You're Pretty High And Far Out, Son.

I've always loved watching old TV Shows as they try to tackle "new" phenomena. Take this 1967 episode of "Dragnet" when Friday and Gannon try to crack a case involving the hippies and their LSD. Jack Webb must've thrown a couple of middle-aged screenwriters in a room with a Beatles album and a run of MAD Magazines and told them not to come out until they'd channeled Pete Seeger. They might as well have been writing about life on the moon.
