In '83, not only was there no such thing as performance motion capture technology, there was no such thing as digital animation. This was the analog era.

This whole thing about reality television to me is really indicative of America saying we're not satisfied just watching television, we want to star in our own TV shows. We want you to discover us and put us in your own TV show, and we want television to be about us, finally.
