I grew up with Leave it to Beaver and My Three Sons, Ozzie and Harriet and The Donna Reed Show. I thought those were pretty stupid even when I was 8. >
>Rumor has it that there's a lost episode of Leave it to Beaver that never got played on TV. Supposedly, in the episode, Ward comes home for a nooner with his wife June, but discovers a goodbye letter where June ran off with Lumpy Rutherford's dad....in a rage, Ward goes out to the garage and finds Wally and Eddie Haskell in the car (no further explanation). At this point, Ward goes insane, runs out to the backyard to scream, at which point little Theodore runs out of the toolshed dressed up like a little girl, as he finally works up the courage to tell his father he prefers to wear girls' clothes.

Actually, I think they aired that episode last year on FX but nobody noticed.

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
