NCIS

Doctor Who-
Narrative
 The equilibrium of this clip is when young Amy enters the museum and everything is fine. The disequilibrium is when the Dalek shows up as it is sent to kill them. The new equilibrium is when the doctor turns up and runs away with both Amys.
The storyline is communicated through the character Amy Pond and how she touches the alien object and her future self is inside. I think that next the doctor will get them out of the situation in some way or another and probably by using his sonic screwdriver.

Character
By being Scottish, both Amys appeal to the UK audience as they are like everyday people you will see on the street unlike other tv dramas such as Brooklyn 99 which is filmed in America and is not as relatable to a UK audience. In this clip when Propp's theory is applied we see that the doctor is the hero, Amy is the sidekick/ helper, young Amy is the heroine/princess and the Dalek is the villain. In some ways, they reinforce stereotypes as it is still a male hero and a female heroine; however, they also subvert stereotypes as there is a female sidekick which is unusual for most dramas or storylines.

Iconography
Both the Amys and the doctor are dressed in casual clothing and nothing is out of the ordinary; however, when the alien machine opens a bright light comes out which is common in many sci-fi. The Dalek is also much like any common robot found in many sci-fi movies and series. The setting of a museum is unusual for sci-fi as it tends to focus on the future and not the past.

Setting
This will provide audience pleasures such as diversion as it is entertaining and relationships as you emotionally connect to all characters and identification as it is made in England which many viewers will find familiar. The setting contrasts to the plot as the setting is, in reality, quite normal and unlike other sci-fi series, the museum setting focuses on history instead of future. This is unusual as most sci-fi series' are about technological advancements.



Humans
Narrative
The series follows a storyline where there is a mass production of synthetic humans that people begin to buy for themselves and their families. This takes place around a few years into our future. The equilibrium is when the families buy their synthetics and the disequilibrium is when the synthetics begin o rebel against their owners and go against protocol. However, in this clip, there is no new equilibrium as it is just a trailer it ends on a cliffhanger where the people are in dismay to allow the viewer to want to watch more. 

Character
The characters are appealing to a UK audience because they look like ordinary everyday people even though many of them are synthetics and this allows people to have a sense of familiarity when watching. In this clip, the characters both reinforce and subvert stereotypes as you see women who are acting as the hero, however, the males are also acting as the hero in this clip.

Iconography
In this series, the costume, props, lighting, and setting are all made to seem normal as this is set only a few years into our future with only a few technological advancements. However, as for makeup, actors cast for the synthetics are all made to wear green contacts and matted make so as to seem plastic.

Setting
The setting is unusual for a sci-fi drama as it looks like a normal everyday world however, the subtle advancmets in technology such as factories and more advanced televisions are what make the series seem as though it is a sci-fi drama.
