There are probably those here who have neither the time nor the inclination to watch prime time family sitcoms. But for those who do, or might try a suggestion from a forum member, I would suggest that you try "Last Man Standing" on ABC. It is a story line about a father who owns a sporting goods store, and has a lot of material, imagery, and story that includes shooting sports. I find it a refreshing change from most prime time fare which is too scared of some kind of citation from the politically correct police if they mention guns or hunting. I just sent this email to ABC, and I would suggest that others do as well, as well as pay attention to their sponsors. (They limit the characters, so make it quick.)

Dear sir,

I am taking a moment to praise your content and story of "Last Man Standing". It is refreshing to see a network run a story that doesn't mock shooting sports and hunting, as most prime time fare normally will. I shall continue to view and promote it, and give appropriate consideration to your sponsors.

Please keep it up,

I just think that if we are to be taken seriously as a demographic, the burden falls upon us to make sure that the entities that make entertainment know that we are aware, active, and supportive. Do what you want.

Very reasonable approach.

If we don't support those who support our image of ourselves we'll continue to be shown in a negative light. This is as much a culture as a political struggle we're in and neglecting the cultural aspect makes winning the political side more difficult.
