Q1
I use my laptop to watch my favorite program, "The Good Doctor" because it is convenient and offers access to quality streams. Indeed, I use the device that meets my needs because, unlike following the show on TV, a laptop allows ease of streaming the program without downloading the series. A computer is portable, which means that at any given time, I can access the program.
Q2
"The Good Doctor" meets audience needs through character development and challenging held prejudice by portraying a person with Autism as a phenomenal doctor. Ghanem et al. (2009) argue that individuals with higher social status appear more frequently and are portrayed positively in media. However, the show challenges most programs' normalcy by drawing "Dr. Shaun Murphy" as an autistic person with unique medical identification techniques. My friends who watch the show do so for the same reason of watching the lead character tackle autism and help patients.

Q3
The TV show demonstrates that in the real world, getting the things we want is difficult and requires finances and resilience. Without money, access to basic housing, treatment is almost impossible. To get the funds to live, an individual must work through long shifts and endure frustrating failures. Indeed, Ghanem et al. (2009) outline that what is salient through media influences what is salient to the public. The program sheds light on the challenges of Autism, homelessness, and low pay. However, while stressed, I wouldn't watch the show because the majority of scenes involve patients suffering and death. On a sad day, a comedy would light up dark days.
Q4
The show indicates that those who are different have to work harder than those who are perceived otherwise. The program represents people of all races, including African American, Asian, White, the rich, and the homeless. However, being different requires learning to live through stigmatization and alienation. Nonetheless, those perceived differently have the power to find ways to air their views, help out, outperform, and challenge racial differences and societal biases. Ghanem et al. (2009) suggest that media portrayal can influence behavior and perception. Indeed, each character is cast in a humanly way where societal privileges and prejudices are challenged.
