TV: Introduction to TV Drama

 Q1:A serial is a television show which has a continuous plot that unfolds in sequential episode-by-episode fashion. 

Q2: ABC Avengers, Danger Man, The Sweeny, and The Minder are all examples of TV drama from the factsheet. I feel like media has evolved with its audience and their beliefs mostly starting to try and show lesser minorities or representation of certain communities.

Q3: Settings influence the plot tremendously, are part of it, create an atmosphere, and complete the picture.

Q4: Most TV dramas have a large ensemble cast – a range of characters. These characters are often stereotypical – communicating a lot to the audience quickly. Often recognizable and relatable – giving audiences the pleasure of identification and an ongoing 'relationship': we keep watching to find out what happens to them.

Q5:The narrative structure in television programmes and movies does not always follow one storyline. This happens most often in Soap operas and long running episodic dramas, such as Eastenders or Casualty.

Q6:A cold open is a narrative technique used in television and films. It is the practice of jumping directly into a story at the beginning of the show

Q7:The key use of Todorov's theory is in identifying the values and ideologies suggested by the narrative.

Q8:A TV format is the overall concept and branding of a copyrighted television show.

Q9:TV shows were no longer confined to the box in the corner of the living room, or movies to multiplexes.

Q10: In conclusion, the future of TV is set to be a thrilling ride, with emerging technologies transforming the way we consume and interact with content.
