Roy was my two gun color movie hero. Unlike Gene, and Hopalong, I remember some of Roy's movies being in color, and I don't think I have seen all of them replayed on satellite tv.

Not being a child anymore, I'm not sure I can say who children today have for their heroes, but there are no saturday morning matinees at the theater featuring those who were our heroes. Today it is saturday morning cartoons.
Do any of them feature the triumph of good over evil?

Yes they do, but sadly, it's mostly about the triumph of good (enviromentalism) over evil (corporations).

I forced myself to watch a few minutes one morning in order to see the evil to which my grandchildren might be exposed.

As I recall it was Captain Planet (envirohero) punching out Mr. Industry for polluting the stream. Bad Mr. Industry. Good Captain Evironmentalwacko.

If only the kiddies could be exposed to the likes of Roy and Dale. Lucky us. Unlucky current and future generations.
