An Idea Whose Time Has Come

There are hundreds of cable and streaming channels all focused on a theme or subject just begging for an audience. I have an idea for one that at least 30 million people in this country are ready watch.

MAGA-TV – The Make America Great Again channel.

It’s the closest they can get to a time machine. Take them back to the last time America was great. When white flight was commuting to the suburbs light-years away from dangerous crime infested cities. A house cost $8,450, yearly wages for the breadwinning men topped $3,120. A new car? Easy installment payments at $1,510, but no worries gas was only 18¢ per gallon. Use as much as you want.

And to remember how happy they were, Mom or dad could take all the photographs they wanted on their Happi-Time camera!

So, I want my MAGA-TV. I want to go back to the 1950’s and be able to reimagine that America. We would have enough shows for everyone! Here are just a few …

Reality shows that taught us how to be a MAGA family

• Father Knows Best
• Leave it to Beaver
• The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet
• The Andy Griffith show

Programs that would be MAGA fun for the whole family

• I Dream of Jeannie
• Green acres
• Mister Ed
• The Munsters

History shows about the way it used to be out in the MAGA west

• The Lone Ranger
• Little House on the Prairie
• Bonanza

Shows that gave MAGA kids values to live by

• Dennis the Menace
• The Howdy Doody Show
• Leave it to Beaver

Shows that revealed the hard life of MAGA crime

• Dragnet
• Perry mason

And for the blacks

Just to make sure MAGA-TV is not perceived as racist, we would also include a few shows that proved we liked them too.

• Amos and Andy
• Moving on Up
• Stepford and Sons

And if we ran out of episodes, we can always go back to the beginning. After all isn’t that what you do with a fairy tale? Just read it again.

So, it would be MAGA-TV reruns, making America great again, and again, and again. Happily ever after.

Please smile for the Happi-Time Camera.
