I've tried to make sense out of the dumping of 'Dukes of Hazard' over the Confederate flag episode. To be honest, I've probably watched a total of three episodes over my whole life (145 total episodes made). Script-wise.....there was no script and there didn't seem to be any real problems worth making an hour-long (43 minutes) episode out of.
My solution to this? Make a big green digital circle, and put it over the afflicted flag when it comes over the screen.
You need to do this....because there will be other shows that you have to do something about....eventually.
For examples:
Baywatch. There's all this tight bikini action and boobs hanging out. You can run the show, but there needs to be a big green digital circle over the boobs.....in my humble opinion.
Ironside (2013 version). I'd put a big green circle over the whole screen and just run ACDC music in the background.....it's that bad.
The Tudors. Way too much boobs.....put the green digital cover over most women.
Rome. Sex scenes about every sixteen minutes.
Mr. Ed. You really can't allow kids watch the horse talking. It's not real and it begs for some scientific angle.....like fake global cooling or fake horse conversation.
Game of Thrones. Well....there's a bunch of killing and a bunch of sex. Green dots ought to be popped up every 90 seconds for some reason.
I realize there's some Confederate flag showing up around sixteen times in an average show. Will you cross off the flag in school history books or such? Where exactly do you go with the symbology business?
