Teachers at my junior high school often complained about the state of television. In Lance Kerwin's show, James at 16, the title character has unprotected sex. The writers wanted to show him buying condoms but the network refused to show teenagers planning to have sex.
Kerwin died yesterday at age 62.
He had a more troubled life than I would have imagined, struggling with drug use until the 1990's.
