TV/movie audience desire to view people who possess high-status markers...I don't think this has anything to do with respect

This is a contradiction.

Sorry if it was confusing but you are taking it out of context. I actually meant: the fact that we don't have a proportional number of old people in TV/movies as in real life is not because we respect old people less in real life. It is simply a reflection of the freedoms available in TV/movies.
