Subject: 1998's Pleasantville/Trapped in TV Land

Written By: andersenb11775 on 02/03/19 at 10:58 pm

To me, If i were writing a Trapped in TV Land story, I'd do a period TV show where there was more restrictions on, say, women or young people.

"Pleasantville" (the show within a movie) played it for laughs but boy would a modern little girl or adolescent female be pished off at not being able to wear trousers to school or church or a job if they arrived in a 1950s drama or sitcom.
