Known for its provision of entertainment that transcends political affiliation and embodies family values, Moviebaby.com’s shows do not include sexual content, graphic violence, or inappropriate language. With subscriptions costing only $9.99 per month or $99 per year, members are able to access classic programs such as The Lucy Show and Bonanza.

The latter program was a mainstay on network television during the 1960s and lasted until 1973. Just prior to the beginning of the last season’s filming, “gentle giant” brother Dan Blocker passed away suddenly at age 43. This led Bonanza to break new ground in being the first television show that touched on the subject of a character’s death.

Reflecting Blocker’s popularity, the episode “Forever” contained several memorable references to the passion of the easygoing actor, who played Hoss. The actors were genuine in the tears cried in this episode, which achieved high ratings despite the show’s steady decline in viewership. Unfortunately, the loss of Hoss also meant that viewers had one less reason to watch a show that was past its prime and the show only made it to the end of the season.

The Health Benefits of Happy Movies

Movies can have a physiological effect on their viewers. Psychologist Birgit Wolf has argued that because movies approach us emotionally as opposed to intellectually, they can allow us to be fully present with the emotions elicited by the films without suppressing those emotions. This emotional release may have therapeutic effects.

Comedies can be especially healthy to watch because laughter lowers blood pressure, reduces stress, and boosts the immune system. Blood vessels have been shown to dilate by up to 22 percent for people who are watching comedies. Going to see a funny film might also be useful for someone who is anxious about a certain problem. The film can provide some distance and clarity and might offer a chance for a fresh perspective.

There is also some evidence that imaginative movies can improve creativity in small children. After a group of kids watched clips from a fantasy movie, they scored higher on creativity tests than kids who watched something else.
