Task 1-Examples of TV drama...

For the first task for our media exam blog, we have been told to research 3 different types of TV drama. The first example of TV drama that i researched is Soap Opera.
This genre of TV drama includes programmes such as Eastenders, Coronation Street and Hollyoaks. These shows are on mostly every night at a certain time, and usually follow different stories, through different characters and familes regularly.

Another example of TV drama is a SitCom. These are shows that appear in this catagory would be programmes such as 'The inbetweeners' 'Two and a half men' and 'F.R.I.E.N.D.S'. They are normally written by the show’s creators.It features characters that are around the same environment and makes jokes as part of the dialogue.

A final example of a TV drama is Crime drama. This is mostly based with Police involvement and criminals breaking the law. It usually involves detectives, a hero (usually the Police), a villain (usually the criminal) and the victim and victims family.  This type of drama keeps the audience coming back and watching all the time because of the suspense and thrill. Programmes of crime drama include, 'CSI', 'Inspector George Gently' and 'New Tricks'.
