It's a Man's World Trivia:

It's a Man's World didn't simple explore the emerging 60s lifestyle changes of society, it also covered political issues and other important events of the day including the civil rights movement, the Cuban Missile Crisis and the protests on the part of youth over the increasing U.S. role in the Vietnam War.

The show gained a big following on college campuses but was not able to achieve a wider audience due to its subject matter. Many of the issues covered on the series were extremely controversial at the time. Most adults did not appreciated the anti-war and free love sentiments expressed on It's a Man's World and, therefore, wouldn't watch and wouldn't allow their children to watch.
