Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

What is even happening?

I want something with no violence, no profanity, and no overt sexual situations. I think some good stories can be told without any of those. But I want it to be smart and interesting, and actual good story, as opposed to barely tolerable.

I didn't see Phantom Menace or the Clone thing, but is it any less of the above than the first three Stars Wars films that were released--originally? I thought it just sucked. I didn't think it was less violent/crude.

I'm not even thinking kids shows. I don't want a JH show. I'm thinking Waltons, Little House, Happy Days, Cosby--those kind of shows, you could watch with your kid, and possibly enjoy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Elmo has totally ruined Sesame Street.

Except for kids, apparently.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Elmo is a punk and Henson is spinning in his grave.

Oh, I added Fraggle Rock up there. Its yet another transition.

I'm thinking Waltons, Little House, Happy Days, Cosby--

I liked Happy Days, but the rest of those tended to put me to sleep.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Cosby, especially the early seasons, was Fun-nee.

Okay, I liked early-seasons Cosby too. But Waltons and Little House are the two biggest examples of boring TV I remember from my childhood.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I still crack up thinking about the one where they set up a fake "real world" for Theo. Little Rudy!!
