Tied up on Television
Throughout my 36- hour week consumption of television, my desire for entertainment, laughter, and home décor were fulfilled, leading towards a positive impact on me. First, the majority of television shows that I watch are reality shows like Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Total Divas, and Chrisley Knows Best. These drama filled shows help me to escape from my own life for a short while, and view someone else's through a first- hand glance. By watching these, it helps to take my mind off of personal problems and focus on a celebrity's. Yet, my television consumption isn't only directed toward entertainment, but also aide in laughter. Shows like Impractical Jokers, How I Met Your Mother, and Modern Family assist me into creating laughter and raising my mood. In addition to entertainment and laughter, I also enjoy watching home décor shows. These shows include, Flip or Flop, Property Brothers, and Fixer Upper. These shows help me to wind down after a long day. Also, they spark my creative thinking and lead me into expressing myself through crafts. Contrary to positive impacts, television has lead to negative effects on me too. These include watching commercials, whose goals are to influence my views. From this, it is weakening my thoughts and manipulating me to be more consumed by the media. In conclusion, I feel like my media consumption is well maintained, being spent on laughing, creating, and escaping, aiding me to be a better version of myself.
