Watch: "DARTH BY DARTHWEST”
This is High School
This Is High School, a 6 x 60-minute series slated to debut in the fall of 2016, is based on Twofour Group’s Educating.. franchise, which includes such projects as Educating Essex, Educating Yorkshire and Educating the East End. The CBC series, following the trials and tribulations in a British Columbia high school, is being billed by the Canadian pubcaster as “a love letter to teachers, celebrating the amazing work and downright heroism that educators bring to their job every day.” Paperny Entertainment produces, and Endemol Shine International will shop the Canadian series globally.

"The idea that filling in tiny printed shapes with a felt-tip pen counts as creative shows how debased our ideas of creativity have become."
What’s more, this boom in childish entertainment points to a much larger problem: our culture no longer offers any models of adulthood that are remotely appealing. Growing up is identified with resignation; abandoning all the dreams of adventure, all the hopes you had for enjoying, and contributing to, a better future…
it is not just our fault: the forces that govern society do not really want grown-ups, for immature masses are much easier to manage. In Kant’s day, the means by which people were kept immature were straightforward. Censorship and punishment worked to keep subjects from thinking for themselves.
While we shouldn’t forget that those methods are still used in countries with which we are allied – Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and China leap to mind – the West has discovered more effective ways of keeping its citizens from growing up. Distraction works better than censorship. If you prevent people from getting information, some bold souls will always be moved to rebel. If you flood them with unmanageable quantities, they just want the noise to stop.

"All of us in our own virtual neighborhoods of our own making, liking opinions that tell us we’re right instead of engaging with viewpoints that make us question our assumptions."
Facebook has magnified all of these trends: not only is content content, regardless of source, but it also tries to give us more of what we (literally) like, or click on, or comment on (in this case I am talking about the News Feed, not the Trending News section). If you like publications and stories that are more liberal in nature, you’ll get more liberal stories and publications in your feed; it’s the same thing with conservative stories and publications, or sports, or music, or whatever topics “drives engagement”, to use the parlance.
The result is that if you are a conservative, say, you are living in a cornucopia of conservative thought unimaginable to those students launching a new college newspaper against the odds in 1969. There are no obstacles to publishing, and Facebook actually tries its darnedest to bring you more of what you like in the name of engagement.
