'LazyTown' is on a mission to move the world to be a healthier place. When we get kids moving, we get their families moving. And when families move, we are one step closer to moving the world. Move the body, move the mind, every day.

My message with 'LazyTown' has always been really simple; I just want to get kids and families moving together.

My philosophy is 'learn while you live.' 'LazyTown' is about balance. I'm not there yet.

Even if a media of a TV is not available in a home, there's this concept of community homes, where a reasonably well-off villager will have a TV - and a nice TV - and he'll keep it outside the house in the evenings.

Living modestly in a suburban neighborhood while trying to support four children through private school is not extravagant or living large.

People are lazy, and they want their fast food via the television.

If you're working 50 hours a week to try to maintain family income, and your children have the kinds of aspirations that come from being flooded with television from age one, and associations have declined, people end up hopeless, even though they have every option.

A society that's provided for by television is a society that says it doesn't need too many parks or natural situations for children to play in because television will look after them.

Until the end of elementary school, I lived in a suburban area, so the type of village I used to live in is borderline between village and the city, so I'm familiar with the rustic environment.

The magazine, the daytime show, we've always tried to write affordable, accessible. Those are key words for us, and I do mean us, a huge staff of people at the magazine who love to cook affordable, friendly food that helps families eat better for less.
