Young Generation TV....Where Have We Gone??
The younger generation these days are so blind when it comes to what is good on the television. Shows like i-Carly, Suite Life of Zack and Cody, and even Wizards of Waverley place are what is the most popular. Back in the day, it used to be just Gumby and Scooby Doo Where Are You? Gumby was a classic simply because it provided entertainment and kept you watching with a smile on your face because of how the characters were shaped what they brought to the table. Scooby Doo was a dog whom is always missing in action and makes a lot of mistakes, but then eventually solves the crime without even knowing how. The shows nowadays are just not full of the same enjoyment and humor as they used to be. What has happened to children's television? The answer to that is greed. Plain and simple greed is what has happened. The television broadcasts just want money, and they think they are giving to the general public what the general public wants. In reality, that is not the case and our children are forced to watch what they think is an educational bit of life thrown their way when instead it is just artificial filler on channels meant for imagination alone. The creative imagination is a wonderful thing, having a child imagine something and go to their own world is what we actually want them to do, but we don't want them to engage themselves in a fake reality and get so drawn into it that we lose them. Today's broadcasts like Nick Jr. and the Disney Channel are a big disappointment. They should model their business after Noggin. Not only is Noggin educational but provides a little extra pizzazz for the child to understand what life is all about through all the hidden messages. It is those secret messages that humans love and want their children to learn to succeed from. That is what life is all about is it not? You decide!
