We weren't allowed to watch TV as kids.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I was only allowed only to watch public television until I was 12 years old.
We didn't have a TV until I was 12.
When I was younger, I didn't want to be on TV.
I don't think it's realistic to say kids shouldn't watch any TV. I just wish the shows would be better. And that kids would watch less. Get out there and do things, kids! Don't become couch potatoes!
Kids aren't growing up with a sense of television as the aspirational place for their ideas.
Me personally, I wouldn't put my kids on television. But to each his own.
Well, we certainly weren't making a cartoon show for kids. It was a completely different kind of idea.
I didn't watch a lot of TV growing up.
You know, we were worried that in the UK, there's no anarchy on kids TV. When we grew up kids TV was very anarchic and it was about stuff that your parents would probably object to, if they got to object. And it's gotten very safe.
When you watch the sitcoms that were the big hits when I was growing up, TV was still just TV. It was allowed to just be TV. There were three channels that were competing for the whole family and you couldn't take your business elsewhere.
