The bucket list is a good representation of age. It goes against the stereotype of old age people and they way that they are conditioned to be. For example it shows them skydiving which not all old age people would do. The producer has done this because it makes for an interesting and funny film because it goes against the norms of being old.
Harold and Kumar is a good representation of race. It has a lot of stereotypes of asian people, Harold for example works in an office doing a lot of worked based on numbers, and Kumar's parents are trying to get him to be a doctor or a surgeon. This clip is positive towards race, although it uses stereotypes of both Harold and Kumar's race, it does it comically, because it is done in this way it shows that the producer does not think that race is a problem in films, therefore uses it to a comical effect.
'Orange is the new black' is an american series that is the story of a woman that gets sent to prison. What makes it interesting is the way that it goes against the stereotype that inmates will turn to homosexuality just for their own pleasure as they are only incarcerated with their own gender. In the series it shows inmates turning to homosexuality because they start to get feelings for the other inmates, not for pleasure. Because the women's change in sexuality is not just for pleasure, it promotes it in a positive way. This is is sending a positive message to the viewers and gives an insight to current issues in today's society.
The editor has chosen to show this contestant on tv for a couple of reasons. One is that women will find him attractive and appealing because he has the singer look. Also he has an emotional story about his brother who died last year, this makes the audience feel sorry for him and the judges. He uses this to his advantage to sing a second song and uses his emotions about his brother to sing a better song.
