W: Are you watching any good shows these days?
M: Actually yes. I'm watching a great satire called Frankie. I think you'd like it.
W: Really? What's it about?
M: It's about a real guy named Frankie. He is a famous comedian in New York. And the show is a mixture of comedy and drama loosely depicting his life.
W: I'm sorry. Do you mean to say it's a real-life series about a real person? It's non-fiction, isn't it?
M: No...not really, no. It's a fiction as what happens in every episode is made up. However, the lead role is a comedian by the name of Frankie and he plays himself. So Frankie in both real life and in the TV show lives in New York City, is a comic, is divorced and has two little daughters. All those things are true. But aside from him, all his friends and family are played by actors. And the plots and events that take place are also invented.
W: Oh, I think I see now. That sounds like a very original concept.
M: (5)(6)Yes, it is. In fact, the whole show is written, directed, edited and produced by him, and it's very funny and has won many awards.
W: That's cool. (7)I will try to download it. I'm watching a comedy called The Big Bang Theory. It's a huge hit around the world.
M: Oh yes, I've heard of it, but never actually watched it.
W: Well, then you should check it out. It's also very funny. It's about four male scientists and a female waitress. The men are very socially awkward, but very bright. And this is contrasted by the lady's social skills and common sense. (8)The show has been running for over 10 years and some of the actors are practically global superstars. Now that they are such famous celebrities.
