Richard Kilborn (1992: 75-84)• A major focus for research into why and how people watch TV has been the genre of soap opera. Adopting
a U & G perspective, Richard Kilborn (1992: 75-84) offers the following common reasons for watching soaps:
• regular part of domestic routine and entertaining reward for work
• launchpad for social and personal interaction
• fulfilling individual needs: a way of choosing to be alone or of enduring enforced loneliness
• identification and involvement with characters (perhaps cathartic)
• escapist fantasy (American supersoaps more fantastical)
• focus of debate on topical issues
• a kind of critical game involving knowledge of the rules and conventions of the genre
