PRODUCER RESEARCH:
E4
- Brief history of channel , links to other channels
E4 first launched on 18 January 2001, and it was introduced as a paid television channel companion with Channel 4. Later on 16 December 2004, Channel 4 had migrated to a free-to-air television channel instead.
- Summary of content :genres broadcast, most popular weekly programmes
E4 mainly consists of dramas, sitcoms and comedies but they also include other genres such as reality, action and animations.
- Channel identity, statement or mission
"Our mission is to Do It First, Make Trouble and Inspire Change."
- Most successful programmes ( audience figures/critical success )
The top 10 most watched programmes on E4 include the two popular series: The Inbetweeners and The Big Bang Theory. The Inbetweeners reached an all-time high on E4 with 3,721,000 viewers on 11 October 2010, and The Big Bang Theory reached their highest viewers with 2,803,000 people on 15 November 2012.
- Any examples of programmes similar in theme /genre to your initial ideas aimed at the required target audience
My genres in consideration: Drama, Comedy
I will be broadcasting on E4 because the entertainment and comedy genre has been the most popular genres on the channel, and on BBC3, there are other categories and genres that overtake the comedy and entertainment.
