TV Drama

TV Drama attracts the largest regular audience. There are many reasons to why we watch television dramas such as to subconsciously learn lessons about society, it acts as distraction from daily life and provides an escapism for people. TV dramas also allow us to identify with characters and situations in the program. There are also many reasons why we study television drama; again to learn about society and to learn important lesson. To learn what it means to be human and to  understand different representations like age, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, class and status, physical ability and disability and regional identity. The big question is:
