Tv Drama

A TV Drama is scripted and (normally) fictional and has a continuous story line so to keep the viewer interested and continue watching. It can be set in the past, present or future in some cases. Also the characters are easy to relate to as the story-lines aren't too far from real life and some characters are humorous or horribly evil, causing the viewer to want to see what they do next.
