Good old days?

To be honest, a LOT of things from "the good old days" sucked ass. Pens are still here, but thank god 99.99% of the worlds typewriters are rotting at the bottom of landfills. Short, fat, fingers and keyboards don't mix well, I can't get a sentence out without a damn typo. Annoying from a computer, excruciatingly painful on a typewriter. Mario was OK, but killing zombies in l4d2 is better. One thing that WAS better in the old days was TV. That is, before TV canceled every show with even a hint of violence in it and replaced them all with sitcoms. You went from having cop shows, westerns, sci fi, horror, and mystery shows, as well as sitcoms to NOTHING but sitcoms. It was like Mr. Rodgers took over the TV networks. New sat cartoons sucked ass too, they even had a "new Popeye" where Popeye and Bluto didn't fight anymore. Same with Tom and Jerry, they stopped fighting. UGGGGHHHH!!!! The only good cartoons were the old Bugs Bunny and Woody Woodpecker shows, as well as the occasional Anime ( I recall Star Blazers ). I think that started in the late 70's, and the endless sitcom droneathon lasted for years and years and years….Zzzzzzzz. The Renaissance started with two very good shows, Tour of Duty, a series about Vietnam, and Star Trek, Next Generation, both of these series started in 1987. Now it seems like the best and most creative shows are mostly on cable networks, Breaking Bad, Sons of Anarchy, The Wire and The Shield(both over, but still fit the bill). While the era of endless shitcoms (and even if you LOVE sitcoms, it was just too fucking much) is gone, I'd still say you had a LOT more variety of shows on 6 broadcast channels than you get now on over 100 channels on cable. And wtf with EVERYTHING, even so called "classic" movies having to be post 80's these days? I used to LOVE the old gangster movies with Bogart and Cagney, you NEVER see those anymore.
