    OMG, I was in high school and studying for my midterms when this originally aired. My cool Dad said, “Take a little break and watch this with me.” He made me a cup of hot chocolate with marshmallows and we laughed our asses off! I have never seen my father laugh so hard in my entire life. Ah, the good old days, I miss you Dad.

      Asleep for just a little while longer. Soon those asleep in death will be resurrected back to life, here on Earth in perfect conditions. This is the reason why Jehovah God, sent his son Jesus to earth, to take back what our first parents Adam and Eve loss for us the gift of Life. I can't wait to see my loved ones again. It's a promise from Jehovah God. Revelation 21:3,4 gives us hope. To learn more about the resurrection promise, please visit www.jw.org it's bible based and very easy to use and understand. Thanx for sharing ♡♡

      Good for you. My adoptive mother who raised me was 45 years old when I was born. Consequently, I was exposed to a multi-generational gamut of talent from the early 1900s basically and on through the rest of the century. My absolutely favorite decades for literature, music, TV and film are the 60s, 70s, and some of the 80s. Most of the stuff made since the turn of the recent century leaves me cold, although there are rare exceptions. I just don't like the gratuitous profanity and overall video game CGI. I see a decline of the imagination and originality that concerns me for the future of our culture, not to mention a loss of entertainment.

    This is what kept us home on Saturday nights. Then we looked forward to Monday so we could recall the fun in school. Carol Burnett has stated that these performances wouldn't be done today because it would be too expensive. Imagine just the costumes, wigs, shoes for the entire cast.The feather boas and trimmings. They all needed salaries including the the staff of designer and the seamsters. This they did each week for each TV season. Wow.

      It's called "Talent"...it transcends time. I remember actually watching this when it first aired; the only thing that comes close and is relatively recent is the Tracy Ullman Show, but Carol was first, and I think, best. If you want to see more actual sketch comedy, try "Went With The Wind", with the infamous curtain rod dress...

    • @korbell1089

      @@johnwclick I also would watch that show every week and my favorite was always the gone with the wind spoof, to this day whenever I see her walking down the stairs with that curtain rod I lose it! Another skit for the younger generation to check out is when she plays Queen Elizabeth with Harvey Korman as Prince Phillips and a young Maggie Smith as Tim Conway's "girlfriend"

      Their show was theater-quality every week. Great casting, writing, lots of money to do it right. Thank goodness for networks like MeTV, youtube and other classic TV networks who have introduced new generations of people to what we loved when we were growing up. I didn't fully appreciate just how satirical Green Acres was until I got older.

      The 70s had Nixon, Pol Pot, Idi Amin, oil shortages, oil shortages, inflation, recession, stagflation, the Iranian Hostage crisis (as well as MANY other high profile acts of terrorism, over 100 plane hijackings in that decade), MUCH higher levels of crime & violence, major air pollution, a truly mind boggling number of serial killers, the Cold War & living under the threat of nuclear annihilation, and shocking levels of child abuse (and molestion), domestic violence, and rape…you may wanna reassess that “truly innocent” comment.
