Abstract

Through analyzing the TV shows’ market and investigating the tendency of the development of the mass culture, a new type of teen campus TV show has emerged. This kind of genre can meet the needs of the masses and will gain a high popularity among the audience. The storytelling in these new teen campus TV shows is such that the actors are taken straight out of high school students’ real lives, and the plots presented are equally similar to real high school students’ lives[1]. This is different from the representation of high school students in similar TV shows before 2000, in that time, these storylines were not as close to the students’ realities. Today’s teen TV shows, however, feel and look like documentaries, and are inspired by the reality television genre. Thus, watching this kind of movie provides people with memories to recall their own high school lives. The idea is that viewers can identify with the screen story through a personal connection. Therefore, this kind of movie makes full use of people’s nostalgia and they’re looking forward to pure high school romance to capture the audience’s attention.
