media diary week 6

While being off this week many people, including me, have spent a numerous amount of time sat on their laptop or watching the telly. The television series I watched over the week off is American Horror Story:Freak Show, staring Evan Peters, Emma Roberts, Sarah Paulson and Jessica Lange. The target audience of this piece of text would be the explorer audience, as the programme is unusual and constantly changing format. With the whole series changing constantly and none of the seasons linking up. The stories are chaining every season with different people playing different characters and new characters being introduced every series. I don't think i would normally consume this piece of media as its based around horror stories, with the first season taking place in a murder house, second season is based in an insane asylum, third season is about witches in a coven and the fourth season(which i watched over this week) takes place at a freak show. i would say I fall in the mainstream audience category type as I tend to stick to new movies that have the same cast and storyline as most film out already, nothing is ever new. I believe that I would take the preferred reading to this media text as i enjoy the show as its stories about different people and what the have been through in life to end up where they are when he story takes place. Also in the last episode we see what happens what the show gets closed we see what happens to them in the future, for some their dreams come true and some just don't get the time the live the dreams they wanted. However for others they get to lie a life they would of never of though of while they were part of the Freak show.
