Just a minor historical note. Robert is too young, of course, to know about
these earlier versions of phil. and pop culture, but I'm sure the 45+ crowd on
the List will remember the following. Try to think back to them ol' days and
see if you can identify the philosophical issues raised within the following
programmes. Or not.
Ed Sullivan and Philosophy
The Munsters and Philosophy
Leave it to Beaver and Philosophy
Father Knows Best and Philosophy
Gilligan's Island and Philosophy
Danger Man and Philosophy
Bonanza and Philosophy
The Dick Van Dyke Show and Philosophy
The Andy Griffith Show and Philosophy
The Jack Benny Show and Philosophy
Peter Gunn and Philosophy
Romper Room and Philosophy
The Friendly Giant and Philosophy
Bewitched and Philosophy
Walter O.
