Solution and Method

My diploma thesis is based on a thorough analysis of various television programmes, focusing on three main categories: talk shows, news programmes and interviews. The following paragraphs will present in more detail the key aspects of each category, together with related topics. Talk shows, as the first category examined, were analysed according to their characteristics.

This includes the structure and format of programmes, emphasis on content tailored to the target audience, and the role of the host. Particular emphasis was placed on the impact of talk shows on viewership, with a thorough analysis of statistical data, connections between guest popularity and viewership trends across different time slots. The role of talk shows as a source of information and their influence on shaping public opinion was also examined.

The next key category is news programmes. The research focuses on the characteristics of television news programmes, the role of the host, impact on viewership and the importance of news programmes as sources of information. Differences between news programmes and other formats, as well as similarities between them, were also analysed.

Interviews, as the third category examined, were presented with emphasis on their characteristics, the role of the host, impact on viewership and as a potential source of information. The preparation of different programmes (talk shows, news programmes, interviews) was also examined, highlighting differences and similarities between these formats. Furthermore, how designed content affects viewers' well-being when watching different programmes was studied.

The research also touches upon the presence of celebrities in television programmes, viewership according to broadcast time slot and the impact of advertising on programme viewership. Overall, this diploma thesis provides an in-depth insight into various aspects of television programmes and their impact on audiences, enriched with analysis of concrete examples and relevant data.
