All My Favorite Television Shows: Influence of Crime, Sex and Entertainment on TV
So you may be wondering why the title of this article is "All My Favorite Television Shows".
Well I have a reason, believe it or not.
A few years ago, we stopped watching television. There are many reason we quit watching television. From the programs that were on to the commercials.
I really wish there were programs on that I could feel comfortable watching. But right now as far as I know there are not. I do not like to watch shows that are full of cursing, the occult or violence. To me that shows that the person who wrote the program is not very creative. At least in ways that are productive to living a good life.
Many people can come up with television shows or ideas for shows, that have a lot of nudity, (or practical nudity), cursing and violence. Sometimes I wonder if the increase in crime is because people are wanting to act out what they see on television. Or maybe television is giving people ideas of how to commit more and more different types of violent crimes.
The kind of shows I like are the old fashioned shows. Shows like The Walton's, The Brady Bunch, Leave it to Beaver, Father Knows Best, Andy Griffin shows. These shows to me had character, and almost always seemed to have a moral lesson intertwined.
These were good family shows that for the most part you did not have to sit with remote in hand to mute out offensive comments, or language. Now it is easier to just not even have a television in the house. Because even the commercials have much to be desired.
