Gogglebox

Media Gogglebox On first glance googlebox is a harmless reality television show intended to make you laugh however, scratch the surface and Gogglebox is an interesting insight into our society as a whole. Highlighting the cross sections within our society despite your age , ethnicity and gender. Which are not evident within the media's representation of sections of society which suggest because of your age ,ethnicity or gender you should act in certain way. This theory is expelled by Gogglebox because no matter their contrasting features all the observant watch the same programmes and react in similar fashion consequently defying the age old stereo types exercised by the media's representation which have influenced people's opinions of different types of people. The audience don't probably receive the show like that as it is a light hearted reality television. Due to the vast types of people on gogglebox there is someone for everyone to relate to which embeds within one of the four features of the reception theory and cleverly widens their audience subsequently boosting their views .In comparison to a television show produced by CBBC which is aimed at small children and basically excludes anyone of any other age. The message portrayed by Gogglebox reiterates much of the reception theory as it is a surveillance presenting the cross sections in society which are not apparently non existent with today's society and it expellees stereo types presented in the media day after day. Although I am surprised their is no disclaimer because the production value is suggested to be genuine but the people on occasion over to great extent and that the suggestion their is one camera in the television although their are close ups and other cinematographic devices deployed. Also their houses are almost show houses and their opinions are very conservative and may be outlandish when the camera is off.
