We are being entertained all the time - in the bathroom, on the train, in our beds. Sure, there is a smaller audience for theater. But we know from radio that entertainment never goes away, it just changes. And more power to it.

To be honest, I think kids have got a lot more going on than adults. They've got their heads screwed on a lot better.

Today, children are watching more and more television, and are bombarded over and over with images and content that have the potential to dramatically influence their behavior.

We have been deformed by educational and religious institutions that treat us as members of an audience instead of actors in a drama, so we become adults who treat democracy as a spectator sport.

On the evidence I have on hand at home, social media isn't killing our children. It isn't killing families, either, because the constant long bloody phone calls that parents complained to their teenagers about in decades past are gone.

We know television should educate and inform, and I believe it should entertain.

It seems that entertainment is what most excites us and what we value above everything else.

Adults, who outnumber kids four or five to one, are in charge. We wield the resources, run the world, and completely thwart kids' creativity.

I think my primary audience is in some sense an adult audience, because I think that will then have a knock-on effect for children.

Entertainment's definition has been reduced to making people happy.
