Waiting for my old job to end, and my new job to begin, I've been watching a lot of YouTube. I found Ba Ba Black Sheep... Besides the name changes and other numerous Hollyweird story elements, I heard something that I thought was pretty odd...
In the 2nd season, there's an episode "Sheep in the Limelight". One of the pilots is injured during a dog flight. He manages to land, and is pulled out of the smoking plane unconscious. Like many shows from the day, no blood is visible on him, yet a nurse calls out for 15 units of blood for him. A unit of blood is 1 pint, and the average human body has only 10... Dang, I guess this guy was feeling a bit drained.
So, what other TV shows have you going to Google to check facts?
Oh, and Dr. Charles R. Drew, the African American doctor who is credited with developing improved methods for blood storage did not die from being refused admittance to a "white only" hospital following a automotive collision as cited in an episode of M*A*S*H.
