I've watched over 14,000 episodes of television (according to Trakt).
This morning I watched one of the most perfectly paced, beautiful, well-written examples of animated story-telling for children.
Many shows for kids have been reduced to self-contained 7-minute shorts. A full arc from exposition to denouement plus opening and closing credits is the norm. Good story-tellers can still do a lot with that.
Continuity, for example, is something kids grasp and enjoy...
