THE FIRST ICON
Dora The Explorer, this is my first contemporary icon. I always watch the show with Beverlyne,Kayla,Crista,Adam, Nem and Nicole. This program makes children more creative and learn things. In most of Dora’s story, she goes on trips to help people or find something.
Dora asks her audience at home to help her find new places by using a map. Also Dora teaches childrens to learn Spanish and vocabulary. She also teaches them to love one another. My cousins and niece loves this part, they always say, they love Dora because Dora sees everyone the same. She’s always kind and gives others chances to learn more things. Kids get to enjoy the show while learning different things. Dora The Explorer has became more popular because of the educational plays she gives, a thing that makes many parents have their kids to watch it. So, to me Dora is a good example of a contemporary icon.
THE SECOND ICON
The Family guy is a show about a family of five and a dog named Brian. The show is very popular. It deals with the business of managing a family. Family guy is an adult orientated show. I like this show because it funny, controversial but sometimes motivates.
For example, one day Peter Griffin, the father of the family, decided to go into an executive bathroom because he got bored at work. When using it, he became motivated to do some changes at work. Peter started to clean his office and dress well so he may become an executive. He tried to impress his boss.
Eventually his boss was impressed by Peter and recommended an open executive position him. Peter went to Human Resource to get promoted but the HR personnel told him in order to have the position he has to finish third grade. He decided to go back to school where he was challenged by his teacher to win a spelling bee to pass the third grade. Luckly Peter won and he went back to work to have his position. But he was told he would arrested because he was responsible an exploitation at a children’s hospital. He received seven days in prison. Even though he did not get what he was trying to get, he still tried to put some efforts.
To me some of the Family Guy episodes motivates and are funny to watch. They also relate to peoples lives.
THE THIRD ICON
This is the final icon. The Simpsons show is one of Americans’ best series. The Simpsons show is a family of five that lives in Springfield. The series has different episodes with different themes where by a father totally forgets his responsibilities as the father and does not take care of his family. The Simpons show relates to other peoples in our life style.
