Classic Television

Famous quotes containing the words classic and/or television:

“For years, they have all been dying
Out, the classic buck-and-wing men”
—James Dickey (b. 1923)

“Laughter on American television has taken the place of the chorus in Greek tragedy.... In other countries, the business of laughing is left to the viewers. Here, their laughter is put on the screen, integrated into the show. It is the screen that is laughing and having a good time. You are simply left alone with your consternation.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
