"...at least until it is banned for not being “inclusive” enough."

Not long ago, I would have said you were nuts for writing that. But now, it's a distinct possibility. Here's where we are in March 2019:

Michigan’s lesbian AG investigating Catholic media org as part of ‘hate group’ crackdown

Michigan’s lesbian attorney general and the state’s Department of Civil Rights director are investigating organizations the left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) has deemed “hate groups.” One such group in their state is Catholic news service Church Militant, which reports on clerical sexual misdeeds and advocates adherence to the teachings of the Catholic Church.

The SPLC has labeled Church Militant “anti-LGBT.” The law center lumps pro-life, pro-marriage, and Christian organizations in with neo-Nazis and the KKK as “hate groups.” Its “hate map” inspired a man to attempt a shooting rampage at the Family Research Council’s headquarters in 2012, the first incident of armed domestic terrorism in Washington, D.C.

Attorney General Dana Nessel and Department of Civil Rights Director Agustin V. Arbulu say they are responding to the SPLC’s annual “hate map” report. They claim that the SPLC has documented an increase of “active extremist and hate organizations in Michigan.”

Well, they are “special” victims.

/s

I’m with you. Every show now has homo couples, and 90%+ of couples shown in commercials are interracial. I’m down to TCM and Hallmark Mystery channel. Some FOX Business news, but that’s it. They dump Trish Regan or Lou Dobbs and it’s over for them, too.

At some point we will all stop watching live TV...as well as any other TV. As well as anything.

I had forgotten that.

Gross.

At least The Waltons kept that perversion out of the show. If it were on TV now?

Queer Grandpa would be a focal point.

What in the holy h_ll is the point/purpose of trash like this on TV?????

You may remember that in the 1950’s there was a so-called witch hunt by certain members of the US Congress to root out Communist infiltration of the Entertainment Industry.

That witch hunt failed.

Much of what you see on television and in movies is a result of that failure.

The Communist in Hollywood and New York have set out to destroy Western Christian Culture with the entertainment industry being their primary tool. They have had a great deal of success.

What you saw on L&O is the on-going effort to destroy Western Civilization.

I cut the last tether to network TV about two years ago, when Big Bang Theory jumped the shark. It simply stopped being amusing.

TV is now almost exclusively for TCM, Turner Classic Movies, like Casablanca, The Mark of Zorro, Laurel and Hardy, the Buster Crabb Flash Gordon serials. They stand up after 80 years. Otherwise...

It's everywhere anymore even though, as stated, the make up of the population is less than (being generous) 5%. Can't say how many series we start only to dump the entire thing fairly quickly. Sad dam state of affairs. 👭👬😡

you would think that 30% of the couples buying houses were gay

I cut out "The Walking Dead" for much the same reason.

Who survives a Zombie Apocalypse?

Mostly a buncha sensible, handy, and world-wise, gun-toting country boys and girls, perhaps with military training?

Or Steely-eyed lesbian-type females, who can make the most heavily armed, strongest group of men back down with just a cold stare because that totally happens all the time in real life?

Or gay/metrosexual urban millenials, whose idea of "survival" comes from the "Outdoors" section of "Dolce and Gabbana"?

Surprisingly, if you selected "B" or "C", you'd be right. Too bad, the show started out pretty well and just de-volved.

The thing I always see on HGTV is some spoiled rotten bitchy Millenial woman who is actually fortunate enough to be able to afford a $750,000 house at age 30, and yet expresses dissatisfaction with EVERYTHING.

My wife watches The Hallmark Channel. Or as I call it - The Old White Womans Network.

Nothing but good clean entertainment there. No queer stuff,
no blended families, no raw on screen sex. Just normal television.

Which leads me to wonder why the militant homos have not attacked this channel in an angry hissy fit attempt to close it down?

Ralph Waite was a big commie/lib, too.

Up until the mid Curtis era, it was.

Makes sense to me. The zombies are probably scared to death of those lesbians.

They have. Last Christmas they started a campaign to pressure Hallmark to start featuring gay couples in their Christmas movies. Sooner or later they'll cave.

My DVD collection is Me-TV, Antenna, Comet, and TCM type stuff.

Eventually, those channels will go dark as more of the AOC types become more prevalent.

TV sets have on/off switches. They are best in the off position.

We took HGTV off of our list of “favorite” channels a few years ago. First, there were just too many homosexual couples either house hunting, remodeling, or something else. Second, they had signed two brothers for a new show, but cut their contract when one — maybe both — made a statement against same-sex marriage. The show never ran even one episode.

I ended my subscription to “Country Home” magazine about 10 years ago for the same reason.

We had watched a few episodes of a new sit-com, “The Cool Kids”, because there were a few older actors we liked from years ago — Vicki Lawrence, Martin Mull, etc. One freakish little guy is homosexual, and each week it became more and more disgusting. We nixed that from our lineup and no longer watch.

How people can watch that stuff and not be physically repulsed is beyond me.

Now we watch “The Kids Are Alright”, “Last Man Standing”, “Lone Ranger” reruns, and many shows on Investigation Discovery.

Nah, they're looking for Brains. Not many to be found among any of the surviving characters.

The Zombies aren't much of a threat, more of a nuisance, now. Problems are with the bad guys, who always get dragged into the plot somehow.

"Let's see. We can stay here where it's usually pretty safe, farm stuff so we've got things to eat, trade between a couple of other mostly-friendly settlements ..... or we can walk around kicking hornet's nests and see who we can tick off. Daryl, git your crossbow, there's gonna be a war!!"

approximately, your mileage may vary. Of course, I've only watched a couple of episodes in the past couple years. Mrs WBill still follows it though. Sounds like it's going from "meh" to "worse".
