Success of the Teen-Comedy-Drama Genre

From the research I have conducted into the genre me and Kirsty are looking to use for 'Science Boys', I have found that teen-dramas and comedy-dramas are very popular and successful. One film and TV sereis which has influenced are 'Science Boys' creation is E4's The Inbetweeners. The Inbetweeners Movie took £45,028,695 in Box Office takings and was the second most popular film in the UK in 2011 and it only came out in the summer! This shows that this genre is worth a lot of moeny and that if we were to really produce the 'Science Boys' movie and release it, it would liekly make a big profit. 

Programmes such as the American sitcom The Big Bang Theory and British sitcom The I.T Crowd which have also influenced our idea of the 'Science Boys' are popular with high viewing figures. In the UK, 1.13 million viewers watched The Big Bang Theroy on E4 making it the most popular programme of the week! Also, The I.T Crowd peak rating was 2.17 million viewers and the programme won 2 BAFTA's showing that it was popular with audiences as well as critics.

All of this shows that the genre and concept of the 'Science Boys' could be very successful if it was put to production. If we execute the making of the 'Science Boys' well, it would be a very popular film!
