The Future of television: 2050
This is the year 2050. There are lot of things that is changed now. So many things
have developed in a positive as well as negative way (magazine, 2010). The journey of the
electronics has changed the most, for example, the TV had gone through an amazing journey
and now it has taken a different shape at this present day. The journey of TV started with the
a small box black and white coloured picture and with few channels and now converting into
a touch screen transparent with at least two thousands channels.
In today’s world where surroundings are developed with flying cars, the use of petrol
and diesel is reduced in today’s world, solar energy converted into chemical energy or using
easily available chemicals in the earth to make efficient fuel for transportation (Pelletier,
2013). Humanoids are introduced in this world. In this artificial world of machines, humans
have neglected the Mother Nature. To conserve nature the world still has wildlife sanctuaries,
zoological parks and botanical parks.

Other than this, the world is surrounded with man made things to make everyday life
easy. Due to all these unnatural things around, the climatic conditions is poor like the
percentage of rain is less, the melting of glaciers is increased, drought is some regions of the
world and land is reduced as humans had to migrate to other country because some inland is
not in the map anymore. World has achieved in other genre such as artificial and inter-
breeding techniques of crop productions to multiple the quantity of food with increasing
population. The food is designed to reflect the idea of what we produced in respect to
climatic conditions on various landscapes (Smith, 2010).
The cultural values has changed, people are more open to each other and about every
issue. But the negative point about this is that with increase in technology the demand has
increased and hence the crime rates are also increased. Earth is in danger in the year 2050,
due to manufactured industries for high economic growth and neglecting the nature.
The economy of the world has raised but with certain harm. The economy in 2050 is
doubled in size due to growth of population and due to continued technology-driven
productivity improvements. The emerging markets in 2018 have grew in the year 2050 with
advance economics with highest GDP. Entertainment is one of the major reasons for the
economic growth in the year 2050 (Kraines & Komiyama, 2008).
The social and political factors and issues in the year 2050 is people do not trust
government anymore. Leaders have envisioned the future that they want for their countries
such as government has invested in improving the digital literacy of the population. People
have to restore trust in the political process and leadership power of the leaders. With rapid
increase in technology, leaders have to develop a long-term strategic vision to approach the
society.

between them. The super heroes are now much advanced with their high technology power
suits and arms and they are ready to save the world from anything. This story revolves around
the super heroes trying to save the world from alien attacks.
As the genre of the series is fantasy, the budget of the movie is high due to many
special effects, which costs too much to edits in every shot. And with increase in economy
the budget has to be high. The show is telecasts on every Friday of the week for an hour
sometimes one-and-a-half hour special. When the show is aired, there are no advertisements
in between the show, the show runs for entire one hour and when the show ends, the channel
provides fifteen-minute advertisements.

The network on which the show is air is CWs channel and this is a famous channel
creating a great history of amazing shows. The broadcast network in today’s life is increased

The show has an immense effect on the population of the world. As in, the world love
comic books of Marvel and on this present year this Marvel is producing series, which has a
huge audience, and people love it because of its ideas that are advance and has fantastical
elements in the plot with different powers to different characters. The show affects the culture
of the world by its negative as well as positive impact (roshanem, 2016). The positive aspect
was this series has no age limit to watch and hence everyone can watch it and the negative
aspect of the show is also the same as the show sometimes broadcast the unnatural scenes that
a child may try to do and may be harmful for him/her.
The artificial intelligence has developed and now it is applicable on the humanoids in
the year 2050. People use robots and androids in day-to-day life to ease their work (Moravec,
2009). Everything around happens with the help of machines. The networks are advanced
such as the medium of transmission like the broadcast, or the mobile or internet networks
(K.Ghose, 2009).
While the year is already developed there is not much famine left in the developed
countries but still left in some developing countries ( Roser & Hasell, 2017). In the year of
2050 the global famine issues is resolved in the developed countries and it is resolving in the
developing countries as well (Dwortzan, 2018). In addition, in this year it does not affects the

Conclusion:
The future world is amazing with advanced technology but it has a negative as well as
positive aspect. TV and the shows have developed in these years. In the year 2050, the
sovereignties are still there in the developing countries. Hence, the state TV has few channels
and they do not have advance technology due to low GDP and economy level on the
developing countries.
