Quote:I don't think any of today's TV heroes would qualify for the title by the standards of 60s TV.There is nothing about current TV that would conform to 60 TV. On I love lucy they could not even sleep in the same bed. No way would characters have even been eluded to having sex and not be married. The hero never kills the criminal. Cowboys where all good. The indians where always the bad guy. There was no such thing as interracial relationships. What was crazy was these attitudes where not indicative of the times. That is what I find great about current TV. People complain about the lack of morals on Grimm. Yet Grimm imitates the norm of a majority of society. We know these are norms based on voting practices that support a lot of the things we see. For me and a lot like me. there is not such thing as the good old days.
I say hurrah for the demise of the old hero stereo type.
