I noticed this same editing style in a children’s show about 20 years ago (when I last watched TV regularly). Every second there was a new cut—the camera never stayed focused on any one subject for long. It was highly distracting to me, such that I couldn’t even watch without feeling ill, and yet this was a highly popular and award-winning television show. I had to wonder at the time: What is this doing to children’s developing brains?
