WHEN DID WE HIRE A KING NANNY? Telling us what Stove we can have. I thought this was a Free Republic, not a Dictatorship. https://gailhonadle.substack.com/p/when-did-we-hire-a-king-nanny-telling

That was always one of my favorite shows as a kid, and now it seems as if we are living in it. Sometimes Hollywood got it right back then. Very seldom now, just another form of propaganda.

Unfortunately the "vision of a better world" actually envisioned by THEM is one where 90% or better of the worlds current population has been eliminated and the rest turned into something resembling a Borg hive.

I didn't know about this episode....and isn't it what is happening today? Yuval Harrari /WEF, even the ones who say we will be reduced to canniblism because peak oil, etc and this is the kinder way....

All so utilitarian and useless and horrifying.

No one or ones have the right to determine the fate of humanity.

Also the graphic novel [and film] "Watchmen" has a similar theme, where an Alien invasion is staged in order to unite humanity and prevent nuclear war.

I love this reflection. Thank you.

Oh, I think we will get a being, an inter-dimensional one, not a pure alien, but it will be presented as such. And, of course, there will be a threat, but it's not coming from out there, and it has been here for thousands of years.

Strange, isn't it, that the warring nations have pitted their countries against the people. Soon, it's already happening, we will have a one world dictator, one world government, even if it means the end of the USA, which it will.

An outstanding show of its time. Pity it was only on for 2 seasons. I still have the original trading cards that came out back then.

My favorite episode besides the pilot episode was the one with Carrol O’Connor and Robert Morse “Controlled Experiment”.
