And those mountains around Dodge City have always intrigued me. I've been through Kansas a number of times, and for the life of me I've never been able to find any snow-capped mountains. I must not be looking hard enough. (snicker)
Didn’t someone famous say...’I’ve never had an orgasm I didn’t like’...or something like that?
Don’t forget Lovey aka Natalie Schaefer. Hubba hubba.
“Nothing new to see.”
Maybe for you. . .

It could have been worse. The Cartwrights were supposed to be a family of mean, spiteful, paranoid, troublemakers who killed anyone setting foot onto the Ponderosa. Ben had 3 sons by 3 wives because he was always getting thrown out of the cities he lived, and the bitterness and hate in him kept growing as his wives kept dying. That quickly changed when the writers realized it was hard to write episodes where the guest stars passing through the area got killed, maimed, or tortured by Ben and his antisocial sons.
Yes, and no matter the body count, at the end of every episode, the Cartwrights would have time for a joke and a big laugh by the assembled family.
Hoss: "Hey pa, that bad guys's head sure exploded like a ripe watermelon when I shot him with my Winchester."
Ben: "Yeah, but that watermelon was still not as big as your melon son."
Ha, ha, ha, ha.
The question on my mind is are there any Islamic women contestants? If not then the show lacks diversity and must not be watched.
A show lacking diversity is anathema.
I am an adjunct instructor at the local college.
I teach government.
Part of the curricula involves exploring ‘civil rights.’
I poll the students and ask what percentage of the population is likely homosexual.
Results vary but hold constant—they ALWAYS guess between 20-30%.
I also ask them to name a popular show where a homosexual is not present. . .a real head scratch-er.
Then I ask that when a homosexual is present in the show, identify the show where the homosexual is presented as something other than happy, quirky and funny, open-minded and so much superior than the White Male hetero. Another head scratch-er
Such is propaganda.
(I know, treading on thin ice with the administration. . .)
Oh, why is it popular TV shows always have lezbo’s and it seems ALL lezbo’s are drop-dead gorgeous and downright hot. . .NEVER presented as they usually found in the wild (mean, unhappy, nasty, male-in-drag dyke types).
Definitely Mary-Ann. . .if given a choice.
I have always said if the have a Survivor in real back country Alaska or Siberia then I might watch it.
That would be Woody Allen in “Manhattan.”
Just the program descriptions for MTV shows like Girl Code scare me far away from that channel.
Spot on
Of course, Gunsmoke, by being on tv so long, might have the highest death rate.
You also didn’t want to be a Cartwright WIFE. The carnage among the wives is astronomical!
Maybe for you. . .

Lol.

YOUR students are unusual in that they are attending college. Most people DON'T to college. So, right off the bat you have an "interested" group.
They might have been brainwashed but will figure it out when they get into the working world...OR if they simply GOOGLE the question: How many homosexuals in the world?
It's not a HUGE task, is it? They are ALL computer literate and all KNOW Google...so, if they are TRULY curious they will simply "Google" the answer: .5-1.5%.
Maybe your students don't really care. That's possible.

Lol.
They don't watch a lot of
Law & Order--normal, SVU or CE.
cooking shows
Property Brothers
baseball or football games
tennis
[If any of the athletes are homosexual, it's on WORLD NEWS.]

They scratch their heads because not every T.V. show does have a homosexual. I remember on Will & Grace, the side-kick was a MORON, nice, but dumb as a box of hair. He was neither happy nor sad, just abysmally self-centered and ego centric.

T.V. sure doesn't allow the following on the air, except as The Exception to show us how REALLY compassionate, understanding and cool the network moguls are.
-- OOOGLY people
-- mean a-holes
-- unhappy people
-- really OLD people
-- bitter middle-aged women
-- race baiters, from any the races
-- nasty, male-in-drag dyke types
The networks portray people in a way that THEY believe will sell the most toothpaste, cars, denture cream, fungus removal, hair growth and toilet paper.
I actually watched the Buying Naked show. It was very entertaining to see how they would cover the naughty bits from view using objects around the houses.
Originally I wanted to watch it because it takes place in Pasco County FL where I am from. I didn’t know they had so many nudist resorts near there.
I had deleted MTV from the lineup on the cable box just so I wouldn’t have to surf through it. When three of the grand kids came to live with us, the oldest wanted to know why we couldn’t get MTV. I shamelessly told her the TV was too old and would not pick it up. It worked until the next power outage, anyway.
I remember 30 years ago staying up until 3am and watching shows like My Little Margie
