There was a young maiden who relaxed in her family room, surrounded by sisters and parents and domesticated canines, to laugh, to cry…to watch prime time T.V.
Ok, not the Fairy Tale you expected? This is my own 1980’s version. I reflect fondly on the days when whole families would come together to watch sitcoms. Nowadays, television seems to be primarily “adult” or “child” with no real middle ground…or “meeting” ground. Now, I happen to be a die-hard Phineas and Ferb fan, but lets face it, the days of real gather-together-TV seem to have gone out with the last season of the Cosby Show. Perhaps it’s because families don’t have time to sit down together at 8pm. Mark has football practice and Brittney has Gymnastics and dinner is consumed on the road between the two! Believe me…I know! A girl can wish though, can’t she?
