I know and probably knew THAT fact long before you ever did, since, as has always been my wont, when I find an author whose works I enjoy reading, I then read EVERYTHING that person has written! And I began reading Orwell ( 1984), when I was all of 14.

Whatever you watch it sure keeps you frothing at the mouth with shouting anger and you make up stuff that isn’t in the posts.

I hope to see you on future threads when All In the Family is argued as a conservative show, that happens here pretty frequently.

Thank YOU!

And I agree!

But evidently, some posters here are blind to that fact; sadly.

Many episodes were good V evil/nasty V nice; but some taught that one should NOT be envious, the way divorce ruins children's lives, etc.!

Here's another PRO-CONSERVATIVE/PRO-CHRISTIAN episode for ya....it's called "THE HUNT"!

An old man dies and he walks down a road with his dog, at a gate is man whom he mistakes for Saint Peter, when he realizes that he is dead. He is about to go through the gate, with his trusty dog, but is told that NO DOGS are allowed in. So he says that that is NOT Heaven and walks on. He then comes to another gate, with another man standing there ( this time it IS Saint Peter ), who tells him that "of course dogs are allowed in Heaven" and that his wife will soon be there to be with him.

Is that "WOKE"/"LEFTY"/"anti-Christian" to YOU?

You are still shouting and angry, what was the Christian part, that God needs all of our old dogs and cats and hamsters, and lizards, and box turtles around to make heaven fulfill us once we leave the physical plane and our bodies and know him fully? How about ice cream and pizza?

The only one :frothing" and "making stuff up" is YOU!

Have there been threads about ALL IN THE FAMILY here?

If so, I have never nor shall I have any interest in them. It was a dumb show and I couldn't care less about what others have to say about it here.

But YOU have a rather large problem, in that you make claims/have certain opinions about TZ, programs on PBS, and me, which you are incapable of my refutation to tour posts demand. You never once give a pertinent example, and ONLY spout your worthless and unsubstantiated, ludicrous opinion/s.

“”””you make claims/have certain opinions about TZ, programs on PBS, and me””””

Tell me what TZ is and then quote me on the “claims” about TZ and PBS, and then about you.

You obviously NEVER have seen that episode/don't remember it you ever did, and have none the less drawn the opposite and wrong conclusion; yet again.

It is about GOD's LOVE and the Devil's hatred for all things good, kind, and normal.

Throughout the ( written ) history of mankind, all people have had their own ideas about life after death;. from NOTHING to all kinds of different things. In that TZ episode, it was all about what that old man's vision of the here after would be like, placed in the context of the world/life style that he was familiar with. But I guess that that concept is just too intellectual/superior to your thinking abilities, for you to be able to comprehend. Pity that......

Go read ALL of your posts to me, on this thread!

What a shame that you have no memory, none at all, vis-a-vis what you have recently written.

Your posts are getting so crazy.

Relax a little, what were the claims about PBS, can you quote them?
I guess TZ means Twilight Zone? I thought it might be one of those other foreign stations you watch, of course I have claims about the thread topic, that is why you are attacking me so much.

What are the claims about you other than the obvious shouting anger and increasing craziness?

Go look up and get someone to read your own posts to you; short term memory loss is such a terrible, thing to have; so do get some help.

Also, get some lessons on how to debate...you appear to be lacking even a smidge of ability to engage in such.

I can’t find them especially the PBS one about PBS programs.

Are you calling this nice sentence a “claim”? It wasn’t a claim but a reasonable supposition to make for someone who watches television and who claims to be a conservative.

“Remember that I liked the show, but I could also pick up on the subtle negatives of it, I bet that you watch shows like that today, shows that you like and enjoy but that you also pick up on some subtle liberalism that you wish didn’t creep in there but the good parts keep you watching.”

I've always enjoyed that show, never miss a TWILIGHT ZONE MARATHONH on the Sci-Fi channel, have they book all about Serling and every single original episode ( which lists when it aired, who wrote it, the full cast, and the full plot ), as well as a bio of Rod.

There are many episodes that I know, if not word for word, pretty close to it and can see them all, in my mind's eye, when I talk or think of them. No, not "obsessed"; just a BIG fan of the original series. :-)

I accept that you can watch all those TV shows including PBS and not find any hints of liberalism, you convinced me.

That doesn't cut it; you are implying that I am "blind" to what YOU imagine that YOU and ONLY you can see!

So DO tell me, exactly what, from the list of authors I posted earlier, which were made into BRIT series, contains even the whiff of "WOKE", lefty thought/plot device and/or words, starting with Winston Churchill's bio of his ancestors, the first Duke and Duchess of Marlborough...John and Sarah Churchill. And FYI...I own and have read that book by Winston. Have YOU read that book and/or watched that series: THE FIRST CHURCHILLS?

I accept what you claimed about you not seeing any liberalism in your TV shows and PBS, relax.
