My son hated all kids’ tv and movies. Until we had a revelation.

    This is the same thing I thought!! I got here

    All the movies and TV shows Levi is drawn to have a psychological ambiguity mixed with a psychedelic silliness that seemed hard to find in much of today’s popular kids’ content.

    He liked watching the stuff with someone, you schmuck.

    Why are you obsessed with plopping your kid down in front of bullshit TV?

    Slate is never sending their best.

      This! I remember watching king kong (1933) and abbot and costello meet Frankenstein (1948) with my Grandmother as a small child. These movies predate her but she loved growing up with these things.

      The era doesn’t really matter as time for humans on this earth is actually very short. It’s not about what you watch, it is about who you share it with.
