Some of these older shows had hilarious music references, too. One of my favorites - George and Weezie were going to a costume party, Weezie was dressed as Cleopatra. Florence kept asking her who she was going as, and Weezie kept trying to get her to guess - “Anthony and...” Florence jumpepd up and yelled “The Imperials” and started singing Tears On My Pillow.

“Coming to America” with Eddie Murphy was pretty funny, too. The over-the-top portrayal of an African King and his palace was hilarious.

I actually stopped watching the First 48 because most all the victims and perps were black. It got old.

I always felt bad for the little ghetto kids. Still innocent and could be raised right but unfortunately they were destined to turn out like their parents. Where are the "black leaders" on this???? Worried about white folks I guess.

Family Feud with Steve Harvey? It’s pretty much guaranteed to have at least one black family. Like Harvey a lot.

I to watch shows with all normal people, shows that extol American greatness. That’s why I’ve been watching more and more movies from the 30s to the 60s.

My switch to tv shows that depict only clean, gay-free, trans-free, non-marxist, respectful, non-racist shows that respect human nature and reality.

Amen. The tv is off a lot these days. We do enjoy "Young Sheldon" but definitely not "Modern Family". To think at one time you could watch HGTV (which I call HomoGayTV) and the Foodnetwork without constantly being assaulted with loud and proud LGBTs.

So, by your own admission, fictional characters are more important to you than the actual human beings in your life...

You got much bigger problems to deal with, that you don’t even realize.

Another adult ruined by critical theory and not taught how to critically think...

A shame.

Don’t cha know, Meghan is considered white whereas Obama, who has about the same percent of blackness is considered black. Crazy.

The old shows, Good Times and The Jeffersons were pretty good too.

Yeah, they were great.(/s) Of course every white adult male on either show was portrayed as either a heavy, a bigot or a fool.

Mr. McDowell (played by John Amos) was a latter-day George Jefferson.
