The audience that is intended for this TV programme is a family based audience. This is due to the fact that it is a typical saturday night television programme that all the family gather round and watch it together. The uses and gratifications for this programme is very easy to point out. This programme is mainly for entertainment purposes. People watch the 'X Factor' to be entertained and laugh at the bad audiences. For example, the clip I have posted has been constructed in a way to make the person to seem more bad than they already are and this entertains many audiences. The programme can also be used for social intergration due to the fact that it gets people talking about it and it publicly gets recognised as many discussions are taking place. They construct the programme so that they make the bad acts into laughing stocks whilst the good acts are being shown as 'amazing'. The show also mediates onto certain acts to show their story and perspective during the course of this journey they have to take in order to hopefully win the X Factor.
Clip is from the X Factor 2013 on the first week of auditions.
