What I've learned from T.V. (1)

People say that you can never learn anything by watching television. As a huge fan of the medium, I must disagree. I am a firm believer that you can gain great amounts of knowledge by watching t.v. In this post, and future posts, I will highlight some of the useful information that I now have stored in my brain because of television.

The Brady Bunch:

The Brady Bunch has taught me many valuable things. The first thing it has taught me is that a blended family, although it may be difficult at first, can truly work.

I also now know that "stinker" is not a socially appropriate name to call someone.

When catching a football, it is always preferable to catch it with your hands or arms, rather then your nose.

Finally, the Brady Bunch has taught me that, when it's time to change you've got to rearrange, who you are into what you're gonna be.

I agree you can learn a lot from TV.
Most fictional stories come from someone's real life experience. So, it's like a slice of life. Then, there's Barney. Keeping the grandsons last week gave me a whole new appreciation for kids' TV and the things to be learned from these creative songs and visuals.
