We used to watch it with the parents. It was a family show. The family gathered around to watch it. I'm an Aussie, but it was as much family viewing for us as it was for you guys in America.
Hard to believe it was ultimately a Disney product, but still.
Everyone is so divided these days. We talk about the 60s being this giant manufactured schism between generations, which it was.
But the internet age is what really destroyed the family. Not necessarily due to the internet, but it definitely had an effect.
The 90s were the last bastion of the old world.
Where family was celebrated, and encouraged, and even when there were problems they were resolved.
Mum, dad, kids, neighbour, suburbia.
Everything is so fractured and depressing now.
What's the last "show" you watched as a family?
EDIT: This post made me all nostalgic so I went and watched an episode of Home Improvement with my dad as we had dinner.
Feeling a little weepy for the old days.
