Why should I know who Kirk Cameron is, or care what he says?  Seems to me like a garden-variety kook whining that his religion is no longer supported by the state.  I've seen plenty of those already, and this one adds nothing new to the discussion as far as I can tell.

I guess it was after your time. You know, when tv was already in color.

I take it that this was a sitcom?

Pretty much all sitcoms came out after I had outgrown them at age ten or so (the Carol Burnett Show was NOT a sitcom).  If it wasn't a sitcom, I assumed that it was and ignored it.

In any case, why would an actor's opinion be worth posting about?

The later stuff, with the banana and the peanut butter (aka the "Evolutionists' Nightmare") videos I have seen before.  They are quite funny without knowing that one of the presenters is a former child star.

You haven't heard of "Growing Pains"? Hell, even I heard of it. I haven't watched it though - I understand it was awful a classic 80s' sitcom.

I don't know that we are supposed to care, but people discuss the opinions of actors all the time.

Kirk Cameron is a moron; film at 11.

BTW, he's wrong about the prayer and bible thing- kids can pray or read the bible on their own as long as it doesn't disrupt class activity.
