Good to see that somebody at the networks is admitting that they are actively involved in social engineering under the guise of entertainment.

Maybe they'll wise up and bring back Mayberry RFD and Petticoat Junction. :-)

And Dobie Gillis. I thought Bob Denver was hilarious as Maynard G. Krebs. Too bad he never got another gig...

Many MANY years ago in Chicago, a young cartoonist friend of mine recited to me for a good three minutes an entire episode of
Petticoat Junction, ending with “so then he took one last puff on his cigar and lovingly put it down on a nearby ledge”.
Then he paused and said “NOTHING HAPPENED IN THE ENTIRE SHOW”.I LOVED IT!” He was also around that time much enamored of a TV movie he’d just seen, called KILLDOZER, about a bulldozer that went around killing people, way before Steven King ever though of it.

There must be thousands of heartwarming incidents performed by our wonderful military for the people of Iraq and Afghanistan.

Enough to create several entertaining and inspiring TV series.
