My wife and I discovered Amazon Prime late last year. On it we discovered the entire Petticoat junction series for free. Every four episodes we watch is a new movie we didn’t watch.

Weird thing is that I noticed that time is not very kind to a lot of those older shows, but this one is a gem. Maybe we have low expectations, but we find we really enjoy watching it.

I’m sure there are others.

Me too. I stream almost everything I watch on TV anymore. I stream ALL entertainment and usually opt for the old stuff. I've watched all of the Beverly Hillbilly's and others. My favorite was re-watching all The old Rockford Files.

I also watch some great British series on Netflix. Foyle's War and Midsommer Murders among them. There's also a Canadian series I like a lot, Heartland. Pretty girls in cowboy hats riding horses with the Canadian Rockies in the background. What's not to like?

It’s all like mind candy, but at least the older mind candy didn’t also include poison. I noticed Hollywood sneaking in subliminal leftism and anti-Americanism, anti-Christian, etc long before the Sixties went radical. The only thing I’ll watch Glenn Ford in anymore is “Gilda”, and that movie was his breakout. It’s really Rita Hayworth’s show. Even in the silent era there were movies portraying Christians as bigots. Lillian Gish, a favorite actress of mine (and a true conservative) was the star of one. But at least they balanced it with positive portrayals of Christians.

Unfortunately, you have to use Amazon.

Pay $5/month to join Amazon Prime’s Acorn for basically every Brit/Aussie, Canadian and New Zealand tv series ever made.

Then, spend another $5/month for basically every CBS tv show/series ever made via CBS Access.

Next donate $5/month to PBS and get shows that you didn’t know about or basically all that has been available.

Then, say goodbye to the American tv series that hate you and insult, you, your family and America from ABC, NBC and FOX and ???.

When I was quite young, I liked "I Love Lucy" and "The Dick Van Dyke Show," but don't care for either one now. Generally speaking, "shows about show business" only irritate me these days.

I had never seen these early Beverly Hillbilles episodes.
