“The joy for me of television is the sort of family feeling of being involved with an ensemble - the cast and the crew and the director of photography and the guys in the camera truck - and you're all coming together. There's a great feeling when that is a successful unit, a successful family.” FeelingsTogetherJoyGuySuccessfulTelevisionInvolvedDirectorsPhotographyCamerasCastsUnitsCrewTruckEnsembleComing TogetherGreat Feelings Author:Jeffrey Pierce
“Successful prime-time television of any genre produces some kind of emotional reaction in the viewers. There are a lot of different emotions to tap into. The emotion of the reward of discovery, the feeling of righteous anger, the feelings of pathos and sadness, or sentimentality of being moved by something.” KindDifferentFeelingsEmotionSuccessfulSadnessProduceTelevisionEmotionalDiscoveryMovedRewardsReactionsGenrePrimeRighteousViewersSentimentalityPathosPrime TimeEmotional ReactionsDifferent EmotionsRighteous Anger Author:Chris Hayes
“This is what I give. I give an expression of care every day to each child, to help him realize that he is unique. I end each program by saying, 'You've made this day a special day by just your being you. There's no person in the whole world like you. And I like you just the way you are.' And I feel that if we in public television can only make it clear that feelings are mentionable and manageable, we will have done a great service.” IfsWorldWayGivingFeelsChildrenPersonsMadeEndsDoneWholeHelpingFeelingsCareRealizingClearSpecialTelevisionExpressionLike YouUniqueProgramWhole WorldThis DayI Like YouManageableGreat Service Author:Fred Rogers
“Sentimentalising is anathema, as far as I am concerned. It leads you into ethical problems about violence and killing and eating meat. The whole world becomes topsy-survy if you impose moralities that were evolved within human society on what a blowfly or what a parasite does... there are lots of emotions you can deduce from an animal's behaviour that are correct, but when you start saying it's feeling guilty or thinking or a loved one or mourning, you must be very careful of those feelings.” IfsThinkingWorldHumansDoeWholeFeelingsProblemAnimalEmotionViolenceTelevisionMoralityEatingConcernedKillingCarefulWhole WorldGuiltyMeatMourningEthicalLoved OnesBehaviourHuman SocietyParasitesEating MeatFeeling GuiltyAnathema Author:David Attenborough
“It's all about media culture and people on television, and that feeling comfortable, friendly, or warm toward a candidate [in the elections] is a reason people would emotionally attach themselves to that candidate.

“I think what people watch television for is the emotional continuity, from episode to episode, and feeling that the experience that they had, four episodes ago, has actually been building to an episode that comes later, and knowing that the characters are growing, as a result of that, and making mistakes, is really, really important to the way people connect to television.” PeopleThinkingWayImportantCharacterFeelingsResultsMistakeWatchesKnowingFourGrowingTelevisionBuildingEmotionalMaking MistakesEpisodesContinuity Author:Alex Kurtzman
“Maybe if I'd gone in younger, I wouldn't have had that feeling, but I've seen an enormous amount of changes since the early-'70s in how this stuff is shot. I did the first TV movie ever shot in 18 days; before this film the normal length of shooting a TV movie was between 21 and 26 days. We shot a full-up, two-hour TV movie in 18 days with Donald Sutherland playing the lead, who had never worked on television before.” IfsFirstsTwoFeelingsFilmStuffHoursGoneTelevisionTvsAmountNormalShotsEnormousShootingLength Author:Richard Masur
