Television

Everybody watches television and has different taste of choice. My two favorite shows are "That's So Raven" and "Degrassi". That's So Raven is about a high school girl named Raven and her two best friends Eddie and Chelsea. They're your average teens getting through high school and dealing with problems, choices, issues, and pressure. Degrassi is the same plot as Raven. Teens going to school and dealing with problems, On Degrassi they show more issues such as: rape, fighting, teacher/student relationships, boy friends, girl friends, and drugs.

Raven is more of a comedy focusing on Raven Baxter a fashion diva obsessing over her clothes, Eddie who's laid back loves sports, and tries to get the girls; Chelsea who's more concerned with nature and is a vegetarian. On Degrassi students such as: Paige a cheerleader striving for everything in excellence, Emma in touch with nature and her environment, JT the mascot for Degrassi and who's the boyfriend of Liberty who strives for excellence always determined to be number one in everything she does who's also the girlfriend of JT.

Both shows can relate by kids getting through life, choosing a path in life, and getting through high school with out embarrassment. They all have different people and bullies to deal with over the years. Both shows can reflect a message to their audience. Parents can talk to there kids about the issues, problems, and dilemmas that all students face during high school.

As a show progresses its starts to develop its own theme. Many start having their own routines and plots. Raven shows that where she always tries to chase that boy of this boy from time to time. Degrassi is more lenient on real problems they show people slashing themselves, being raped, racisms, stereotypes, and working. For comedy shows a message is sent out to kids by saying don't stress your life over work, school, and choices. All kids love comedies why everybody loves to laugh and have a good time while watching their favorite program. More serious shows such as Degrassi sends a message telling young teenagers don't resort to knives. Always look at the positive side of things, be equal to everyone no matter what they look like, and remember to always to be prepared for anything that can be unexpected.

For most shows these can have a lot of flaws and situations. Raven shows her interest as a diva by never giving
