Talk:Essay:Greatest Conservative TV Shows
Six Million Dollar Man
The technology could have been developed by private companies under contract with the government.--Andy Schlafly 18:18, 25 May 2011 (EDT)
- It "could've" been a lot of things, and I would gladly concede the point given any evidence to back up such an assertion. But as I recall, the protagonist was an astronaut who was "put back together" by the OSI (a fictional government agency) and worked in the public service thereafter. LloydR 18:29, 25 May 2011 (EDT)
Star Trek
The Federation was an extremely socialist government, to the point where the very concept of money was downright offensive to humans. Furthermore, the only "capitalist" race in Star Trek--the Ferengi--started off as villains in the early TNG episodes before becoming comic relief pn DS9. --[[User:AdamDiscordia|Yours in Christ, Adam Discordia]] 00:08, 26 May 2011 (EDT)
- Sounds like Star Trek should be downgraded to "Debatable Whether Conservative." Please feel free to move it ... but "Trekies" may not like that!--Andy Schlafly 00:26, 26 May 2011 (EDT)
The Simpsons?
This may be a long shot but could the Simpsons fit under the Debatable category? Although it does occasionally send liberal messages, it embraces very conservative family values. I'm just not sure whether or not its liberal messages exclude it entirely from being included here. --JimMac 09:31, 26 May 2011 (EDT)
- Personally, I don't any value -- conservative or otherwise -- in the Simpsons. I think it presents Hollywood's negative caricature of the family, as several other sitcoms have. But I welcome comments by others about this show, and thanks for the suggestion.--Andy Schlafly 10:23, 26 May 2011 (EDT)
