back in the '90s we had tons of shows just like baywatch and married...with children. but ever since the mid '00s we haven't had any. why not? tv shows used to be fun to watch. now they are boring and serious. everything is cop shows that are serious all the time.

i really miss watching brain candy shows with t and a like unhappily ever after. shows where you turn your brain off and just enjoy funny things with hot girls degrading themselves as sex objects.

Bad to have it on tv but literally every girl degrades themselves on Instagram lol.

Because Feminazis have seized control and ruined entertainment. The last T&A show I can think of was probably Two and a Half Men, but it wasn't a very funny show to be honest.

some reality TV here and there.. but overall PC culture killed humor.

I have a theory that it was Baywatch, when it was at its zenith and was available in 90 countries, that really started making some religion-centric countries begin to resent us and our freedoms. I don’t think some of those 90 countries liked their women seeing the empowered, independent (and bikini-clad) women owning their lives and careers as depicted in Baywatch....a show that came around at the same time that cable and the Internet could make it global.

Plus the appeal about MWC is that it still holds up as one of the wittiest shows in the history of TV. I can't say the same about Baywatch, lol.
