Watching "ABC Family" earlier today with the kids. The show was about cheerleaders and there was this exchange between 2 teen boys:
Boy 1: "Did you get some ass? Boy 2: "Ass?" Boy 1: "You know, like in a porn movie. Did you get some ass?"
Disney is now Gayland.
Gayland thinks the standards are those of "Sex in the City."
When they were bought by Disney/ABC. It was labeled as, “Family Channel... Another Kind of Family”
What show was this. Seems important to the story.
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of general interest.
To be quite honest, when I was a teenager, way back in the 50s, some of my friends talked like that. Or worse. But we didn’t talk like that in front of the girls or the grownups.
I never heard a girl swear or used bad language. They may have when they were among themselves, but never in my presence. That didn’t come in until the late 60s, that I know of.
My kids don’t watch anything labeled “family” or “kids”. Usually some of the worst stuff is contained within. We stick to dvds of the classic Muppets show, and Pixar movies. Sadly, that’s about it now.
Looked at the online listings-It was called Bring It On: All or Nothing.
ABC Family has several shows that I find appalling — Greek, Secret Life of the American Teenager, and some others (featuring teens who seem to have no parental influence). Even though I do not watch them, I catch snippets from their commericals that run on other shows.
And then there is that other show, Glee, that is just horrid. My daughter is a choral director, teaching children from k-12 in both public and Catholic schools. Her students watch that dreck and expect “real choir” to be run like that.
I always read that the actor who portrayed Eddie Haskell grew up to be a California HIghway Patrolman.
Contrary to the urban legend, Ken Osmond did not grow up to become porn star John Holmes, rock star Alice Cooper or die in the Vietnam War.[1] After his child acting career, Osmond served 18 years as an officer with the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), joining in 1970.[2] During his time on the force, he worked in vice, narcotics and as a motorcycle officer. He grew a mustache to help secure his anonymity. He was placed on disability and eventually retired after getting hit with three bullets[citation needed] while in a foot chase with a suspected car thief. He was saved by his bulletproof vest and belt buckle. He still earns a medical disability pension from the LAPD.
He eventually returned to acting with appearances on Happy Days and the TV movie High School USA. Osmond starred in the role in the Still the Beaver situation comedy and the 1997 film Leave It to Beaver. In that film, Osmond played Eddie Haskell, Sr., and Adam Zolotin, a younger actor, played Eddie Haskell, Jr. In the new “Leave It to Beaver” Osmond played Eddie Haskell Sr while his sons Freddie and Edward Jr. (were played by Osmond’s real-life sons, Eric and Christian, respectively).
Osmond makes personal appearances at film festivals, collectors’ shows and nostalgia conventions. He has been married to wife Sandy since 1970. Since his retirement, Osmond handles rental properties in the Los Angeles area.

Read an interview with him, and he said that sometimes suspects would ask to have their picture taken with him, and would tell him they were going to brag to their friends that they’d been arrested by Eddie Haskell.
