Randy, abortion plots (though rare) aren’t 98 percent predictable. In May, WB’s drama series “Everwood” (paired with the long-running family hit “Seventh Heaven”) had an abortion plotline. The show’s main character, a widower/doctor, could not perform an abortion after losing his wife. But another doctor, the town “conservative,” emerged to perform the heroic termination because he promised his father never to let the town return to the “horrors” of pre-Roe America. This doctor warned that performing abortions could get you killed in a small town. In between commercials, WB even displayed Planned Parenthood info. You’re right that pop culture has improved a bit away from straight-ahead propaganda on this issue, but TV’s way of building acceptance for nearly every other form of sin is no cause for great optimism.
