When we were kids, we didn't watch a lot of TV. We played a lot as siblings, and with our toys. Seeing how a lot of kids these days seem to have short attention span and have difficulty staying still, I think too much screen time is bad. With that being said, of the shows that we watched when we were kids, we still remember them fondly and helped shape our childhood. Shows like Xmen and Pokemon [I still remember the opening songs] helped me make friends, have conversations with other kids, and really developed my imagination. Like in a lot of things, moderation is key.

Were the shows steaming when you were a kid. I think that this also impacts children a lot these days. They are never "bored" in the way they have to find something to do, make a game, get up to mischief. There is always something to watch - even if it has no value.
It was at the same time every day on the weekdays. That is why it was such a big thing, and we were excited when it was getting close to the time it airs. I think never 'bored' isn't a bad thing. Whenever we got bored, we just played with toys. I think the shows itself, with the bright visuals, and constantly changing images affect the attention span of the kids today.
