EmmyOk posted:I've been watching Yes, Minister and in many way's it's aged incredibly well. It's from the 1980s but it had an episode about a Big Brother style database and it was amazing how similar it was to discussions around privacy and security around the time of the Snowden leaks and still now. However every now and then it has a drunk driving scene that's treated as funny and just a bit cheeky. Obviously that's something that was acceptable back then it just stands out all the more for how ahead of its time so many of its episodes are. I thought this was a great Yes Minister bit which hasn't aged a day. The episode where the PM outsmarts the Foreign Office to send a military intervention to heroically save the day in a developing country is probably an example that fits in this thread though.
