Oh, and I'll toss "Hogan's Heroes" into the "could never be made today" race.
This kind of stuff drives me nuts. The truth is that
anything can be made and put on television today without a hitch.
The problem is that the puppeteers who produce so-called controversial shows (i.e. All In The Family)
are part of the same mob that dictates
through the same media which material is supposedly offensive versus what is acceptable.
The sheeple DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES care what the media mob determine what may or may not be offensive
until and only until that same media mob
decides to make certain material offensive and deems it so. That's when everyone says, "Well you couldn't show that on TV today."
Mark my words, it's nothing short of mind control. It's part of the plan to turn us all into cattle who aren't capable of thinking for ourselves or living to our own standards and expectations.
"Well this group says it's offensive so it must be so." Oh really? Did you
talk to that group, or did your university professor tell you so? Believe me, that professor is in on the grand scheme as well even though he may not even have the brains to realize it.
Yes please oh mighty media! Which of your constituents is sitting on a surplus of useless widgets in which foreign nation this week? Do you need to move them quickly? Well dumb me down some more so that I'll become an impressionable idiot who runs out the door to buy that very widget during your latest "flavor of the week" sale. I gotta have it!
Wake up people.
