Although TAGS was made several years ago, it is still the modern era to which we can relate to many things, but there have also been many advancements since then.
Are there any episodes due to modern technology, political correctness, different customs, or whatever the case may be, that would totally alter the plot of an episode, certain scenes, or perhaps cause it to not be able to even exist if filmed today?
One that comes to my mind is "Man In a Hurry." In that episode, due to his car breaking down, he was stranded. That just wouldn't happen today if a business man had to get to an important meeting.
Today, he would simply get out his cell phone and arrange to be picked up, end of story. If his cell were dead, he could at least get a land-line; there is no place today where a land-line would be tied up by two old women all day.
Keep in mind, I'm not asking just to list changes; we could list a ton of those, but ones that alter the plot, scene, or episode altogether. Something that could hardly even be tweaked to work today.
