating up on some other character.
Not so many years later, along came Pacman and Videomania! Parents had no clue; kids loved this blood and gore simulation crap.
Along with abortion came easy to get divorces, wimmens libs.
And all the while, government minions are scurriously working to get God out of the center of society. After all, we can't have any morals or ethics to interfere with what Satan's minions want.
WW2 destroyed America's financial and social institutions.
No,it didn't. In fact,it CREATED America as an industrial giant. We got rich supplying war supplies to warring nations early,and then got even richer supplying the materials to rebuild a world bombed into rubble.
Only a fool could think those conditions could or would exist forever,and they didn't. Eventually,thanks to our own loans and special import deals,our former enemies rebuilt their homes and industry,and started selling their newly manufactured goods to us. Our politicians allowed them special deals on import fees to help them get on their feet,and after all this we act surprised when American industry starts to slow down and we blame Eisenhower for the recession of 58.
And proving we don't learn,we went through this again when all our industries were moved offshore due to over-regulation,taxes,and unions. Yeah,the stocks went up and idiots were smiling ear to ear as they said "This will last forever! Money for nothing,and your chicks for free!". More recently these same idiots were weeping into their wheeties and sobbing about how their lives are over because their stocks crashed.
And oddly enough it never seems to occur to these people that money is NEVER "lost" on Wall Street. If somebody loses it,you can be sure somebody else just "found" it. People like Soros,who manipulate the markets to cause the prices to rise and fall so they can make a profit on both ends. Wasn't it Soros that bankrupted the Bank of England and made a couple of Billion dollars doing it?
As those great American prophets Sonny and Cher used to sing,...."And the beat goes on,and the beat goes on."
