As you can see, both of my last threads were about site traffic and both had to do with the thread that came right before them. That thread is called "Laverne and Shirley". As time would go by, the number of views of that thread would increase. First it was sixty-five and it then it was sixty-nine. I did the best job that I could to commemorate these events by writing about things that were significant of those numbers. Now that thread has seventy-one views. I have decided to commemorate this event by writing about the fact that, in 1971, "All in the Family" made its debut. Are any of you guys fans of this series? I thought it was great! In my opinion, it was because of how groundbreaking the things that were dealt with on show were that the road got paved for a whole new generation of controversial shows. "Caroline in the City" was, by all means one of these show! It dealt with sex, religion and even circumcision! I think that we have the bravery of the producers of shows like "All in the Family" to thank for the for dareringness of shows in the eighties, nineties and today. Any thoughts anyone?

Yeah, Caroline in the City dealt with them without going overboard too.

Well, except for the episode about nose picking. They made that seem more like a crime, and handed the circumcision a lot funnier.
