Historically, more media has been consumed sitting in front of the television than any other device. Controlling this screen has been the goal of major technology, consumer electronic, and telecommunications companies.

TV has grown so much. It is like a powerhouse medium.

Television has done a lot for me, and I can never stay away from it.

TV is just such a fast-moving medium that you do what you can do, and what you can't do, you don't worry about too much.

Television can be a very fickle place.

TV is a major force in our lives - a FORCE. It must be handled very carefully, both its censure and its artistic honesty.

Television is an isolating experience, sadly enough. I'm sorry to say it. But as good as it ever gets, it's still isolating. You sit in your home and visit with no one.

Television is just one more facet of that considerable segment of our society that never had any standard but the soft buck.

Once typecast as the indispensable altarpiece of a well-appointed living room, TVs have infected every human environment. The average American household has more television sets than people.

While television is a good servant, it's a bad master. It can swallow up huge quantities of our lives without much happiness bang for the buck.
