    Default Remember Dinosaurs?

    There was a great tv show on in the 90s http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinosaurs_%28TV_series%29

    I was watching this today and found an episode that was brilliant. Here's a link:

    The Greatest Story Ever Sold" June 22, 1994 (1994-06-22) D358
    The Council of Elders is convened to determine answers to the Great Question Of Life, and the answer is found to be Potatoism. Soon it's stake-and-potatoes for Robbie and Earl, when Robbie rejects the elders' wisdom and the duo is sentenced to be burned as infidels. But a gust of wind extinguishes the fire, and with it dies the people's belief in the message of The Great Potato.

    That show was great. They were one of the first shows to make fun of non-skeptical idiocy. Many of their shows are incredibly critical of media, politics, etc. But it was all done in humor. They made jabs at the modern family model and all sorts of other things. They could do so, because the criticisms were in dino-land and not directly pointing at humans.
