I actually, now that I think about it, tend to feel that Rocky was a HEALTHY response to something the average / regular person could do NOTHING about.
Red Menace? Atomic War? Doomsday? Cold War? Hot War? Tepid War?
Let's at least get a laugh out of this stuff. And don't forget that the show was aimed at both Children, being a cartoon with 'funny' characters, AND adults with some amazing puns and what may be described as Adult Themes.
later? In the 60s you had 'Dr. Strangelove' and even ' Failsafe', 2 very differenct looks at what was then current events.
The Prisoner dealt with Totalitarian themes and free will.
I'm afraid I'm very serious about 'connections'. All this stuff IS connected and in obvious and less obvious ways.
