“Apart from the seemingly magical Internet, life in broad material terms isn't so different from what it was in 1953...

“We're all being segregated or sent to our different rooms to watch television that's geared only for adults, to be honest. There's very little fare - outside of cartoons and a few things for children (and) I guess (some reality shows like) The Voice - that can be watched by the entire family.” ChildrenLittlesDifferentShowsRealityVoiceRoomsWatchesHonestTelevisionAdultsBeing HonestCartoonReality Shows Author:Michael Landon, Jr.
“I mean that's really depressing man. Of course, the kids are freaking out. They watch cartoons and sit in front of the television and their parents are just probably yuppies who focus their entire lives around the child. The child has no sense of context, no sense of what world they are inhabiting-just like this Disnified bag of Cheerios reality. Don't give them a @#$%& pill! God! Take them out on a canoe already!

“I was watching cartoons on television and a commercial came on for one of the Batman series where I played a butler. And then my grandson looked up at me and he said, "Do you know Batman?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Really," I said, "Yeah." I said I know him very well. And he told all the boys at school, he said, "My grandpa knows Batman. Does your grandpa know Batman? OK, no. Mine does.” KnowsWellsDoeSaidSchoolBoysTelevisionMinesYeahSeriesDo You KnowCartoonGrandpaButlersGrandson Author:Michael Caine
