Gogglebox

Gogglebox represents a range of people; they include a mix of culture, race, age and gender. This makes the makes the programme suitable for a large audience as many people can relate to the programme. I would say the programme is aimed at teens and above because there is sometimes some strong language used which may be unsuitable for younger people. I am not completely sure how the programme is made however I think they have the people sit in front of their TV and have good lighting behind the TV with a few cameras capturing different angles of their reactions. I think the main reason the programme has become so popular and successful is because it is so relatable. It is such a simple concept and so easy to understand and follow. It’s a programme that the whole family can sit down and enjoy watching together. Even the programme seems like a reality programme, how do we know that it’s not set up? The sofas that they sit on may just be a set, the people may be told how to react and the families may be set up. We don’t actually know. The programme makes us believe that we are in each family’s house watching their honest rations to different TV programmes.
