Flashback: Focus on the Cock

Little known, and for some reason not on IMDB, was an early television show called Focus on the Cock. It was a syndicated documentary-style show airing from 1962-1975, hosted by Walter Cronkite. Not famed newscaster Walter Cronkite, but the other Walter Cronkite.

Each week, he would show pornographic images to viewers hungry for cock, starting off each broadcast with simply, "Welcome. It's time to focus on the cock." For most of the audience, that came naturally, but in their everyday life, they had to hold back from focusing on the cock, say on the street, else potentially get socked in the mouth. As opposed to the more preferable activity of being cocked in the mouth.

So this show was a safe space to focus on the cock from the privacy of one's own home, or at the laundromat if their were enough like-minded patrons at the time to not force the channel to be switched to golf.

But like the models that appeared, this show has been lost to history. Though science showed it was responsible for preventing many divorces, as it kept people from marrying as a cover for their homosexuality, thus preventing divorce. That later became known as the Baywatch Effect, a phenomenon in which people masturbated to the hunks on lifeguard swimsuit-fest Baywatch, instead of seeking out fraudulent heterosexual marriage.

So as you look upon these pictures, remember the history you are a part of. Safely staring at cock from the privacy of your own home, office, or the nonprivacy of a bus (if you want to get caught by a hunk looking over your shoulder),

Someone needs to film a reunion special.
