Noel MacNeal: I hate when they say kids have a short attention span, so that's why we have to make these stories really short. No, you're training them to have a short attention span, because if your show is interesting then they would actually sit and watch it.
Nate Begle: Dan just said his 3-year-old daughter will sit and watch a 105 minute movie if it's engaging enough.
Noel: Yeah, if it's really good. So people on these dedicated children's channels are saying kids don't have an attention span. No, you're training them not to have an attention span, because your shows are crap. And so you can't make a silk's purse out of a sow's ear. So that's why you have to keep it short.
