"Isn't television glamourous?"

- Adam Savage

About this Quote

Adam Savage's quote, "Isn't television attractive?" seems ironical in nature. The context in which it is being gone over might be in referral to the shallow and scripted nature of television programs that depict a deceptive image of the entertainment industry. The expression 'glamorous' would usually indicate a sensation of elegance and appeal, yet Adam's tone here is that one may be misinformed about the true nature of television production. The comment might likewise be indicative of the exhausting and tiring work that enters into producing a TV program. Overall, it seems a remark that minimizes the perception of the allure that frequently surrounds the TV industry.
