“If 220 was a woman, she’d be my perfect companion; an embodiment of the unique personalities on the team. She’d be that girl I’ll never forget. She allows me to move my body to the heart of the music, to move our audiences, and to move with one purpose and one love. Dancing with her is how I let my heart groove with freedom. When you love someone, you want to better yourself, make changes, grow, struggle, and learn for that person. I wake up with thoughts of her in my mind, but she gets me through the days because I know I’ll dance with her again. If 220 was a woman, our passion for dance would only be exceeded by our love for each other. We hold close our past to define our future, and while we’re hungry to be innovative, we stay humble at heart. Dancing with her, that’s Second To None.”
If only you knew…

And now, with kids shows, we’re afraid to touch on subjects like death, divorce, and homosexuality, lest the parents phone up and throw a bitchfit. Television was educational not in that it taught us how to count by twos or what the word indigenous meant, but in the way it taught us life lessons in a way we were able to see, understand, reference and relate to. Television shows like this were guidebooks for parents, good tools to use when having a talk with kids about the death of a family member, friend, or even a pet. Saying things like “remember how Chuckie found that picture of his Mommy, and his Dad showed him all the things she used to have, and the poem she wrote for him?” gets the kid in the right mindset- and now?
Now we’ve got shows based on “randomocity”, slapstick humor without purpose, and full thirty minute slots packed tight with mindless one-liners and lessons in how to catch jellyfish with a net if you live underwater as a yellow sponge.
I’m not saying we didn’t have our set of shows like that, with silly nothingness, but there were so many more shows with valuable lessons than there are today. That’s why shows like My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, are receiving such volumes of attention: they are heading in the right direction, brushing subjects that other kid’s cartoons neglect for fear of backlash.
why cant todays tv shows be like this?
