...Over the years we have seen many great television shows as well as some bad ones come and go. The reason for this was that although they may have been good for the time being they were not ones that would be expected to last throughout history. Some of these shows were Freaks and Geeks which only lasted one season and Arrested Development which lasted 3 seasons. That being said they were never something that the fans actually felt the need to want reruns, they were always on to the next best thing. Some television shows just could not contend with the ones that had emerged previously in history. This is because in the early years of production were the television shows that set the precedents for what television is today. One of the most well-known shows that changed the future of television for centuries to come happened to be one of the very first’s sitcoms to air on television, “I Love Lucy”. This popular television show emerged in the fifties and set the stone for what comedy should be. This show was clever and original at the same time for all of the ridiculousness that took place. Many shows that have followed were surprisingly big hits but none could leave an impact like “I Love Lucy”. This is because it “is legitimately the most influential in TV history, pioneering so many innovations and normalizing so many others that it would be easy to write an appreciation of simply, say, the show’s accidental invention of the TV rerun.”(VanDerWerff) Audiences of all ages are attracted...

...Bloodlines of Illuminati by: Fritz Springmeier, 1995 Introduction: I am pleased & honored to present this book to those in the world who love the truth. This is a book for lovers of the Truth. This is a book for those who are already familiar with my past writings. An Illuminati Grand Master once said that the world is a stage and we are all actors. Of course this was not an original thought, but it certainly is a way of describing the Illuminati view of how the world works. The people of the world are an audience to which the Illuminati entertain with propaganda. Just one of the thousands of recent examples of this type of acting done for the public was President Bill Clinton’s 1995 State of the Union address. The speech was designed to push all of the warm fuzzy buttons of his listening audience that he could. All the green lights for acceptance were systematically pushed by the President’s speech with the help of a controlled congressional audience. The truth on the other hand doesn’t always tickle the ear and warm the ego of its listeners. The light of truth in this book will be too bright for some people who will want to return to the safe comfort of their darkness. I am not a conspiracy theorist. I deal with real facts, not theory. Some of the people I write about, I have met. Some of the people I expose are alive and very dangerous. The darkness has never liked the light. Yet, many of the secrets of the Illuminati are locked up tightly simply because secrecy is a way...
