Cynopsis: Kids!
12/05/06
Good morning. It’s Tuesday, December 5, 2006 and this is your first early morning Kids! briefing.
The American Academy of Pediatrics has released Children, Adolescents, and Advertising, a new policy statement published this week in the December issue of Pediatrics. The AAP reports young people view 40,000+ ads on TV per year, and that this kind of exposure might be a significant contributor to obesity, poor nutrition, eating disorders, and cigarette and alcohol abuse. The statements also points to other ways that advertisers are reaching young people including increased exposure to advertising on the internet, and in magazines and in schools, as well as looking to the coming of interactive digital TV, as other ways that advertisers are reaching young people. In addition to pointing out the issues, the AAP also offers some recommendations to help alleviate some of the negative effects that advertising may be having on kids/adolescents people, including appealing to Congress:
- Educate young people to be more media literate – better critical viewers
- AAP points to evidence that birth control ads may lower teen pregnancy rates, without increasing the activity of the demo
- Shift ads for Viagra and other ED medications until after 10p – the concept being that these ads make sexual activity seem like a “recreational sport.”
- Pediatricians should work with parents, schools, community group and the like to “ban or severely curtail,” all in-school advertising
- Pediatrician waiting rooms should feature no magazines that carry tobacco or alcohol ads.
- Recommend patients watch two-hours or less of non-educational TV on a daily basis
- Pediatricians should also work with parents, community and public groups to get Congress to
- Limit commercial advertising on kid’s programming
- Place a ban on junk food ads primarily during kids programming
- Place a ban on tobacco ads in all media
- Regulate alcohol ads so that only the product is shown no cartoon characters or female models
- Increase program funding for Public TV
- Establish a national task force on advertising

This week marks the re-launch of the AtomFilms website that now includes a broadband TV service, a syndicated video player, a high-resolution video playback option and customizable channels. The new AtomFilms bows with the premiere of Hellholes, the pilot episode of horror-comedy series of the same name, developed by AtomFilms Studio and created by Kyle Rankin and Efram Potelle. Also launching on the site is a new Comedy Central channel featuring episodes of the channel’s web shows including the new Good God. Neither is for kids. The newly re-launched AtomFilms website is supported by its exclusive mobile video partner Verizon Wireless, which offers an AtomFilms channel on its V Cast service. AtomFilms is part of Atom Entertainment, which was acquired by MTV Networks earlier this fall.
NEW PRODUCTION & DEVELOPMENT
Disney Channel Europe is teaming with Chorion for an animated adaptation of Famous Five, based on the book series of the same name by Enid Blyton, first published in the 1940s. Set to premiere in the UK in 2008, the animated Famous Five will include 26-episodes and the language will be updated to reflect more modern times. Blyton is well known for her other stories including Noddy and The Secret Seven. For Disney Channel, the Famous Five project comes as it plans to open up a UK office to develop and produce original programming. To that end, Disney Channel Europe is also currently in development on two additional projects. The first is Bunny Town, a mixed live-action/puppet series developed with American Spiffy Pictures, which will be produced in the UK by Bakercoogan. The second is Quelli dell’Intervallo (translates as Break Kids) an Italian short-form project that catches kids through a classroom window talking about daily events. Localized versions of Quelli dell’Intervallo are currently airing in France, Germany and Spain.
