Fifty years ago even though much of America had TV NOT EVERYONE could afford it? Simple entertainment brought the public out en masse! Especially those venues that were potentially FREE OR CLOSE TO FREE? If U could afford to entertain ur neighbors U were ELEVATED TO A HIGHER STATUS. Simple minds are ENTERTAINED by SIMPLE ENTERTAINMENT which explains this program.
Someone else mentioned the WRITER - Ray Bradbury! Had to read "Something Wicked This Way Comes" for English Class in High School late 1970's. It wasn't horribly gorry or anything such as that but kinda like watching Andy Griffith Show about attending a Carnival but with Supernatural overtones or a true dark side? Entertainment that actually makes U use ur brain UNLIKE MUCH OF CURRENT EARLY 21st Century Film/TV.
