|This refreshing sitcom stars Tim Allen as Mike Baxter, a marketing director for a sporting goods store chain called Outdoor Man, who strives to keep his manhood (fishing, hunting, sports and camping), and promotes conservative values (including supporting the military), in opposition to his antagonistic liberal daughter Kristin (the oldest of three daughters Mike has with his wife Vanessa) and her equally-liberal husband Ryan, who often clashes with both Mike and Vanessa over political, cultural and philosophical issues. Unlike the similar and more vehement clashes between Archie Bunker and Mike Stivic in ''[[All in the Family]]'' where the latter comes out on top due to Archie's ignorance and lack of ability to make cohesive arguments, the often clueless and hypocritical Ryan loses arguments with the more well-versed and level-headed Mike. Meanwhile, Mike gets along very well with his youngest daughter Eve due to their similar political views and interests, as he does with Boyd, Kristin and Ryan's son and Mike's grandson (as expected, Kristin and Ryan are not impressed that Boyd has more in common with his grandfather than with them). Unfortunately, the liberal parent network [[ABC]] canceled the series due to its pro-Donald Trump humor, despite it having high ratings.<ref>http://www.dailywire.com/news/16317/despite-high-ratings-abc-cancels-trump-friendly-john-nolte?utm_source=dwemail&utm_medium=email&utm_content=051117-news&utm_campaign=position1</ref> This resulted in Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker taking to Twitter to denounce ABC for the decision,<ref>https://twitter.com/ScottWalker/status/862697237817765888?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dailywire.com%2Fnews%2F16450%2Fabc-hit-boycott-canceling-last-man-standing-hank-berrien</ref> as well as a boycott against ABC and a petition demanding that ABC bring back ''Last Man Standing'', the latter getting over 10,000 signatures within the night the petition was first made.<ref>http://www.dailywire.com/news/16450/abc-hit-boycott-canceling-last-man-standing-hank-berrien?utm_source=dwemail&utm_medium=email&utm_content=051517-news&utm_campaign=position3</ref> When Country Music Television (CMT) picked up the series for syndication, rumors that it would continue the series started spreading.

|An adaptation of the [[Essay:Greatest Conservative Video Games|Greatest Conservative Video Game]] franchise ''Castlevania'' (and more specifically the game ''Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse''), the series features an anti-misanthropy message, as the heroes, including the dhampir son of Dracula, Alucard, attempt to stop Dracula from committing genocide against humanity. It also features a condemnation towards corruption within the church, as the primary reason why Dracula desired to commit genocide against humanity was because a corrupt and fanatical bishop had Dracula's wife, Lisa, executed by stake burning under false charges of her being a witch. It is also strongly implied that the village that Dracula had attacked and had been responsible for Lisa's death had been very lax in their Christian faith, with the villagers clearly being depicted negatively due to this. In contrast to similar films (such as the [[Essay:Worst Liberal Movies|Worst Liberal Movie]] ''The Hunchback of Notre Dame'' by Disney), it delivers this message without demonizing Christianity, as one of the few good priests in the village aids the heroes with Holy Water against Dracula's demonic hordes. The heroes also attempt to aid the village despite the village's past persecution of them.

|This Canadian CGI series was created by Ian Pearson and Gavin Blair, the makers of the CGI in the famous Dire Straits "Money for Nothing" music video. It takes place in a digital world called Mainframe where the Guardian Bob fights against the evil viruses Megabyte and Hexadecimal. His allies include Dot Matrix and her little brother Enzo.
 +
 +
The series contains pro-family themes in its depiction of the familial relationship between Dot and Enzo, with Dot acting as a mother to Enzo due to their parents being deceased. Dot is very caring and protective of Enzo, while Enzo looks up to his sister and affectionately calls her "sis."
 +
 +
The series promotes capitalism, as Dot is the owner of a Diner. In the second episode "Racing the Clock," Enzo aspires to be a capitalist like his sister by starting his own delivery service.
 +
 +
The series also condemns the use of smear propaganda. In Season 3, the show's original protagonist, Bob, has been thrown into the Web, and Enzo, having been recently made a Guardian, carries on in his stead. However, Megabyte uses his minion, Cyrus, to launch a smear campaign to turn the Mainframers against Enzo.
 +
 +
The series promotes redemption, as Cyrus eventually changes sides and helps Enzo win a "game" (a large purple cube that comes down and puts Mainframers in a virtual games world where they will be "nullified" if they lose to the Player Character, referred to as the "User"). Hack and Slash, Megabyte's two most prominent henchmen, as well as the virus Hexadecimal, also eventually turn good.

|The series is (in)famous for its promotion of homosexuality with Kunzite/Zoicite and Uranus/Neptune (with the latter relationship being altered during localization to them being "cousins", which due to them retaining the kissing element ended up implying that they were committing incest in the dub) and transgenderism with the Sailor Starlights. (it should be noted in the original manga, Kunzite and Zoicite were not romantically involved at all, having a more brotherly relationship, the original plan being that the four Shitennou to be romantically involved with the Inner Senshi, and the Sailor Starlights were simply female who disguised themselves as men as part of a plan to save their princess, the latter of which irritated creator Naoko Takeuchi slightly). On the other hand, it is also pro-family, as Usagi Tsukino (Sailor Moon) has very loving and caring parents whom she loves very much, though they do understandably get on her case about her grades. Rei Hino (Sailor Mars) is also very close to her grandfather, often taking care of him due to his advanced age. Ami Mizuno (Sailor Mercury) admires her doctor mother and wishes to follow in her mother’s footsteps and is also very hurt by her parents being divorced and the fact she only hears from her artist father once a year. Also, when Usagi and Mamoru Chiba’s (Tuxedo Mask) future daughter Chibi-Usa is introduced, she is shown to be very close to her parents and present-day Usagi and Mamoru take care of her like a little sister.

|The series is (in)famous for its promotion of homosexuality with Kunzite/Zoicite and Uranus/Neptune (the former being changed to a heterosexual couple during the initial English localisation (Zoicite was changed to female due to having a slightly more feminine appearance) the latter relationship being altered during localization to them being "cousins", which despite the dubbing company omitting the kissing element, ends up implying that they were committing incest in the dub) and transgenderism with the Sailor Starlights.

The series also contains themes of unconditional love, friendship, mercy, and redemption. Usagi and Rei tend to bicker and get into cranky arguments, but they still really care about each other. The recurring Dark Kingdom Villain Nephrite disguises himself as a human named "Masato Sanjouin" and one of Usagi's friends, Naru, falls in love with him. Naru still loves him even after learning who he really is and eventually, he falls in love with her. Nephrite ultimately sacrifices his life by intercepting an attack that was meant for Naru. In the second season (Sailor Moon R) both sets of villains (The Makai Tree Aliens and the Black Moon Clan) have very distorted understandings of what love is. The Sailor Senshi teach them what real love is. With the Makai Tree Aliens, it’s that love is given, not taken. With the Black Moon Clan they show the Four Specter Sisters that love is unconditional after each of them feels the rejection of their superiors and loses hope. Eventually, all four sisters become good after Sailor Moon uses her crystal to purify them of their dark energy.

Live Action Series

Title Original run Network TV rating Description
21 Jump Street 1987-1991 Fox NR Undercover cops do everything they can do in order to stop young people (teenagers) from their lives being ruined (mostly via drug usage).
24 2001-2010 Fox TV 14 Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland) protects America at all costs against all terrorists, whether Islamic, European, Communist Chinese, African, or even from within the U.S. government. The 2017 sequel series, 24: Legacy, stars Corey Hawkins as ex-Army Ranger Eric Carter, who battles Islamic terrorists planning attacks on American soil.
24: Live Another Day 2014 Fox TV 14 Jack Bauer, after four years, returns and tries to thwart a multi-pronged terrorist attack within Great Britain, including the near-assassination of the President, which involves both Islamic terrorists and Chinese terrorists with some backing from the Russians.
The 700 Club 1966–present Christian Broadcasting Network, Freeform, first-run syndication This Christian-oriented news magazine program contains musical performances, testimonies from guests, ministry, Bible study and current news, events, lifestyle reports, and investigative reporting. Current hosts include Pat Robertson (the show's creator and original host), Gordon P. Robertson, Terry Meeuwsen, and Wendy Griffith.
Adam-12 1968-1975 NBC TV rating PG This spinoff of the Jack Webb-produced series Dragnet, also based on actual cases and more than one per episode, now focuses on LAPD street patrol officers Peter Malloy and James (Jim) Reed while demonstrating the same moral examples as Dragnet. It was remade into a limited (Los Angeles and New York City) syndication show in 1989-1991 with unknown main players, new characters, and situations. None of the original series' three main players (Martin Milner, Kent McCord, William Boyett) ever fell victim to Hollywood Values because hey stayed married to their same wives, with nine children among them: Milner (who died in 2015 at age 83) had four, McCord had three, and Boyett (who died in 2004 at age 77) had two and became a grandfather twice over. The 1969 episode"Baby" is rumored to be based on Kent McCord's own real life wife's birth of one of their own children that year.
Adam 1983 NBC TV NR TV made film on the abduction and murder of John Walsh's son Adam in 1981 and his crusade for missing and exploited children. Followed by a sequel, Adam: His Song Continues (1986).
The Adams Chronicles 1976 PBS TV NR A thirteen episode miniseries dedicated to founding father John Adams and his family, made in honor of the American Bicentennial.
The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet 1952-1966 ABC This long running comedy show epitomizes 1950s stable families and their values, featuring fictionalized versions of the real-life Nelson family (bandleader Ozzie Nelson, his wife Harriet, and their sons David and Ricky). The sitcom ran for 14 seasons and switched from its original black-and-white format to color in its final season in 1965. A sequel series, Ozzie's Girls, in which David and Ricky are absent as two college girls move into the boys' old room as Ozzie and Harriet's boarders, aired in first-run syndication in 1973–74.
Adventures of Superman 1952-1958 First-run syndication Live action adaptation of American icon Superman fights for truth, justice, and (of course) the American Way.
American Idol 2002-2016 Fox TV-PG This reality talent show allows the best amateur singers of the public to come to the fore musically, with the winner at the end of each season earning a recording deal. This reflects the core of the American Dream: anyone, regardless of his or her origins, can succeed and move upwards in society.
American Ninja Warrior 2009-present NBC TV-PG Contestants go through physical challenges in battling out through strength. Only legal US residents may enter on the show. Also many of the contestants share their stories which show family and the military in positive light, and drugs in negative light.
America's Most Wanted 1988-2011 Fox TV TV NR/PG13 John Walsh hosts news documentary of well-known suspects and fugitives, their crimes and captures. Was the real life father of above mentioned Adam Walsh and subject of above mentioned TV films named for him.
The Andy Griffith Show 1960–1968 CBS TV-G Andy Griffith stars as Andy Taylor, small-town sheriff and widowed father of young son Opie Taylor (played by Ron Howard), who keeps law and order in his hometown of Mayberry, North Carolina, assisted by his bumbling but well-meaning deputy Barney Fife (Don Knotts). Andy and Opie's Aunt Bee (Frances Bavier) lives at the Taylor house as a live-in housekeeper and mother/grandmother figure to Opie, and other friends and neighbors of Andy's include local barber Floyd Lawson (Howard McNear), gas station attendant/mechanic and occasional deputy Gomer Pyle (Jim Nabors) and his cousin Goober Pyle (George Lindsey), town drunk Otis Campbell (Hal Smith), county clerk Howard Sprague (Jack Dodson), school teacher (and later Andy's love interest) Helen Crump (Aneta Corsaut), Aunt Bee's best friend Clara Edwards (Hope Summers), Barney's girlfriend Thelma Lou (Betty Lynn), repair shop owner Emmett Clark (Paul Hartman) and local farmer Sam Jones (Ken Berry).

The show focused on Andy's approach to enforcing the law in Mayberry as he uses common sense, mediation and conciliation to settle disputes among the townsfolk while taking on and defeating out-of-town criminals on occasion using practicality and understanding of each case (and, when necessary, a firearm), along with his home life as he raises Opie with Aunt Bee's help (showing the importance of family), and his social life as he hangs out with Floyd and other friends at Floyd's barber shop or takes out women he is dating (including Helen in later seasons) on picnics or for nights out for dinner and a movie or dancing. A spinoff series, Gomer Pyle, USMC, centered around good-natured bumpkin Gomer and his time spent in the United States Marine Corps, while Mayberry RFD, a sequel series to The Andy Griffith Show, focused on Sam Jones, his young son Mike (Buddy Foster) and many of Mayberry's citizens, with Andy and Helen finally getting married on that show's series premiere. A 1986 reunion movie, Return to Mayberry, brought most of the show's surviving cast members back together as Andy returned to Mayberry to run for sheriff again in a campaign against his former deputy Barney.

The Andy Griffith Show ran on CBS for eight seasons, with the first five seasons filmed in black-and-white before switching to color for the remaining seasons. It was a Top Ten performer throughout its run, finishing its final season as the number-one show on American television, and it continues to air in syndication to the present.

Antiques Roadshow 1997- PBS NR Shows the real value (financial and historical) of handcrafts and traditional, old-fashioned things and memorabilia. One of the rare conservative shows to air on the ultra-liberal PBS. It was made by the same station that also made the liberal Postcards from Buster.
The Apprentice 2004-2015, 2017 NBC NR In this reality competition series, contestants compete for a prestigious position in one of the divisions of Donald Trump's business empire. Liberals stopped watching when they realized that Trump, who was apparently a liberal for much of the 2000s, was turning conservative. Conservative California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger hosted the 2017 season.
Band of Brothers 2001 HBO TV-MA This World War II military drama deals with the exploits of E Company, 506th Infantry Regiment of the United States Army. Similar to Saving Private Ryan, the mini-series promotes the military and American values in a positive light as well as the Nazis in a negative light.
Beakman's World 1992-1998 CBS TV-G An eccentric scientist named Beakman teaches children about science better than the Department of Education ever could, the free market at work.
Bibleman 1995-2010 Direct to video In this aptly-named series, Miles Peterson loses his money, power, and fame and is directionless until he becomes a superhero by harnessing the power of God. He then devotes himself to defending Christianity against evildoers who seek to suppress it and its followers and turn them to lives of atheism and evil.
Black Saddle 1959-1960 ABC Peter Breck plays Clay Culhane, a gunfighter-turned-lawyer who seeks to help those in need of legal representation; co-starring Russell Johnson as Marshal Gib Scott.
Blue Bloods 2010- CBS TV-PG Conservative police officer show, that also promotes family. Stars conservative actor Tom Selleck as officer Frank Reagan (a possible name reference to Ronald Reagan). It also features Christian principles, with religion playing a fairly major role in several episodes, and each episode also ending with the Reagan family saying prayers before a meal (with such an overt depiction of Christian principles being rare on present-day TV). In addition, the series is clearly pro-Law Enforcement, with episodes dealing with conflicts between the city hall and the police force being present and the characters trying to demonize the police force, some of which including journalists, being shown in a negative light. This is ultimately necessary especially given the anti-law enforcement agenda being pushed in various liberal media.

The officers educate viewers in law enforcement jargon and the Rule of Law, all the while showing fine examples of moral conduct, honor of oneself and others, and sacrifice for the good of the public. The 1967 revival also included more contemporary themes, such as increased drug use in society due to the rise of the counterculture, along with hippies, leftist and racist revolutionaries and other products of the counterculture openly displaying their contempt for the law and those who enforce it, although such characters invariably pay the price by the end of each episode for their bad choices. A second revival of Dragnet was planned by Webb in 1982, with him reprising his Joe Friday role again and with Adam-12 star Kent McCord cast as Friday's new partner (possibly reprising his Jim Reed role from Adam-12), but the revival was shelved following Webb's death from a heart attack on December 23, 1982.
Duck Dynasty 2012-2017 A&E TV-PG This reality series portrays the lives of the Robertson family, who famously turned duck calls into the magnificent business empire Duck Commander, stand by their strong Christian beliefs, and are active hunters. Liberals despise this series so much that they conducted two ploys to damage this wholesome show's reputation. First, in the series' early days, the liberal parent network A&E censored any use of the word "Jesus" in the prayers that close most episodes. Second, in December 2013, the staunchly liberal magazine Gentleman's Quarterly (GQ) infamously tricked patriarch Phil Robertson, who founded the family business, into being open about his conservative, anti-homosexual values, which led to Phil (who is not uneducated, as he holds a master's degree in education) being suspended from appearing in further episodes for nine days. The magazine also accused Phil of being racist simply because he said he never saw the mistreatment of any African American person in his younger days during the Civil Rights era. Poor Phil wasn't saying that he wasn't unaware of the prevalent race issues the 1960s but that he grew up in an area where people lived and worked in harmony regardless of skin color, so he witnessed no acts of racism in person.
Emergency! 1972-1977, with TV movie specials, "The Final Rescues", periodically from Winter 1978-Summer 1979.

Even Stevens 2000-2003 Disney Channel TV-G Pro-family TV show with positive messages and good values. While its main audience was intended to be kids, it had a way of appealing to the whole family. Not to mention it was the first live action show of Disney Channel of the 2000s, considered to be its best decade to date. It also, for Disney Channel shows of its time and since, depicts the father as being fairly competent and mature as well as a voice of reason, although he does at times become very high tense and possess a short temper (which is usually justified due to Louis's antics). Unfortunately this decade was followed by Disney Channel shows that are less classy and much more obscene, and political correct.

Followed by a more liberal-leaning sequel, Fuller House, which debuted on Netflix in 2016 and promotes more liberal values and politics (including the trashing of Donald Trump in the pilot episode) and shows them in a positive light, as well as looking very much like nearly every live-action Disney Channel show produced in recent years. Series star Candace Cameron Bure, who appears in both shows and was also a panelist on ABC talk show The View (acting as the conservative counterpoint to the show's heavily liberal panelists; she left due to the bi-coastal commute -- Bure lives in northern California -- keeping her away from her family, as well as to focus on her work with Hallmark Channel), is a born-again Christian and is socially conservative.

As with many other police shows made during this period, many episodes from the early seasons of the series (from its 1968 debut to about 1973-74) showed the contemptuous and disrespectful behavior and attitudes displayed by the then-current young generation toward the police and traditional values due to the influence of the counterculture, along with the consequences paid by those of the counterculture who choose to flout the law and societal norms. A reboot of the series was launched in 2010.

The Last Man on Earth 2015-Present Fox PG Despite being created by liberal Saturday Night Live alumnus Will Forte, as well as its outbursts of bathroom humor, this post-apocalyptic sitcom seems to show conservative, pro-family and pro-friendship values consistently winning in the end. Forte portrays the initially unsympathetic title character, the loser everyman Phil Miller, who believes he is the only human survivor after a deadly virus killed most of the world's human and animal population about a year earlier. He scours North America for other signs of life and, upon failing to find anyone else, returns to his hometown of Tucson, Arizona, where he engages in all sorts of hedonism and nihilism until he nearly attempts suicide. Right before crashing his truck into a boulder, he discovers surviving woman Carol Pilbasian, who believes in traditional marriage and encourages Phil to become a more moral and honest person. As the series progresses, they are joined by more survivors, who are all consistently annoyed by Phil's selfish, nihilistic attitude and personality, thus inspiring Phil to give up his wasteful, adulterous, sinful habits and grow into a better man than he was before the outbreak of the virus. Each time Phil tries to deviate from traditional family values, as when he develops an interest in one of the other female survivors and either tries to woo her or prove himself more desirable than other men in the group, his schemes backfire, and his actions are punished. Thus, the series teaches that it is more admirable to be part of a traditional family than to have casual sexual relationships with multiple women. Lastly, the show may promote Christianity because being an apocalypse survivor has given Phil either new or renewed faith in God, who answers each of his prayers in one form or another.
Last Man Standing 2011-2017 (ABC) 2018-present (Fox) ABC & Fox TV-PG This refreshing sitcom stars Tim Allen as Mike Baxter, a marketing director for a sporting goods store chain called Outdoor Man, who strives to keep his manhood (fishing, hunting, sports and camping), and promotes conservative values (including supporting the military), in opposition to his antagonistic liberal daughter Kristin (the oldest of three daughters Mike has with his wife Vanessa) and her equally-liberal husband Ryan, who often clashes with both Mike and Vanessa over political, cultural and philosophical issues. Unlike the similar and more vehement clashes between Archie Bunker and Mike Stivic in All in the Family where the latter comes out on top due to Archie's ignorance and lack of ability to make cohesive arguments, the often clueless and hypocritical Ryan loses arguments with the more well-versed and level-headed Mike. Meanwhile, Mike gets along very well with his youngest daughter Eve due to their similar political views and interests, as he does with Boyd, Kristin and Ryan's son and Mike's grandson (as expected, Kristin and Ryan are not impressed that Boyd has more in common with his grandfather than with them). Unfortunately, the liberal parent network ABC canceled the series due to its pro-Donald Trump humor, despite it having high ratings.[2] This resulted in Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker taking to Twitter to denounce ABC for the decision,[3] as well as a boycott against ABC and a petition demanding that ABC bring back Last Man Standing, the latter getting over 10,000 signatures within the night the petition was first made.[4] When Country Music Television (CMT) picked up the series for syndication, rumors that it would continue the series started spreading. In May 2018, it was announced the series was being revived by Fox and will return on that network for the 2018-19 season.[5] On its premiere, it managed to gain more viewers than the first episode of the reboot of Murphy Brown.[6]

The Middle 2009- ABC TV-PG Despite having a homosexual character (he's only a minor character though, and doesn't come out until later in the series.

In addition, the fourth episode, "Radical", has a condemnation of both Socialists/Communists and Professor Values, as the main threat in the episode was an expelled student radical who was going to blow up several businesses while repeating various rhetoric from left-wing socialist organizations like Occupy Wall Street, and the one who was responsible for the kid's actions was a professor in a political science course at the local college who orchestrated various socialist protests on the campus and was never fired despite his being the ringleader due to his having tenure (which was explicitly stated to have him completely immune from being removed from the school regardless of what actions his students took in his name unless he directly incited the students to commit murder), with their being depicted in a very negative light as a result.

Even when liberal Michael Eisner took over Disney, he largely kept the conservative elements of the show intact.

Coincidentally, it both began and ended on a Wednesday.

Not only does Bob stand up for chivalry and try and rescue her, but Linda, when discovering this independently, makes clear she has no intention of cheating on her husband. This series is pro family since the Belcher children, Tina, Gene and Louise, may tease each other, but will stick up for one another when needed, unlike most siblings in today's liberal media. To a lesser extent, the series pokes fun at environmentalists.
Bob the Builder 1998-2012, 2015- BBC (UK)
PBS Kids (US)
TV-Y The titular character is a hard worker for his wife named Wendy. Many of his anthropomorphic construction vehicles overcome hardships.

The series originated in the United Kingdom and has been brought back in 2015 in Canada.
Castlevania 2018- Netflix An adaptation of the Greatest Conservative Video Game franchise Castlevania (and more specifically the game Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse), the series features an anti-misanthropy message, as the heroes, including the dhampir son of Dracula, Alucard, attempt to stop Dracula from committing genocide against humanity. It also features a condemnation towards corruption within the church, as the primary reason why Dracula desired to commit genocide against humanity was because a corrupt and fanatical bishop had Dracula's wife, Lisa, executed by stake burning under false charges of her being a witch. It is also strongly implied that the village that Dracula had attacked and had been responsible for Lisa's death had been very lax in their Christian faith, with the villagers clearly being depicted negatively due to this. In contrast to similar films (such as the Worst Liberal Movie The Hunchback of Notre Dame by Disney), it delivers this message without demonizing Christianity, as one of the few good priests in the village aids the heroes with Holy Water against Dracula's demonic hordes. The heroes also attempt to aid the village despite the village's past persecution of them.

El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera 2007-2008 Nickelodeon TV-Y7 Unlike most superhero cartoons, Manny Rivera usually debates using his powers for good or evil. But in the end he ends up doing them for good. Throughout the cartoon he also learns how to a responsible adult. The show is also pro-family as Manny's father is seen as a positive role model. One of the villains is also named Che (a nod to the terrorist murder Che Guevara). The episode "Clash of the Titan" also shows Manny's father ending his partnership with Titanium Titan because he states his family was more important than his partnership. Although Grandpapi (Manny Rivera's grandpa) is a "villain", he's more of a comic relief character rather than a thoroughly evil character; on top of that, he is still regarded as part of the family.

The Fairly OddParents 1998- Nickelodeon TV-Y7 The main protagonist, Timmy Turner, commonly wishes for things from his quirky fairy godparents that aren't the best, but he almost always learns his lesson in the end. The series, created by Christian animator Butch Hartman, exposes the dangers of wishing for one's personal gain at the expense of others. Furthermore, it lightly pokes fun at the public school system: Denzel Crocker, a teacher and a regular antagonist, is completely insane and obsessed with both giving poor grades and trying to prove to the world that fairy godparents exist for his own personal gain.
Fantastic Four 1994-1996 Fox Kids TV-Y7 The team the Fantastic Four use their powers to help those in need.

G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero 1983-1989 First-run syndication One of the most conservative pro-military and pro-American cartoons ever made. The opening narration for the show by voice actor Jackson Beck explains the series premise: "G.I. Joe is the code name for America's daring, highly-trained special mission force. Its purpose, to defend human freedom against Cobra, the ruthless terrorist organization determined to rule the world." The show carries themes of patriotism, friendship, and teamwork. The show's depiction of Cobra shows terrorism in a negative light, with Cobra using common terrorist tactics, such as extortion.

The episode "Twenty Questions" paints the mainstream media in a negative light, with the media accusing the G.I. Joes of being a waste of taxpayer money and a conspiracy theorist claiming that Cobra is "fake" and their battles are "staged" (like the claims that 9/11 was an inside job to start the War on Terror).

The two-part episode "Worlds Without End" has several of the Joes being transported to an alternate universe where Cobra has conquered the world, and they run it in a Communist fashion where there are things like long food lines.

The show also condemns the Social justice warrior mentality. The episode "Let's Play Soldier" has a scene in which Gung-ho apprehends a Southeast Asian pirate who says "Please let me go, I am an only innocent pawn of a Capitalist machine!" to which Gung-ho replies "This guy must've studied Political Science at UCLA." The main focus of the episode is on a group of half-white, half-Asian children who are referred as "dust children" by the locals, which makes the episode one of the few depictions of racism by non-white people in any media.

The episode "Second Hand Emotions" ends with the wedding of Lifeline's sister and the preacher (Lifeline's father) quotes Mark 10:9 "That which God has joined, let no man put asunder." Although it is a common quote in many real life weddings, this is one of the few fictional weddings to acknowledge God.

Handy Manny 2006-2013 Playhouse Disney TV-Y This cartoon was influenced by Bob the Builder and is a well done children's cartoon as well! It also promotes hard work, overcoming hardships, and friendship values.
Higglytown Heroes 2004-2008 Playhouse Disney TV-Y Four young friends (who are Russian dolls) and their pet squirrel learn the importance of heroic people such as police officers, firefighters, paramedics, etc. They also say in every episode that they inspire to be heroes just like those people if they "work real hard". One of the characters also has a dad in the military in one episode.
Home Movies 1997-2000 UPN TV-PG An intelligent teenage filmmaker, his girlfriend, and their friends live normal lives where they have fun without any drug use, casual sex, or other rebellious behaviours depicted in most adult-oriented cartoons. There is also a strong anti-public school message, as the teachers and principal of the main characters' high school are portrayed as idiots who use the classroom as an indoctrination space. The show's dialogue was entirely based on improv with no scripting.
Iron Man: The Animated Series 1994-1996 Fox Kids TV-Y7 Capitalist Tony Strake a.k.a Iron Man uses his powered exoskeleton to fight for the greater good. Show also isn't politically correct of Islamic terrorism as it features the Muslim villain the Mandarin
Kikoriki (known in Russia as Smeshariki) 2004-2012 CTC and Russia 1 (Russia) TV-Y Despite being a Russian cartoon, this is an example of a children's cartoon done much better than many in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and Japan. Children can learn some valuable lessons and even some educational ones from watching this, and also contains content that adults will enjoy as well!
Legion of Super-Heroes 2006-2008 Kids WB TV-Y7 Based on the overlooked DC Comics team of the same name. A private non-profit organization led by Superman helps those in need. One episode in particular "Lightning Storm" has a group of super "heroes" who taxes people for their service (big government) as opposed to helping people for the greater good.
Liberty's Kids 2002-2003 PBS Kids TV-Y7 Does the title not say it all? Three young reporters (consisting of an American colonist, a British expatriate, and their cuddly French sidekick) working for the Pennsylvania Gazette newspaper witness the era of the American Revolution and its aftermath through their innocent eyes and learn what America represents. Key figures from the era make recurring and guest appearances as well, most often Benjamin Franklin and George Washington.

Educational by nature, it teaches young audiences about human anatomy better than the Department of Education ever could.
Phineas and Ferb 2007-2015 Disney XD TV-G The show follows the daily adventures of Phineas Flynn and his stepbrother, Ferb Fletcher, as well as their friends. Each day, the brothers build a different contraption, ranging from roller coasters to time machines to robotic platypus posteriors. All the while, their older sister, Candace Flynn, attempts to "bust" the boys by revealing to their mom her brothers' inventions, only for them to be daily wiped away before her mother sees. The show also includes the family's pet, Perry, who as secret-agent platypus fights against the evil schemes of Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz. Despite being about a non-biologically related family, though it never states if the parents were divorced or widowed, the show promotes family values and encourages friendship, as well as the golden rule. The show has humor for the young age group intended, but is just as easily amusing to adults and teenagers, including clean social satire.
Popeye the Sailor 1933-1957 (theatrical); 1960–1962 (TV) First-run syndication TV-G Adapted from a well-known comic strip, Popeye is a one-eyed U.S. Navy sailor who protects his girlfriend, Olive Oyl, from the infamous philanderer Bluto (later called Brutus in the TV cartoons).

Private Snafu 1943–46 Warner Bros. (produced for the United States War Department) N/A These instructional cartoon shorts, ironic and humorous in tone, were produced between 1943 and 1945 during World War II.

On some occasions the cartoons depicted Private Snafu's death as a result of failure to follow proper instructions. One of the cartoons, Spies, was later used as an exhibit at the CIA-made International Spy Museum. (The term "snafu" is an acrostic which stands for "situation normal -- all fouled up", though "fouled" is usually replaced with the better-known expletive.)

ReBoot 1994-2001 YTV (Canada), ABC 1994-1996, First-run Syndication (US), 1997-2001 TV-Y7 This Canadian CGI series was created by Ian Pearson and Gavin Blair, the makers of the CGI in the famous Dire Straits "Money for Nothing" music video. It takes place in a digital world called Mainframe where the Guardian Bob fights against the evil viruses Megabyte and Hexadecimal. His allies include Dot Matrix and her little brother Enzo.

The series contains pro-family themes in its depiction of the familial relationship between Dot and Enzo, with Dot acting as a mother to Enzo due to their parents being deceased. Dot is very caring and protective of Enzo, while Enzo looks up to his sister and affectionately calls her "sis."

The series promotes capitalism, as Dot is the owner of a Diner. In the second episode "Racing the Clock," Enzo aspires to be a capitalist like his sister by starting his own delivery service.

The series also condemns the use of smear propaganda. In Season 3, the show's original protagonist, Bob, has been thrown into the Web, and Enzo, having been recently made a Guardian, carries on in his stead. However, Megabyte uses his minion, Cyrus, to launch a smear campaign to turn the Mainframers against Enzo.

The series promotes redemption, as Cyrus eventually changes sides and helps Enzo win a "game" (a large purple cube that comes down and puts Mainframers in a virtual games world where they will be "nullified" if they lose to the Player Character, referred to as the "User"). Hack and Slash, Megabyte's two most prominent henchmen, as well as the virus Hexadecimal, also eventually turn good.

TaleSpin 1990-1991 Disney Channel TV-Y Baloo (A character who first appeared in The Jungle Book) works as a cargo pilot for a small business called "Higher for Hire." The business is owned by capitalist businesswoman Rebecca Cunningham. Although Baloo's employer is female, the series does not promote feminism because Rebecca shows respect for Baloo when he does something good and she makes mistakes sometimes. The series is also pro-family, as Baloo serves as a father figure for his adopted son Kit Cloudkicker and Rebecca is shown to be a loving, caring mother to her daughter Molly.

The series also depicts Socialism, Communism, and Big Government in a negative light, as the recurring nation of "Thembria" (a stand-in for the Soviet Union) is a poverty-stricken nation constantly marred by big-government bureaucracy with long lines for basic government services. It's recurring representative, Colonel Spigot, acts like a Russian Commissar, constantly boasting about his country's "greatness" with no self-awareness of how terrible his country really is. Thembria is a Police State in which people are often charged with frivolous crimes as an excuse to imprison people. Thembria is depicted as having state-run media and total censorship of all foreign media. The state-run media broadcasts public executions to make "examples" of those who resist the state. Thembria's leader, the "High Marshall," is depicted as a totalitarian, egotistical Stalin-like figure who uses Communist cliches like "the people's [blank]."

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987 series) 1987-1996 Syndication (1987-1989), CBS (1990-1996) NR Loosely based on the comic book series of the same name by Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman. Four anthropomorphic turtles, guided by their Master and father figure Splinter, and anthropomorphic rat, fight to protect New York City from the evil forces of Shredder and Krang, in addition to other villains and criminals. The series contains pro-family themes as the turtles are brothers and their Mentor Splinter acts as a surrogate father, whom the turtles treat with great respect.

The series also depicts the Mainstream Media in a negative light, as the head of Channel 6, Burne Thompson, constantly attempts to slander the turtles and turn the public against them (a la J. Jonah Jameson from Spiderman). Also, In the episode "Turtles on Trial," a slimy, sleazy talk show host named "Clayton Kellerman" (an obvious reference to liberal talk show host David Letterman) mocks, insults, and slanders the turtles very badly, and even after they save his life, he still refuses to recant his slander because he "has a reputation to uphold and [he] didn't get it by being a nice guy." The only positive member of the media is the Turtles' ally April O' Neil who acts very much like a modern internet pundit countering the slander against the Turtles and revealing the truth.

The show also has an anti-pacifist message:

In the episode "Hot-Rodding Teenagers from Dimension X" the "Neutrinos" are introduced as a group of Pacifists from Dimension X (The dimension where the main villain Krang and his Technodrome are from) who don't want to fight and just want to have fun. They are shown having lots of fun on Earth (without any teenage vices) and don't want to go back to the war in Dimension X. But by the end of the episode, they realize the necessity of fighting against the forces of Krang in Dimension X.

In the episode "Attack of the big MACC," MACC is introduced as a soldier robot from the future who doesn't want to fight anymore (like No. 5 from Short Circuit), but by the end of the episode, the Turtles convince him to become a "soldier for peace," indicating that peace will only come if its fought for.

In "Planet of the Turtleoids," the titular race of anthropomorphic turtles are pacifists who live in the idyllic city of "Shell-ri-la" are defenseless against a two-headed dragon named Herman the Horrible (who turns out to be a machine piloted by two corrupt members of Shell-ri-la's own government). This demonstrates how pacifism merely leaves a nation at the mercy of any aggressor who might attack it.

Teen Titans 2003-2006 Cartoon Network TV-Y7 A private non-profit organization led by Robin and super powered teens use their powers for good.
This is America, Charlie Brown! 1988-1989 CBS An eight-part miniseries that, as indicated by the title, deals with the Peanuts characters reenacting various key moments in America's history, including the Constitutional Convention, the Transcontinental Railroad's development, the creation of the NASA space station, and various American inventors.

The Transformers 1984-1987 First-Run Syndication The Autobots protect Earth and humanity from their old enemies, the Decepticons.

The show also promotes family with the relationship between Spike Witwicky and his father, Sparkplug, and later Spike's wife Carly and son Daniel.

In the episode "Megatron's Master Plan," the Decepticons disguise themselves as Autobots in a False Flag Operation to frame the Autobots and they are helped by an unscrupulous human named Shawn Berger. As a result, the Autobots are banished from Earth, and the Decepticons take over and enslave humanity. Ironhide and Cliffjumper eventually persuade Optimus Prime to head back to Earth, on the understanding that it's better to protect the humans from the Decepticons even if they're not appreciated for it. After thwarting an attempt to push them into the sun, the Autobots liberate the humans from the Decepticons, vindicating themselves despite the lack of evidence of the False flag. In season 2, a new group of flying Autobots, the Aerialbots, are introduced. At first, they don't see the value of protecting humans since humans are smaller, weaker, and more frail than they are. Their attitude changes as they get to know the humans. The episode "Thief in the Night" eschews Political Correctness by depicting a Libya-like dictatorship called "Carbombya" and its dictator Abdul Fakkadi is an obvious reference to Muammar al-Gaddafi. Fakkadi is depicted as extremely egotistical and narcissistic, just like the real-life Gaddafi, and the name of his country is a reference to Gaddafi's support of terrorists. This episode offended Liberal actor (and "Palestinian" sympathizer) Casey Kasem, who left the show over it.

T.U.F.F. Puppy 2010-2015 Nickelodeon TV-Y7 This cartoon by Christian animator Butch Hartman takes place in a world of anthropomorphic animals mirroring the Cold War era from the late 1950s through the 1960s (Hartman calls the series "Get Smart with a dog").

The show also states that government should say away from the social issue involving discrimination rather letting society accept them for what they are.

A Charlie Brown Christmas 1965 CBS G Based upon the Peanuts comic strip created by Charles M. Schulz, the real meaning of Christmas is discussed in the first animated prime-time Peanuts TV special, as Linus quotes Luke 2:8-14. Decries the materialism that surrounds the Christmas holiday.
A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving 1973 CBS N/A The special sees Linus detailing the first Thanksgiving feast back in 1621, and Charlie Brown and his friends proceed to go over to his grandmother's house after she allows them to come over.
Christmas Who 2000 Nickelodeon TV-Y7 Even though it comes from a television series called SpongeBob SquarePants, which is arguably conservative, this particular episode is very great and conservative! It can be seen as both a parody of the classic conservative novel by Charles Dickens called A Christmas Carol as well as a Christmas special in its own right. After SpongeBob is introduced to Christmas by Sandy Cheeks (he humorously believes her treedome caught on fire, when in reality Sandy was putting up Christmas decorations), he is eager to celebrate with the rest of his friends. Squidward Tentacles starts out hating Christmas when SpongeBob first tells him about it, akin to Ebenezer Scrooge and his nephew, Fred, but ends up giving everything he owns to other citizens in Bikini Bottom.
Frosty the Snowman 1969 CBS N/A This animated adaptation of the classic Christmas song of the same name follows almost the exact narrative of the song and has an element of redemption when Santa Claus has magician Professor Hinkle, whose magic hat animates Frosty, craft apology letters for his earlier selfish actions and promises him a new magician's hat if he succeeds. It celebrates the innocence of childhood as well because main human Karen sees no evil in Frosty while other adults do. At one point, Frosty selflessly leaves the train with Karen, knowing he won't be able to travel to the North Pole after doing so due to seeing that she's cold inside the cold storage box and makes sure to create a fire to warm her up.
It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown! 1966 CBS N/A Near the end, Lucy Van Pelt, upon learning that her younger brother Linus has spent all night outside waiting for the titular Great Pumpkin, realizes that family matters most as she goes outside to get him back inside and then puts him in his bed, even changing his clothes to proper sleepwear.

In it, SpongeBob undoes Plankton's evil plan to turn everyone in Bikini Bottom into "Christmas hating jerks" and even turns them away from the holiday's materialism.
How the Grinch Stole Christmas 1966 CBS N/A In this animated adaptation of the children's book by Dr. Seuss of the same name, the Grinch starts out being nihilistic and hating Christmas, but ends up knowing that Christmas is about more than just gifts and ends up giving all of the presents he stole back. This can additionally be seen as showing the importance of redemption as well as the unimportance of materialism. In addition, the special adds in a scene where the newly-reformed Grinch alongside his dog attempts to rush to retrieve the sled before it falls off the cliff, nearly getting killed in the process.
The Mayflower Voyagers 1988 CBS N/A Based on the Peanuts comic strip created by Charles M. Schulz and originally an episode in the eight-part miniseries This Is America, Charlie Brown (see above), the special, as indicated by the title, deals with the Pilgrims' voyage to the New World and the first Thanksgiving therein starring various Peanuts characters in the role of the pilgrims. It's one of the only shorts that regularly receives reairings, mostly due to being bundled with A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving.
Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer 1964 NBC N/A This stop-motion animated adaptation of the Christmas song and poem of the same name follows an origin story for the title fictional reindeer as he runs away from home as a child due to discrimination based on his red nose, then returns home in adulthood to overcome this prejudice (as an allegory for overcoming racism) to ensure that Santa Claus will be able to fly his sleigh on a foggy evening. He succeeds beyond the odds by focusing his mind on his individualist goal, as does Hermie the elf when he chooses to be a dentist. The importance of family comes into play as well since Rudolph, after returning home to his parents' den and learning they themselves have left trying to find him when he fled the North Pole, attempts to find them, saving his friends in the process from the infamous Abominable Snowmonster of the North. A subtle redemption theme is present as well because the Abominable Snowmonster, after getting his teeth pulled out by Hermie to neutralize him, ultimately helps make Christmas a reality and became allied with the Elves at the North Pole. Supporting character Yukon Cornelius is a northern explorer and a model capitalist, who desires to find gold and/or silver but eventually settles for finding a peppermint mine in an exclusive deleted scene.

Title Original run Network TV rating Description
7th Heaven 1996-2007 The WB / The CW TV PG The family of a Christian minister deals with moral and controversial themes, approached from a socially and politically conservative Protestant viewpoint. It is the longest-running family drama in U.S. television history, starring Stephen Collins as the minister.[1] That being said, it does sometimes push more liberal viewpoints.
24: Legacy 2017 Fox TV 14 Although the plotline does involve fighting and showing the evils of Islamic terrorism, it delves into several leftist plot points such as a homosexual couple in the CTU, a reference to the race card, and a dig against law enforcement. Overall, this politically correct reboot was canceled after one season.
Absolutely Fabulous 1992-2012 BBC1 (UK) A hardworking teenager struggles to succeed in life despite having a feckless liberal mother (aided in her actions by her promiscuous and equally feckless best friend) and an absentee liberal father. The entire premise of the comedy is that, although the women never succeed in their wild ideas, they never really learn from their mistakes and continually repeat them. Also, in the episode "Morocco", it is strongly hinted that Saffron (the teenager) loses her virginity to a young Muslim man.
Angel 1999-2004 The WB TV-14 A spin-off of the liberal show Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Angel is more right-leaning as the show's title character is a vampire who seeks penance for the errors of his vampire ways over the course of 200-plus years by using his powers for good and stars his own detective agency, Angel Investigations (i.e. capitalism) alongside reformed former Buffy minor antagonist and main character Cordelia Chase. Season Five in particular has an anti-globalism theme.[11] That being said, the show still has some liberal moments, as Angel allies with demons and in some instances suggests they're good. Christians also are depicted as "villains" in some episodes as well.
Archer 2009-2016 (FX)
2016-present (FFX)
FX/FFX TV-MA The TV series deals with a spy for the ISIS (no relation to the real life terror group of the same name) fighting against KGB agents of what is implied to be the Soviet Union. Although, as implied by the main enemy force, the show has a condemnation against totalitarianism and Communism, the heroes also engage in some liberal values such as homosexuality and womanizing.
Ash vs. Evil Dead 2015-2018 Starz TV-MA Despite its unrealistic views on demons, it at least portrays them as evil. And while the title hero does smoke weed, in both instances it does show the disastrous results and consequences of his actions. It also portrays gun ownership in a positive light. Show's creator Sam Raimi is also a Republican[12]
Baby Blues 2000-2002 The WB
[adult swim]
TV-PG An animated adaptation of the comic strip of the same name. The show has some pro-family values in the form of the MacPhersons. That being said, however, the show has a huge amount of dysfunctional families being portrayed as comedic as well as it engaging in various liberal values-style crass humor such as some near occasions of infidelity, implied lesbianism, some dysfunctional families, a reference to a messy divorce, and an old man having trophy wives, due to executives demanding they make it more like The Simpsons (which at the time it aired was being run by Mike Scully which engaged in similar humor by that time) and the early stages of Family Guy. This resulted in most of the audience as well as the original creators of the comic strip to condemn it.
Ben 10 2005-2008 Cartoon Network TV-Y7 Ben Tennyson finds a super powered watch called the Omnitrix which allows him to turn into different alien superheroes for a brief amount of time. Using this gift, he uses it to help those in need. But the later episodes later had his cousin Gwen using witchcraft, however the show portrays them in a neutral manner as two villains named Hex and Charmcaster also use witchcraft for evil.
The Beverly Hillbillies 1962-1971 CBS Although it depicts a conservative family from the South as silly, the show powerfully illustrates how material possessions do not define a person. Buddy Ebsen stars as Jed Clampett, patriarch of the hillbilly Clampett family, who became multi-millionaires after Jed struck oil on his land in the Ozark Mountains and moved with his family to Beverly Hills, California. However, the Clampetts never let their newly obtained wealth affect who they are as people, maintaining moral and simplistic lifestyles throughout the show's run (except in a few episodes in the final season where several of the female characters fell under the influence of feminism and began pushing a feminist agenda). Irene Ryan stars as Jed's mother-in-law Daisy May "Granny" Moses; Donna Douglas plays his beautiful, tomboyish, and animal-loving daughter Elly May Clampett; Max Baer portrays the dimwitted yet good-natured Clampett cousin Jethro Bodine; Raymond Bailey plays unscrupulous banker Milburn Drysdale; and Nancy Kulp stars as Drysdale's secretary Jane Hathaway.

Popular throughout its run, The Beverly Hillbillies fell victim in 1971 to CBS' Rural Purge but has remained popular in syndicated reruns ever since and led to the 1981 reunion TV movie Return of the Beverly Hillbillies, a 1993 TV special titled The Legend of the Beverly Hillbillies, and a feature film remake of the series that same year. The film starred Jim Varney as Jed, Erika Eleniak as Elly May, Cloris Leachman as Granny, Diedrich Bader as Jethro, Dabney Coleman as Mr. Drysdale, and Lily Tomlin as Miss Hathaway, with a cameo by Buddy Ebsen (in his final acting role) as his other famous TV character, Barnaby Jones.

Breaking Bad 2008–2013 American Movie Classics TV-MA Walter White (Bryan Cranston), a previously law-abiding chemistry teacher, gets involved in drug dealing and destroys himself and his family. Though he appears to be the "hero" of the series, each immoral decision leads him further along the path of destruction, and the evildoers all suffer for their actions. An alternate ending to the series depicts Cranston in his role as Hal, the patriarch of the family on the sitcom Malcolm in the Middle, waking up and realizing that the world of Breaking Bad was all a dream.
Brooklyn Nine-Nine 2013-Present Fox TV-14 Main character Captain Holt is an open homosexual in charge of the fictitious 99th police precinct in Brooklyn, New York City. However, his sexuality is downplayed for the most part, and this sitcom seems to humanize the police in an era when liberal news media does everything it can to dehumanize the authorities. It lightheartedly teaches that the police are kind, likeable everyday people with internal and interpersonal obstacles to overcome, and it averts the liberal idea that the police are "racist" with its multiracial main cast. On top of that, a number of villains that the detectives face are drug abusers or dealers, which supports war on illegal drugs, and Sgt. Terry Jeffords, one of the main characters, is a family man who prefers to act in the best interest of his wife and daughters.
Cops 1989- Fox; Spike TV-PG The good guys protecting the public from criminals, yet arguably promotes police state and big government. Filmed on location in many exotic and mundane locales with actual law enforcement agencies, both here in the U.S. and abroad. On the other hand, the police are also clearly depicted in a positive light, which is ultimately needed especially in light of the liberal news media's current unjust demonization of them.
Friends 1994-2004 NBC TV-PG The sitcom about six young adults living in New York City. It often promotes alcoholism and sex outside marriage. But on a conservative note, the show condemns smoking and drug usage, and somewhat a condemnation of the homosexual agenda, as Ross’s life was negatively affected by his wife being lesbian. On top of that two of the characters; Ross and Monica are brother and sister, which could also give the show a pro-family aspect.
Happy Tree Friends 1999- Mondo Media.com TV-MA A very bloody and gory animated flash cartoon featuring anthropomorphic animals. Despite its content, it shows the consequences and dangers of doing many of the things that lead to the deaths of the animals within the show in most of its episodes.
Justice League 2001-2006 Cartoon Network TV-Y7 A private non-profit organization lead by American icons Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and other DC characters fight to help the helpless and fight for justice. The event where they were formed featured a condemnation towards anti-Second Amendment policies, as a senator advocates unilateral nuclear disarmament, the result of which led directly to an invasion from Mars by the Imperium (with said senator actually being an agent that took the place of the real senator during a brief incursion to Mars), with the only one who realized the problem posed by nuclear disarmament being a general. However, the later episodes did start being left-leaning (probably being bullied by left-wing producers) as there is an episode that the villain Chronos plans to go back in time to undo the Big Bang theory and become a God. Another episode, "To Another Shore", claims that "global warming" may be real.
Kim Possible 2002-2007 Disney Channel Although it was feminist due to the titular character Kim Possible tending to save the world and her sidekick Ron Stoppable generally being comic relief, it also was pro-family values, as it was notably one of the few Disney Channel shows where the fathers of the main characters (Kim and Ron) were not depicted as bumbling, buffoonish, childish, or as a jerk, and in many cases the fathers actually helped significantly to save the day. For instance, Kim Possible's dad James Possible is a friendly yet brilliant rocket scientist, and believes in family bonds, and often pushes his children to follow family values and also honor family. In addition, there were several episodes where Ron played a significant role in saving the world. It is also notable as being one of the few Disney Channel shows to actually break the 65-episode cutoff rule on the network.
King of the Hill 1997-2010 Fox TV-PG Despite cartoonish nature, shows the struggle of a hardworking, traditional American family against "alternative" modern cultural movements and liberal political correctness.
The Larry Sanders Show 1992–1998 HBO TV-MA A dark comedy based around the background of a Hollywood talk show, showing a great deal of liberal and celebrity hypocrisy and mocking them for their behavior.
Law & Order 1990-2010 NBC TV-14 Police and court drama similar to Perry Mason in which the first halves of each episodes were the crimes, investigations and arrests of suspects and the second halves were the trials and aftermaths thereof. Although ultimately promoting law enforcement in a positive light, the series eventually started pushing more liberal themes, usually by pushing twists that have the ones most likely considered guilty being in fact innocent, while white-collar characters are depicted as the villains.
MacGyver 1985-1992 ABC TV PG Angus MacGyver (Richard Dean Anderson), agent of the fictional Phoenix Foundation, uses Yankee ingenuity to solve various problems using everyday items and escape the clutches of his enemies, and he eschews violence until absolutely necessary. Although this element overall was conservative, the creator Vin Di Bona implied a few times that it was meant to promote an anti-gun agenda, which the anti-Communist site "Discover the Networks" uncovered: "MacGyver producer Vin Di Bona noted that anti-gun messages were a recurring theme in that program. When asked what he thought of conservative critics who claimed that Hollywood was overwhelmingly liberal, Di Bona responded: 'I think it’s probably accurate, and I’m happy about it.'"[13] A reboot of this series, with Lucas Till in the title role, debuted on CBS in 2016.
Malcolm in the Middle 2000-2006 FOX TV-PG The sitcom celebrates family unity and often mocks liberal values, but it also shows a dysfunctional family (containing a dimwitted father, a harridan mother, a slacker oldest son, a bullying and dimwitted second-oldest son, and a socially awkward younger son, with the genius title character, the middle of five sons, as the only sane member) as funny.
Married...with Children 1987-1997 Fox TV-PG The show mocks liberal values, however it also portrays a dysfunctional family as funny. Also the Parents Television Council called it the crudest comedy on prime time television due to being peppered with lewd punch lines about sex, sexual stimulation, the homosexual lifestyle, and father Al Bundy's fondness for pornographic magazines and strip clubs.
Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water 1990-1991 (Japan) NHK (Japan) TV-14 Add info please
The Nazis: A Warning from History 1997 BBC A six-episode documentary series that, as implied by the title, covers the rise and reign of the Nazi Party in Germany. Although overall showing the horrors of the Nazi Party and its totalitarian aspects, as well as exposing elements of Hitler's character that weren't generally known (such as his having a very disordered personal life despite his emphasis on order) and also acknowledging the Communists and Soviets have committed atrocities, the documentary, or at least the first episode, repeats leftist propaganda made post-World War II of claiming the Nazis were a far-right political party when in reality they belonged to the far left (and only being slightly to the right of German Communists/Red Front at most), and also implies in the third episode that Stalin and Hitler were ideological enemies when in reality they were closer to rivals regarding control over the left. The final episode also implied that the Soviets' rapes of German women and various atrocities were the result of the Nazis' actions, when in reality the Soviets did them according to Communist ideology, and that the Nazis' invasion of Eastern Europe had played a comparatively minor role. In addition, although it alludes to a blood red moon as foreshadowing World War II when Hitler signed the pact with Stalin, it does not directly address the connection between it and visions given in Fatima, or indeed, any religious reasons behind the red moon in question.
NCIS: Los Angeles 2008-2017 CBS TV-14 A spinoff of NCIS that, as suggested by the title, takes place in Los Angeles. Although like its parent show, it is pro-Military and deals with the same premise, it has a bit more of a liberal viewpoint to the show, and infamously had an episode during the fourth season that dealt with the team trying to investigate a political murder during an election despite it being outside their jurisdiction. One particular episode "History", also in the fourth season, has a condemnation of student radicals, many of whom were parroting statements by socialist organizations, with a professor being involved who had been formerly a member of the Gun Barrel Party, a Weathermen Underground-esque domestic terrorist group from the 1970s that was explicitly stated to be named after Mao Zedong's statement about how "political power derives from the barrel of a gun" who used the faking of his death to undergo a new identity to try and teach generations to undergo his radical beliefs, and was largely depicted in an unsympathetic light, although it does falsely claim that the Occupy Wall Street crowd of not being terrorists despite it airing around the time of the Cleveland bridge bombing crisis that OWS was tied to.
NCIS: New Orleans 2013-2017 CBS TV-14 A spinoff of NCIS that, as suggested by the title, takes place in New Orleans. Although like its parent show, it is pro-Military and deals with the same premise, it has a bit more of a liberal viewpoint to the show (although not to the extent of NCIS: Los Angeles).
The Office 2005-2013 NBC TV-PG Mockery of liberal ideology and political correctness in an office setting, without a liberal laugh track. The main character repeatedly encounters contradictions and absurdities as he tries to conform to liberal expectations. The show was most popular when its humor was conservative, and has declined in quality and popularity as its conservative humor has been diluted. Its later seasons were notably more liberal and offensive towards religion. Steve Carell played the main character for six years and was denied an Emmy Award by liberals every time despite being by far the funniest actor on television.
The O'Reilly Factor Fox News Bill O'Reilly is like "Archie Bunker": cranky, critical, and wants government to push people around and lock 'em up. O'Reilly rarely espouses true conservative values, and was extremely vicious towards pro-life Cardinal Bernard Law. O'Reilly alienates millions of young people.
Pokémon 1997- TVTokyo (1997-present; Japan only); UPN-69 (1998-1999); Kids WB (1999-2007); Cartoon Network (2007-2016); Disney XD (2016-present) An anime adapted from a series of hugely popular trading cards and video games. The first few seasons showcased several conservative messages, including the strife to succeed even when the odds are considered insurmountable, as well as showing parental neglect and abandonment in a negative light in regards to the characters Brock and Misty, and to a certain extent one of the main villains Jessie. In addition, in the first season at least, there were also a few Christian references from Brock and Misty, and to some extent James. Pro-family values are present due to Misty becoming a mother to Togepi, and Brock also intending to aid his family when his parents weren't around due to the latter abandoning their children (or, in the case of the dub, the father abandoning them and the mother dying), only joining Ash after his father, Flint, returned and encouraged Brock to pursue his dreams. Was also anti-Hollywood Values as well, as the episode "Go West Young Meowth" showcases the more depraved nature of Hollywood, including at least one bickering couple, and does not treat it in a positive light, nor does Meowth's sweetheart, Meowzie, an epitome of Hollywood values, come across in a flattering light, with it also being heavily implied that this was the reason Meowth turned to villainy. Similarly, another episode during the first season dealt with a condemnation of fashion industry values as Team Rocket created a salon that heavily dolled up various Pokémon without taking into account their nature, which Suzie, Ash, and Brock condemned, and Misty initially supported to an extent only to pay the price later on when she tried to have Psyduck dolled up. One episode of DP also has an implicit condemnation of the homosexual agenda due to Brock calling Pikachu and Piplup (both of whom are confirmed male in an earlier episode) having an attraction to each other "unnatural." In addition, some episodes implicitly condemn the concept of Social Darwinism by showing various trainers who care only about Pokémon who are powerful and instantly abandon them if they show any sign of weakness in a very negative light. However, during later seasons, the conservative elements are pushed to the side and seem to promote more liberal agendas, including having the various female characters starting with May (most of whom are ten years old and thus still children) essentially act as sexual fanservice according to then-director Masamitsu Hidaka (and, at least in the case of the female leads of AG, DP, and XY, their goals of acting as Pokémon Coordinator and Showcase Trainer seemed to promote fashion industry values), as well as later on the story's refusal to allow Ash to win a league despite it being necessary to have him become a Pokémon Master (with the most infamous example of this being the Ash vs. Alain fight in the final round of the Kalos League, which had Ash losing against Alain despite the series, including the actual Japanese episode title for the battle in question, all but strongly implying the exact opposite), and eventually by Sun and Moon delaying having Ash resume his goal until nearly 40 episodes later, thus resulting in a more nihilistic view of Ash's goal. In addition, a running gag since Hoenn and to some extent Johto has Brock constantly chasing women and trying to ask them out, depicting him as a womanizer in a more comedic light. Moreover, the concept of friendships that was strongly emphasized in prior seasons eventually got phased out due to them essentially dropping characters after each season with barely a reference to them.
Police Woman 1974-1978 NBC While some may say it was made to popularize the feminist movement, it still does treat law enforcement with respect. Also, the episode "Flowers of Evil" did seem to anger liberals as it had a trio of lesbians who run a retirement home who rob and murder the elderly residents (an action that could never be shown on TV in the current age of political correctness).
Portlandia 2011 – 2018 IFC Although it does mock conservative values, at the same time, it also openly mocks liberal values and exposes the hypocrisy apparent in those who adhere to liberalism.
The PowerPuff Girls 1998-2005, Reboot 2016-Present Cartoon Network TV-Y On the one hand, the three titular superhero girls seem to be the only protagonists capable of fighting their city’s various supervillains, while the police, consisting mostly of men, are depicted as bumbling and oafish, making the girls feministic (It doesn’t help that one of the working names for the trio was the more profane Whoop*** Girls). Moreover, innuendoes may be peppered throughout (and are more apparent in the 2016 reboot series, much to the chagrin of even the most devoted fans).

On the other hand, as the girls were created by a scientist to be the “perfect little girls,” they could be more feminine rather than feminist. They try to fit into traditional gender roles despite their capabilities, Buttercup especially struggles with this, and they learn family values from the professor who made them and serves as a responsible, knowledgeable, benevolent father-figure and a voice of reason well-versed in various scientific disciplines. Plus, the recurring antagonist “Him” is an obvious reference to Satan, which hints at support for Christianity; and the devilish fiend is an androgynous being who demonstrates some effeminate traits, which unsympathetically depicts and satirizes gender confusion and homosexual lifestyles, respectively. In addition, a villain of the week, "Femme Fatale", was meant to be a condemnation towards the feminist ideology. On occasion, such as in the episode Cop Out, does show the girls working with police, in this episode's case, against corrupt officer Mike Brokowski, who blames them for his lazy habits that get him fired, actively trying to kill them. (fortunately for them, they are immune to acid).

Sailor Moon 1992-1997 (Japan) Fuji TV NR The series is (in)famous for its promotion of homosexuality with Kunzite/Zoicite and Uranus/Neptune (the former being changed to a heterosexual couple during the initial English localisation (Zoicite was changed to female due to having a slightly more feminine appearance) the latter relationship being altered during localization to them being "cousins", which despite the dubbing company omitting the kissing element, ends up implying that they were committing incest in the dub) and transgenderism with the Sailor Starlights. (it should be noted in the original manga, Kunzite and Zoicite were not romantically involved at all, having a more brotherly relationship, the original plan being that the four Shitennou to be romantically involved with the Inner Senshi, and the Sailor Starlights were simply female who disguised themselves as men as part of a plan to save their princess, the latter of which irritated creator Naoko Takeuchi slightly). On the other hand, it is also pro-family, as Usagi Tsukino (Sailor Moon) has very loving and caring parents whom she loves very much, though they do understandably scold about her grades. Rei Hino (Sailor Mars) is also very close to her grandfather, often taking care of him due to his advanced age. Ami Mizuno (Sailor Mercury) admires her doctor mother and wishes to follow in her mother’s footsteps and is also very hurt by her parents being divorced and the fact she only hears from her artist father once a year. Also, when Usagi and Mamoru Chiba’s (Tuxedo Mask) future daughter Chibi-Usa is introduced, she is shown to be very close to her parents and present-day Usagi and Mamoru take care of her like a little sister.

The series also contains themes of unconditional love, friendship, mercy, and redemption. Usagi and Rei tend to bicker and get into cranky arguments, but they still really care about each other. The recurring Dark Kingdom Villain Nephrite disguises himself as a human named "Masato Sanjouin" and one of Usagi's friends, Naru, falls in love with him. Naru still loves him even after learning who he really is and eventually, he falls in love with her. Nephrite ultimately sacrifices his life by intercepting an attack that was meant for Naru. In the second season (Sailor Moon R) both sets of villains (The Makai Tree Aliens and the Black Moon Clan) have very distorted understandings of what love is. The Sailor Senshi teach them what real love is. With the Makai Tree Aliens, it’s that love is given, not taken. With the Black Moon Clan they show the Four Specter Sisters that love is unconditional after each of them feels the rejection of their superiors and loses hope. Eventually, all four sisters become good after Sailor Moon uses her crystal to purify them of their dark energy.

The series also goes against the messages of modern feminism in that it promotes traditional femininity and traditional female interests. Even the most Tomboyish Senshi, Makoto Kino (Sailor Jupiter) is shown to have feminine interests such as cooking, gardening and figure skating, admitting to Usagi she took up her hobbies to get by since her parents died when she was young and so she wouldn't be as intimidating, due to being the tallest girl in her class as well as rumors she got kicked out of her old school for fighting (these rumors weren't true, she simply moved to a new town). Usagi also desires to get married and have a family with her boyfriend Mamoru which they do in the future as evidenced by their daughter, Chibi-Usa. Although Mamoru is 7 years older than Usagi, he is a gentleman and doesn’t take advantage of her youth and inexperience. As Tuxedo Mask, he is very protective of Sailor Moon, and she is very appreciative of his protection (in contrast to a feminist who would refuse male help).

Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! 1969-1970, 1978 CBS; ABC TV-G Although it does teach kids conjugated thinking skills, most of the villains are businessmen which some could argue is an anti-capitalism statement. In addition, the theme song was meant to subtly promote a pro-drug message.
Scorpion 2013-2017 CBS A show involving four geniuses who try to use their gifts to prevent global catastrophes as well as figure out how to live among normal society in their spare time that's loosely based on the life of Walter O'Brien. It promotes the concept of using one's innate skills for good, as well as improving oneself, with one episode in the series also mocking professor values as well as the current university system. The first season also has some negative views on government encroachment due to Walter being reluctant to allow Scorpion to be used by Homeland due to them using stuff against his intention. Also has some pro-family values, due to Paige, one of the members of Scorpion, trying to be a good mother for her genius son, and Walter doing whatever he can to save his terminally-ill sister during the first couple of seasons, as well as Sylvester, another member of Scorpion, proceeding to legally marry (albeit in a civil rather than religious manner) his sister to stop Walter from unnecessarily keeping her alive against his sister's wishes, and Toby and Happy also making every effort to welcome their baby into the world due to believing the latter to be pregnant. In addition, one recent episode has Scorpion pitching in to aid in allowing Toby, upon it being discovered that he has a rare genetic defect that prevents him from having viable sperm to allow him and Happy to have a baby, to undergo treatment to allow them to have a child, specifically stating that they wished to ensure future members of Scorpion were born, which likewise hinted at a pro-life message and supporting the unborn. In addition, some of the main villains have also been Communists and various terrorist groups. On the other hand, it also has at times engaged in some more liberal themes such as environmentalism as well as some denouncement of Capitalism in later seasons.
The Simpsons 1987-1988 (The Tracey Ullman Show); 1989-present FOX TV-14 Many businessmen are made out to be dumb, Republicans have at times been depicted as evil, and family values aren't necessarily put in the best light. However, it still mocks liberal values as well as political correctness (including even showing the Democrats, via Springfield mayor and JFK wannabe Joe Quimby, as the corrupt and incompetent politicians they really are, although that being said, the character Lisa Simpson has occasionally been used as a soundboard for the more liberal views of the show), and although Bart Simpson causes a lot of trouble, he is painted out to be a "punk" rather than a "cool dude". This show is also known for being not as bad as the wretched Family Guy. The show was originally a series of short skits on The Tracey Ullman Show.
Smallville 2001-2011 The WB; The CW TV-PG / TV-14 Some conservative themes are present in the show and some liberal themes are present. Biblical undertones are present such as main character appearing as a Christ-like figure.
The Sopranos 1997; 1999-2007 HBO Although the TV series glamorizes to some extent the Italian mafia and its exploits, it also is pro-family values ultimately due to the main protagonist Tony Soprano trying to do what is best for his family, and one episode, "Christopher", has a condemnation of Howard Zinn's A People's History of the United States, in particular the book and the public school system's demonization of Christopher Columbus.
SpongeBob SquarePants 1996-present Nickelodeon TV-Y / TV-Y7 One of the most influential cartoons of the 21st century, centered on an energetic, anthropomorphic sea sponge (who more nearly resembles a kitchen sponge) and a diverse cast of his underwater friends, is decidedly one of the most politically ambiguous.

On the one hand, the series suggests that capitalists are inherently malign or simply obsessed with money, as the main character’s crustacean employer, the fast food restaurateur Mr. Krabs, is inclined to put money before others’ interests, sometimes at the expense of others’ well-being. In addition, SpongeBob and his dimwitted seastar best friend Patrick Star have a habit of annoying Squidward Tentacles, a grouchy octopus who lives between them, and tend to not face comeuppance for their childish actions (though there are exceptions), which may teach that being annoying is “acceptable” adult behavior. Specific episodes have controversial overtones, too. For instance, “Rock-a-Bye Bivalve” is infamous for depicting SpongeBob and his dimwitted seastar best friend Patrick Star raising a baby scallop like a homosexual couple. Moreover, one of the series’ worst-received episodes, “One Coarse Meal,” tries to make bullying look humorous because it centers on Mr. Krabs driving his microscopic arch business rival Plankton to suicide by appealing to the copepod’s secret fear of whales, a fear not present in any other episode. Worst of all, there is a theory that each of the seven main characters is modeled after one of the Seven Deadly Sins: Mr. Krabs is avarice for his love of money. Plankton is envy because he desires after that which Mr. Krabs has: a successful restaurant and the secret formula for Krabs’ signature sandwich, the Krabby Patty. Squidward is wrath due to his irritability. Sandy Cheeks the diving suit-clad squirrel is pride as she is immensely proud of her native Texas. Patrick is sloth since he is often seen dormant. Gary, SpongeBob’s pet sea snail, is gluttony because his character has little to do other than eat. SpongeBob is a strange variant on lust: though the character is said to be asexual, he seems to have “lust for life” because, depending on the writer(s), he can be too fixated on his job (or even on Squidward) at times.

On the other hand, most episodes where SpongeBob works in his regular job as a fry cook at the Krusty Krab restaurant teach young audiences to take pride in hard work and persistence as SpongeBob strives to make the most out of his rather ordinary vocation. Most episodes where Plankton appears draw a clear distinction between good and evil, showing the errors of stealing and conducting business through illegitimate means as Plankton’s schemes to outcompete Mr. Krabs, the more competent businessman, or steal his Krabby Patty recipe backfire. Lastly, depending on the writer(s), Krabs can serve as a surrogate father-figure to SpongeBob, teaching him to stay out of danger and not to act so impulsively as he usually does. In addition, one episode advocates against gun control and showing the fallacy against the premise,[14] and another episode promotes self-sufficiency and mocks the welfare state.[15]

Squirrel and Hedgehog 1977 (North Korea) YouTube (Outside North Korea) NR The cartoon was created by the North Koreans as unsubtle propaganda for their Communist ideology, and in particular promoting the Kim Dynasty, and also showcases a significant amount of bloodshed by the heroes. That being said, however, its style in trying to propagate Communist values also unintentionally ends up promoting American and Western values due to the main villains, several wolves and other carnivorous creatures, being depicted as extremely competent and imposing and wielding high-tech weaponry, as well as the "heroes", despite being shown as herbivorous animals, being shown as particularly violent, as well as being more effeminate and crying a lot of the time thus unintentionally exposing the real horrors of communist ideology as well, with several of the viewers when it aired outside North Korea nearly forty years afterwards liking the villains more than the heroes and specifically citing how the villains were depicted as extremely competent as a reason.
Stargate: SG-1 1997-2007 Sci-fi A sequel series to the film Stargate, most of its main villains were extraterrestrials who posed as various pagan gods (namely Greek, Roman, Egyptian, and Babylonian), and Colonel O'Neill was implied to be religious a few times. It is also to be noted that the Christian God is noted to be exempted from the main villains. That being said, however, it does occasionally mix up the Middle Ages with the Dark Ages, and in later seasons it does make a few jabs at then-President George W. Bush.
Supergirl (first season only) 2015–2016 CBS (first season) The show had some liberal elements, such as promoting the feminist agenda to some extent, and also having a degree of forced multiculturalism (e.g., turning Jimmy Olsen into a black man when he was originally a red-headed Caucasian in the comics). However, it also has some conservative elements to the show, namely pro-family messages, as well as the character Cat Grant in one episode expressing some regret for the fact that, when she got pregnant out of wedlock, she chose her career over her child (it should be noted that this would have been against the feminist agenda, since adherents to feminism generally reject any indication that a woman can't be satisfied by anything besides a career, especially being satisfied with having children and/or holding any remorse for giving up their child in favor of their careers.). The same episode also had her trying to reconnect with her child, who by that time was an adult, with Kara Danvers suggesting she reconnect with him, giving the implication that she ultimately carried him to birth despite choosing her career over her child, acting as a subtle condemnation towards abortion and a promotion of the right to life. In addition, environmentalism is depicted in a more negative manner due to the main villains, surviving Kryptonian prisoners at Fort Rozz, being sentenced there due to engaging in environmental terrorism in an attempt to save Krypton, and Kara Zor-El's uncle, Non, being an unrepentant mass murderer. It also has a condemnation of terrorism as well as crime, as most of the first season's story arc dealt with locating and stopping various Fort Rozz escapees from causing any carnage on Earth, with most of the criminals being portrayed negatively, and even the sole Fort Rozz villain who does end up being portrayed sympathetically is made clear to have given up crime, subtly promoting the concept of redemption. The DEO also acts as a subtle allegory to ICE agents and border patrol and is portrayed as largely a force of good, which also hints at a promotion of national borders. The two-part season finale also dealt with the main villains' plan, Myriad, which involved mass mind-control which likewise had those affected by it making statements that eerily paralleled the statements made by liberal ideology.[16] Note that this only applies with the first season of Supergirl, as starting with the second season upon its move to the CW, it went hard-left in its political and social views (see its entry in Worst Liberal TV Shows for more information).
SWAT Kats 1993-1994 TBS Chance Furlong and Jake Clawson are two former Enforcer (the show's name for the police) pilots who are wrongfully blamed for destroying Enforcer Headquarters when their boss, Commander Feral wants the glory of taking down the villain Dark Kat by himself and causes their plane to crash. As punishment, they are sentenced to work in a salvage yard to pay back the cost of the building. Using the military salvage in the junk yard, the build their own jet called the Turbokat and become the crime-fighting SWAT Kats, T-bone and Razor. The series de-values law enforcement by depicting the Enforcers as impotent against the city's many threats. The Enforcers' leader, Commander Ulysses Feral, is depicted as an egotistical glory-hog and hates the SWAT Kats for being able to accomplish what he can't. Sometimes the SWAT Kats even like to rudely rub it in his face. The series also promotes feminism by depicting Megakat City's male Mayor Manx as bumbling and incompetent while depicting the female Deputy Mayor Calico "Callie" Briggs as the one who truly runs the city (and also the SWAT Kats main ally, similar to Commissioner Gordon from Batman). The series also added a token female Enforcer, Commander Feral's niece Felina Feral in the second season, and depicting her as being more competent and reasonable than the other Enforcers.

That being said, however, the series also promotes themes of justice, heroism, and voluntary charity (since the SWAT Kats don't get paid for their heroism) and condemns crime. In the second season, Commander Feral's negative aspects were toned down and the character was depicted positively more often. The series is also pro-family as it shows Commander Feral having genuine love for Felina as well as concern for her safety. Felina also respects her uncle, even though she doesn't always agree with him. In contrast to other elements which promote feminism, the episode "Cry Turmoil" paints feminism in a more negative light with the villainess Turmoil and her all-female soldiers and pilots, of whom she believes no male pilot can out-fly until they engage the SWAT Kats. After capturing the Turbokat, she attempts to seduce T-Bone into joining her and becoming her second-in-command, which he only pretends to go along with it so that he can sabotage her ship and give Razor time to meet up with him. The episode also contains a theme of resisting evil temptation since T-bone admits being attracted to her in his inner monologue, and even remarks that "the Enforcers haven't exactly been our biggest fans."

The Twilight Zone 1959-1964 (original run) CBS A recurring theme is that the selfish and the self-centered eventually lose what they sought to gain; hosted by Rod Serling. Examples of conservative episodes include:
  • "The Prime Mover" (episode 57, March 24, 1961)[17]
  • "The Obsolete Man" (episode 65, June 2, 1961) Sentenced to death by a totalitarian government that outlawed both books and religion, Burgess Meredith's character turns to his faith and his bible to console him
  • "The Mirror" (episode 71, October 20, 1961), a scathing criticism of Communism and the Fidel Castro regime in Cuba; starred a pre-Columbo Peter Falk as Ramos Clemente, a Latin American Communist revolutionary-turned-dictator based on Castro.

That being said, there are some examples of episodes that have some liberal and conservative messages being promoted at the same time:

  • "He's Alive" (episode 106, January 24, 1963), it depicts the Neo-Nazi movement and Hitler in a very negative light. Although that being said, it also falsely implies that Hitler is the most evil person to have ever existed in the world, being comparable to Satan, when in reality, there were people far more evil and brutal than Hitler such as Mao Zedong and Josef Stalin, and various Communist dictators.
You're Not Elected, Charlie Brown 1972 CBS An animated Peanuts special that aired before the 1972 presidential elections. On the one hand, it does show the electoral process in a fairly positive manner, but on the other hand, it does feature some elements of liberal values such as forcing people to vote for a particular candidate (specifically, one scene had Lucy threatening people to vote for Linus), and was largely cynical in its outlook.
