26. They don't picture the Christian life as all sunshine and roses. (The Other Woman)
27. They went top-notch from the beginning, getting the best vocal talent they could find.
28. An awesome group of old guys that always had each others' backs.

Doris Day turned this into a hit song years after its release, and starred in a movie of the selfsame name. (1909)

MF: How much do you know about Helios?

Woody: Let's see. I know you survived her
drama, I know she's a danger to
society, I know she's a lie, I know
Belle is unfazed by her wrath, I
know she has ox horns, and I know
I should beware of her.

(And she is also my enemy. :evil: )

33. It displays, not just once, but as a constant theme, that the Christian life is truly a lifestyle. Not just to be acted out at church and then left, but to be genuinely lived. Christ in you producing Godly actions through your life just as commonly as eating or breathing.

A song written by a pro-Communist author displaying the supposed abuses of wealthy capitalists upon a Chinese immigrant. (1932)

She is actually 56, and in twenty days from this post will have celebrated her 57th birthday. She would have been 28 when she started the role, which means that she has spent a little over half of her life working on this role.

37. They have actors so dedicated to the show and their characters that they spend decades with one character.
TigerShadow wrote:Wait, why are those positives?
Think, Tiger, the character never changes, though their actor counterpart does. O.o

38. Connie remains eternally young because she is trapped in the Vortex of Time. \:D/

40. The show deals with different issues and problems Christians experience though seldom address in media.

48. It knows how to take difficult topics and create episodes about these topics that everyone, regardless of their age, can enjoy and learn from.
"Let me get this straight. I bet all those non-friends of yours try to embarrass you about your love for that stuff, right? So, you almost feel like you have to hide your treasures away and can only take them out in secret on rainy days when your mom goes to the store to get more liver and nobody is around to berate your sensitive spirit. Is that what you’re saying?" -Jay Smouse

50. Many episodes have good historical aspects, like Whit being wounded at Guadalcanal, and Whit's end being part of a church that was part of the Underground Railroad.
51. Because it isn't cheesy(most of the time) and when it is, they usually did it on purpose.

52. It is a Christian show, though not all characters are Christians. Which results in lessons of worldview and gaining perspective.
