Fab "You Can't Do That On Television" interview link

Great interview with Geoffrey Darby, co-creator of "You Can't Do That On Television" - and inventor of Nickelodeon's once-famous green slime.  (Interview from SplitSider by Matthew Klickstein.)

Money quote, to my mind:

"I think that when you deal with any property like this – for children and for adults – the great ones are those that came from somebody who really had a passion for and would fight for that story and those characters and not have them sort of bent by market research.

 ...

When we look at what are the great things we all remember, it’s all because they’re passion projects. I think that floats right to the top every time.  I think Nickelodeon has not lost that. I hope."
