I mean, do you really think the average American would have been scandalized over the sight of a pregnant woman on television .. at the height of the Baby Boom (1950s, as in "I Love Lucy") when pregnant women were everywhere and pretty much de rigeur?

There’s a saying that Hollywood isn’t where trends are made, it’s where they go to die and that has never been more true. They just wait for something to catch fire on it’s own and then ape it as much as they can until they run it into the fucking ground and the public loses interest.
