To disagree is to hate. Simple as that.

Too bad a show such as All In The Family couldn’t be produced today. Loved Archie, Edith, Gloria, The Meathead (Mike) and their neighbors the Jeffersons. Shame that All in the Family and the Jeffersons lost both the main stars. They are surely missed.

I just watch TV shows on DVDs starring dead people. I watched a modern TV show and thought I was getting demonic messages, but it just turned out to be commercials…

I watch it all the time where I live; it’s called “ME TV”. Only old shows are shown like, The Patty Duke Show, Mr. Ed, Hazel ….. Great to see something wholesome; better than the junk that is showing on today’s regular programs.

Yes there is a lot of bad TV these days, but you don’t have to watch it. You have more choices these days. There were a few good shows in the 70s like The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Taxi, WKRP in Cincinnati, The Bob Newhart Show (My favorite), and a few more.-You can now choose the programs that suit your tastes. You can choose to watch Duck Dynasty, Honey Boo Boo, etc., or you can choose Mad Men, Breaking Bad (Best series ever) etc. -And, if you are still stuck in the past, you can choose to watch those old shows.

I’ll take the shows from the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s over the ones on tv now. Too bad I can’t see those anymore, so I get them on DVD when I can.
