Model Answer:
Animal Planet is one of the most popular satellite television channels, and it airs different educational programs around the day. Most of the programs are based on animals and their behaviors. ‘Bad Dog!’ is an exciting television show and it is educative as well.
The show is about animals and pets, especially about the dogs which are naughty. It shows the misdeeds of the dogs and how the owners are to suffer for the deeds. But the owners of the dogs do not take any punitive measures against the dogs as they love the dogs unconditionally. This is a deep bond among the dogs and their owners. Most of the cases, the dogs cause serious damage to the surroundings and the owners tolerate the entire things for the sake of their pets. Even they do not shout loudly with the dogs. This is a fascinating show that helps to increase the love and affection towards the dogs. But filming for the hilarious events is not so easy for the show makers and they have to perform lots of tasks for taping the four-legged pets.
I am a regular viewer of this show- Bad Dog! Usually the show takes place on different days of the week and definitely in different schedules. So, when I am at home, I do not miss the episodes and try to know about the schedule of the show earlier. But if I have to miss the show, I visit the website of the television channel and try to collect the missing episode. I do not want to miss the show for several reasons. Firstly, this is an interesting show and I have learnt many things about dogs and their nature. It also teaches me not to misbehave with any pet animals despite their ill activities rather than taking some precautionary measures. Besides, I also get entertained with the activities of the dogs as they do with their owners. Often I cannot stop my laughter during the show. The program generally begins in the evening and lasts for over half an hour. I sit before the television set during the entire broadcasting time.
Animal Planet is a television channel that is appropriate for all ages of people but not all the programs here are suitable for all. Some of its programs like the Bad Dog! is made for the enjoyment of all. Everyone can enjoy the show and in my home, I found that the kids are fonder of the show than the adult people. They like to enjoy the program with me and if I forget to watch it, they remind me to switch on the television during the program airing hours. Though the program is meant for everyone, I think it is enjoyed by only some specific group of people. Bad Dog! is mostly enjoyed by teenage people, women, and elderly people who do not have anything to do during the evening hours. Sometimes the television show is repeated but that happens in the morning hours.
This is an educative television program for a wide number of reasons. Firstly, the program tells us about the nature of the pet animals. At the first sight, it may appear that the pets are cool but spending some moments with the pet will reveal the truth – how cool they actually are. Dogs are considered as the best friend of men and often they are kept as pets to accompany the humans. But the dogs also could be misbehaving with the owners. They destroy the properties and important objects and more. The program shows every possible thing done by the dogs and after watching the show, people could learn about their behaviors and attitudes. Once the inner behaviors of the dogs are exposed, the pet owners could take preventive measures against the dogs. The show reveals how destructive the dogs could be and when the audiences are watching the show, surely they plan for some countermeasures against those misdeeds by the dogs. So, the program has some extra appeal to me and I consider it as one of the most educative programs on television. Every pet owner, especially a dog, should watch the show and take the necessary measures.
