Do you guys remember That’s So Raven? That’s So Raven, one of the few shows Disney channel did right. That’s So Raven, if you don’t remember starred Raven Symone as Raven Baxter. Let me tell you somethings about Raven Baxter; Raven Baxter wasn’t a thin girl nor did she want to be famous singer like EVERY OTHER CHARACTER ON TELEVISION TODAY. No, Raven was a girl with some extra meat on her bones that wanted to be a fashion designer and model her own work. Remember the episode where a magazine put her head on another model’s body because she didn’t have ‘the look’ and how Raven fought to change it? What happened to episodes like that, Disney Channel? Yes, That’s So Raven, despite being a show about a psychic, was the most real kids show on television. What about the episode dealing with racism when the store manager refused to hire Raven because she’s black? Or the episode dealing with drugs when Raven thought her brother, Cory, was smoking? This was a show that was popular and relatable. It didn’t feature a new song every week, it didn’t need to! The hilarious antics of the costume wearing Raven Baxter, mixed with life lessons we can actually read, made this show the best show Disney Channel came up with ever.

babygurgs: distraction: A sailor and his date enjoying a day in Central Park while he is on shore leave, 1943. nowadays all dates are in bed This is so beautiful. What happened to love and dates like this? Where things weren’t just for sex, but a reason to get to know someone. Where you wanted to delve into a deep, passionate, emotional connection with someone before you even thought of getting intimate with them. Where things didn’t have to be so serious. You just enjoyed each others’ company, you had fun sharing your youth with someone, you wanted to be with them for them, and not their body. What happened to this? I want this. This is why I want to live in a time like this.

This is so beautiful. What happened to love and dates like this? Where things weren’t just for sex, but a reason to get to know someone. Where you wanted to delve into a deep, passionate, emotional connection with someone before you even thought of getting intimate with them. Where things didn’t have to be so serious. You just enjoyed each others’ company, you had fun sharing your youth with someone, you wanted to be with them for them, and not their body. What happened to this? I want this.
