One of my cable channels is running old TV westerns like Laramie, The Virginian, The Rifleman, and Wagon Train. I am actually enjoying these shows. Obviously the culture was very different back then. The messaging is so different. The men are all rugged, courageous, masculine, etc. The women are all, well, feminine I guess is the best way to describe them. The kids are taught old morality about how to respect and treat people. It is almost corny. But I grew up with these shows and never gave their messaging a second thought. Honestly, I find it all refreshing compared to what we see today. Good triumphing over evil never gets old.
