Real World Las Vegas ep.2

Real World Episode 2

1. To entertain the audience. Because it's not informative really at all. It introduces new characters that people relate to.
2. Teens to young adults maybe from 16-21 years of age is the intended audience. I think hits exactly the right age. the intended and actual audience are the same.
3. Jonathan Murray and Mary-Ellis Bunim. Everything falls on them. If the show sucks or if its amazing. If dirty things happen or not. The success of the show all comes back to the creators.
4. Real world is a reality series based on drama. i think it could go under family because they seem like a family living together and fighting all the time. By the end they all don't want to leave because they became such good friends.
5. The structure is mainly climaxing at the fighting scenes. The drama unfold on every episode. For example when Adam and Nany fight about how Adam doesn't think braking a glass bottle at the club was appropriate in this new episode.
6. They play up to date songs that way teens will be interested. They can persuade them to buy it on something as i-tunes. All of the girls wear expensive cute clothes, which makes you want to go out and buy it too. The font is really bubbly and fun. The camera sometimes will focus in on what the cast members are drinking to try and sell it.

There is a lot of consumerism in this. First off you have to watch a commercial after every ten minutes of the show. In the back ground in this episode it shows a fridge filled with the sundrop soda they had advertised the commercial before. They zoom in to show what alcoholic beverage they are drinking.

I definitely agree that the Real World has a lot of consumerism! I too noticed the sundrop soda, and they also had commercials for sundrop during the show.

I wouldn't quite say that the Real Word falls under the 'family' genre because it isn't a family show, but i think it is more of a drama reality TV show.
