Sitcomeista
“I remember watching, in the sixties, an episode of ‘Get Smart’ in which some angry Indians were aiming a sixty-foot arrow at Washington and Max said something like ‘That’s the second-biggest arrow I’ve ever seen,’ and I thought, Oh great, shows are just going to keep getting nuttier and nuttier.
I never dreamed that television comedy would turn in such a dreary direction, so that all you would see is people in living rooms putting each other down.”
