Connection: Changing the Status Quo for TV

In class we have been talking about how major figures in the past have changed the status quo. We talked about how to change the status quo and the effects that took place when people had tried to. 

Modern TV has challenged the status quo of how we view it. The line between what is okay to show and not okay to show has slowly disappeared and been almost erased. Countries like the UK, Germany, and many European countries have almost no restrictions on TV. 

The U.S.A. has some of the strictest television in the world. With shows like Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead, and even Keeping up with the Kardashian's producers have created a clear divide between good and bad TV. I love ABC, NBC, FOX, FX, Comedy Central, USA, and AMC. These channels show the correct change in movement for television and the best way to intellect people through television.
