Been watching this old series on Crackle TV, over the internet. I haven’t watched in probably 50 years. No police killings, no sex, just fun. Nothing offensive here. Remember when?

Just shows how not all change is good.

If you can fly in & out, SCUBA dive, or drop in---
you don't need any more Police than one personal friend that is a Detective.
All good stuff
To bad we got smarter

I could do with a good marathon of Laurel and Hardy, and a mess of The Three Stooges about now. Actually, anytime these past few decades.
When friends and I get to talking about the lack of good, decent television shows these days, simply put...they don't make shows for us older folk. We're not in the targeted advertising age group.

Oh my, that 's a young Fred Gwynne in that picture. Always enjoyed him. He just passed away not too long ago. Lived down the road (so to speak) in Tawneytown, Maryland.
Yancy Derringer… had a fried named Yancy…
It was a very different and IMO much better country back then. Far less evil on display and pushing for more evil.
I'd be willing to bet that if you looked you could find the old shows on DVD. Where I live now it's like they never heard of Babes in Toyland and that was a classic pre-Christmas show when I was a child. So I took care of that for myself. I recently mentioned that to my brothers and we all did. Gotta love tech'.
Amazon just put out a movie about the I Love Lucy show. I didn’t think the movie was that great, but it did bring out how censored television was back then.
I Love Lucy, just a good tail.

It seems like starting in 2019 they haven't made a movie where they do not have at least one gay couple and an interracial couple. Even Disney is putting out garbage like this.
Oh, and BTW, nobody has mentioned Rin Tin Tin or Casey Jones.
Seems Hallmark movies went this route too. Shame ! They should at least bring back some of the old ones.
Gun Smoke, Combat (Vick morrow,Rick Jason) Rat patrol.
I never ran out and killed anybody, but really enjoyed days of playing in the dirt with my neighbor playing out these shows with Sticks as rifles and bushes or trees being the enemy. No prisoners that way. Lol

I started to notice that trend before that. What makes it worse is it usually doesn’t add anything. It was just stuck in the script to make a few people happy.
Rin Tin Tin was great. I was able to download a bunch from YouTube so my youngest son could enjoy them.
Greg, you just reminded me about Lassie and then Dragnet ! Oh crud, now they might change dragnet into drag queen and really screw up history of old tv shows.

The best comedy was delivered with no swearing by Red Skelton.
