Past and Present Shows

Like my first two blogs, I am showing you the difference between new shows and old shows. My first example is 'I Love Lucy' this show was around since the 1950's to 60's. It started out in black and white, till color television became popular. I love this sitcom, I watched this show for as long as I can remeber. On this show, there was nothing sexual, drugs, swearing, or anything like we have today. This show is very funny and clean, the shows we have today have dirty humor in them. Before there was color tv, they had black and white television, this is unheard of for our generation, most of us would think its boring, but most movies that are black and white, are interesting to me. I have seen plenty of black and white shows, such as 'Andy Griffth' 'I love Jeannie' and "Bewtiched' Now days shows like 'Family Guy' have sick but funny humor in it.

Now days most, not all tv shows are not so innocent. I choose 'Family Guy' because it was the only thing I could get, in good quality. This is so wrong on so many levels, but very funny. Meg is talking about having a brief job, on a sex phone line. When you see who she was talking to, it was very bad, she was talking to her father, but I don't either of them knew it. Back when 'I Love Lucy' was on air, if they did that, they would cancel the show. Incest is not a thing to take lightly back then, but its no big deal now days. Another thing, people didn't talk about sex phone lines in the 50' s, I don't think they had them back then. So as you can see, several things has changed since tv came along, I miss the old sitcoms, they were the best.



'Family Guy' is one of my favorite TV shows. I like that it makes refences throughout the whole show. In this clip, I found very funny, but if they showed this in the 50's or 60's it would be a scandel or an uproar, it wasn't clean or censored.
