And they have Beaver on now. There's always a lesson....and they make it very clear.
Another thing they make clear in all these shows is that "wisdom comes with age"...providing you're a good person to start with.
TV is such a cesspool nowadays.
Not all the old shows taught life lessons, perhaps, but at least they weren’t obscene. They weren’t full of sex jokes or feature the obligatory homosexual characters.
If it wasn’t for the western channel(Encore), TV Land and TCMs old movies..we wouldn’t watch tv.
I love Rifleman too. We watch that Sat or Sun mornings for a few hours.
