The area we will be covering is Institution and Audience.

As a starting point I want you to think about some of the TV comedies that you've seen recently
  • What made you want to watch those comedies? 
  • Try to think beyond peer influence and consider any other factors that contributed to your choice.
  • Did you like or dislike the comedies?
  • What factors impacted or your enjoyment or lack of enjoyment?
  • Compose a post with your conclusions.
