As a kid I used to like this show simply because it was a lighthearted comedy. After a while, my father (a former U.S. Marine) forbade it to be watched because he hated it so much. When we whined, "..buy WHYYYYYYYYYY....???", I clearly remember him stating: "That guy is a DISGRACE to the Marine Corps."
End of story. Gomer Pyle was history in our house from that moment on.
Of course, this was in the days when most houses had only ONE tv!!
