A good role model for sure. It makes me sad that there are none (or extremely few) nowadays. Look at any modern television series and all you will see is SJW bullshit

Because for a bit there, we reached a point where most people were becoming happier and had fewer and fewer troubles in life. People started to get along more.

The dragon started to get hungry.

My thoughts as well. People were getting along too well and you can't have that because they may spot the real problems, such as the Federal Reserve.

Last Man Standing is still great. Tim Allen is doing what he can, without getting ambushed and killed by the seething left.

Him and Uncle Phil were great role models for TV.

Wouldn't work today. Can't have successful black men who are 'part of the system' (cop, judge) who are also devoted family men as role models. It's literally everything the left hates.

Saw an interview with the dad from Good Times. (John Amos? Memory fuzzy)

He kept having issues with JJ getting all the screen time with the goofy look and Dy-no-mite!

He Kept trying to push for positive stories with the daughter working hard to get educated and the talented artist son.

They killed the dad off. (Damn, Damn, DAMN!)

Wonder why??

Edit: Just remembered Terry Crews on Everbody Hates Chris. Played a real dad, busting his ass working to care for his family.

I think Cosby was taken out for speaking out on black men and boys, pull up pants and speak better. The original was Cliff was going to be a plumber. Coz said why can’t the family be professionals??

Yep, great examples. I also liked the Bernie Mac show. He also played a great, no nonsense dad.

Sinbad did a show like that too.
