I think people watch TV to escape from life.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There is a lot to life, and a lot more than just television to life.
Outside of the mindless sitcoms that the networks thrive on, people able to think generally consider most entertainment is escape in one form or another.
I think being on a TV show is amazing but also, people get kind of used to seeing you a certain way and so it becomes a challenge to break free from that in a way.
Being on a television series is sort of life-altering on every level.
People love coming on television, even if they have to show their miseries.
Today's audience knows more about what's on television than what's in life.
Reality TV rots people's brains.
I think that in order for anything to work on television, you have to have conflict. Nothing can be too happy or it's boring. People don't want to watch that - they want to watch things that are exciting and dangerous and sexy and have tension.
People's attitude seems to be that if you don't have a television, you're not connected to reality - somehow you're not in reality. It's quite interesting, because I suspect that possibly it's the reverse.
Life is so fast these days, and we're exposed to so much information. Television makes us a witness to such misery.
