PBS also showed Benny Hill.

No way they would do that today.

I recall a few years ago discussing on another forum online about our local PBS station bringing back “Till Death Us Do Part” (the British inspiration for All In The Family). And I got a similar response in that there would be no way most TV stations (either nostalgia specialty or PBS) would ever touch a show like that because of too many sensitive persons around nowadays who would not like the greatly politically incorrect content of that show, lol.

I forgot about Benny Hill.

He was a great comic.

I used to get together with a good friend of mine to drink beer and watch Benny Hill.
