I was watching the Dennis the Menace show from the early 60s on Prime and noticed that it was rated PG13. I was curious as to how this could possible be rated PG13 and it said alcohol use, language, and smoking. That isn’t as crazy as a modern day/gen z warning I saw for Leave it to Beaver that mentioned that “it had outdated norms and it shows all white people”. In the 50s, white people made up over 90 percent of the country so the Cleaver family “reflected the world around them”. Heck, even today a traditional white nuclear family is a much better reflection of an American family than what Hollywood reflects which is some lgbt heavy neighborhood in California or NY.

AI: Propaganda: Justine Bateman
During the Hollywood strike one woman claims to be a computer scientist and actress. She thinks Hollywood needs to outlaw AI or actors will be gone soon. So she supports the strike. She dislikes the term content

Here's another anti content.

This is her saying actors will have their faces rented for cheap to movies.

The early episodes of The Andy Griffith Show are the greatest. Barney Fife is my hero. What characters . . . The Darlings; Ernest T. Bass; the beautiful Ellie Walker, lady pharmacist; Otis the funny town drunk; dithering, motherly Aunt Bee, and Opie when he was a cute little carrot-top.
I wish I could live in Mayberry. Maybe Mt Airy, NC is close.
I want to attend a Mayberry Days festival at least. Yea, once Barney left it wasn’t as good. At least he made some appearances. I think Goober with Gomer are great but Gomer went off to do Gomer Pyle USMC. If you haven’t seen it, the episode where Goober visits Gomer at his base is great. I did like Mayberry RFD as well
