Young minds are worthy of good honorable entertainment

Suze Orman is a celebrity financial guru having made presentations on reputable television channels such as PBS. Born in Chicago, Illinois her career in economic literature began in the San Francisco Bay Area. Originally, her capital journey started in the then Buttercup Pantry on the border of Berkeley and Oakland on College Avenue across the street from La Farine Bakery, a French bakery known for their exceptional Morning Buns amongst all the rest.

In the Saturday Night Live parody of The Suze Orman Show Kristen Wiig does an outstanding impersonation quipped with the ostentatious motherly persona of Middle America. She injects constantly an exaggerated voice of concern and patsy to achieve the trust that is required within the public eye. What’s funny is not her accent or the alleged accusations of Suze Orman’s merit to give advice in the first place but rather is Wiig’s unfettered approach to gross doctrines. She simply flies off like a jet when placed in a role which defies comedy in a new and refreshing way.

In contrast to Pixar’s Finding Nemo and the shark scene, adults can walk away from SNL sketches and discuss, argue or debate the implications or innuendos. Children do not have that luxury. Their life span is too brief to be able to measure their experiences based on new forthcoming information. Truth be told, they are the biggest consumers of media and marketers exploit this. It would suffice to say that there ought to be a law which governs children’s media with the intent of protecting young minds from a barrage of unnecessary information. Children’s television and cinema is just getting too sloppy. Films such as Bambi, The Red Balloon or even cartoons like Roadrunner are still relevant and didn’t need to cheapen themselves with pop cult references. In regards to Finding Nemo, or any other relative form of mass media, children will grow up one day only to share this film with their children and will learn that they were robbed of a pure and nourishing story.
