I have a deep dislike for M*A*S*H, probably owing to the fact that it was on in my household for approximately 23 hours a day when I was growing up. The movie is good though. I want to like All in the Family but for all the talk of the people who allied with Archie Bunker back in the day, the guy is an even bigger caricature of bolde-osity than the main guy from American Dad. I mean, seriously, who took that seriously? It actually is a pretty funny show in a "ZOMG they totally could not do that in 2012" kind of way, I have to say.
I never got into Hogan's Heroes but I used to work with Bob Crane's son Scotty (who was the elder Crane's son by his second wife and co-star on Hogan's Heroes Sigrid Valdis). This was right around the time that that movie Auto-Focus came out, which portrayed Crane as a porn-hound who became estranged from his first wife and eventually was shot and killed by his porn cameraman. Scotty's take on this was pretty amusing I thought: Bob was definitely into porn, but Sigrid was always pretty okay with it and they were loyal to each other to the end. And also, it wasn't his cameraman but the Mafia who killed Crane because he was shooting unauthorized porno.
