Then you were a kid that other kids probably made fun of. It looks as not much has changed for you in the last 40 years.
That's largely a problem with kids today. They're so catered to in even their TV viewing. We didn't have many kids' shows when I was young. You had to watch whatever was on one of the 13 channels. Often times, it was not material that would be viewed as suitable for kids these days. But it's just the opposite. We grew up and matured much faster in those days because we watched that kind of stuff. Like everyone else, we used to rent VHS tapes growing up. I remember when the movie Romancing The Stone came out on video and my family watched it together. I was 9 or 10 years old. There's nothing really inappropriate in that movie outside of one very innocent sex scene. But it has some adult content though. It's not geared toward children. And we're better off having grown up watching that stuff versus "made for children" TV.
As for the Jeffersons, I was a loyal follower of the show. Didn't miss an episode. Of course anyone that watched knew that Tom Willis was white and Helen was black. I think the point that
@uncfootball- was making was that the interracial marriage on the show was nothing but a small sidebar to the show - certainly nothing to focus on. That's all. I'm not sure why you're picking a hole in his comment and trying to make it more than it is.
