Our mind contains a set of exciting ideas we have picked up over the years from experience. We became rather conditioned to expect certain things to happen within a particular genre. For instance, in a science fiction program, I would expect to see aliens, lasers, planets and robots, and would highly question the nature of the program if they were not on the program.
On ITV Player, the programs appear in categories such as Drama, Children's and Lifestyle and Leisure. There are also sub-genre to make the search more accurate. For example, for Lifestyle and Leisure, its sub-genre could be cookery/food or DIY/Property.
There also can be hybrid genres. Hybrid genres are genres that cross over such as Horrible Histories. It is a children's program, which is also a factual and a comedy program.
Drama programs:
- Catch Me if You Can
- Eastenders
- Silent Witness
- Doctors
- Father Brown
- Broadchurch
- Downtown Abbey
- The Vampire Diairies
- Lucan
- The Poison Tree
