No, there is nothing "wrong with me" because I do not share your particular taste in TV programs, and for you to even make a statement like that, makes YOU a pompous ass, not me. Obviously the show would have some regional appeal. By your own admission you were in a rust belt area where some people identified with the characters of the show, that's human nature.
I personally do not care who liked the show and who did not, nor am I judging anyone who did. It's not a big deal to me.
But you questioning my personal preferences as far as television shows, makes you someone who clearly has far too much time on their hands.
You nor me, nor anyone else "Knows what EVERYONE in America actually thought of the show", as you stated.
That is a ridiculous and illogical overstatement, because no one has the psychic ability to have such knowledge.
We have differing views of the Confederate flag and that amounts to what it is......different opinions, which has nothing to do with who watches what on television.
You are an extremely small and petty individual.
