On cause/effect: I always think of the much-cited study from the early 80s that showed that kids who watched MASH scored higher on tests than kids who watched The Dukes of Hazzard.

Obviously, the shows made the kids smart or dumb! It couldn’t be that smart kids like smart shows and dumb kids like dumb shows. Similarly with violent games, angry/despairing music, etc.

I weep for you and your world, where MAS*H is considered a smart show.

But your world can’t be all bad, because the cross-over idea was fzcking brilliant. I think I saw the episode where Boss Hogg wanted to Roscoe to expropriate the still/Uncle Jesse’s “special” tobacky stash/passel o’ hot Duke cousins for use behind the County Courthouse about a zillion times.

What I am waiting for is the real campaign to ban the Daily Mail, when some guy kills an asylum seeker, and blames it on their xenophobic reporting.
