Why? Because it's good old-fashioned television without politics and the doom-and-gloom we witness on TV these days. After all, what could be more fun to watch than a ‘rhinestone plowboy,’ which is what Roy calls Donny after Donny shows off his bedazzled cowboy boots?
But the fun is just beginning.
