Hi the other person doing Media Studies! :)
Is Media Studies in the UK different though? Coz there was an episode of
Drop the Dead Donkey and this guy was in the newsroom and he'd done Media
Studies. Here we'd have to do Journalism... more specific O suppose. In MS
we study theories of film, tv, their respective industries, a bit of
newspaper and new media technologies.

Murray's (?) idea of "example of 'good children tv'" sounds good, but maybe
you could also look at what I was talking about before: the limits of
children tv, and how it may cease to become purely targeted at children of a
certain age (and you can mention the 33 year old nutters on this mailing
list perhaps? ;)) and whether that deviates from the original intent and if
that deviation shouldn't actually be encouraged. Think of the three aspects
(I'm sure you know all these but I thought I might actually use my brains a
bit during the holidays :)) - - Audience (children/adults), Industry ($$$),
as well as text (quality, etc.). So yeah... this probably didn't help, but
there you go! Have fun! :)
Joy =)
