Communication Essay
One show that I can think of that there is always a lot of communication issues would be the television show called Home Improvement. Tim would always go to his neighbor, Mr. Wilson, with issues that he was having with his family and ask him for advice on how to deal with the problem. The only problem with this is that after Tim got his neighbor’s, Mr. Wilson’s, advice he would always misinterpret what the neighbor was saying when he would repeat it to his wife and/or one of his three boys.
The issue or purpose of the commication in this television show woud be that, Tim Taylor, would be going to his neighbor, Mr. Wilson, to ask him for his advice on how to deal with his family issues. I believe the main purpose is to help work out problems or issues that Tim is having with either his wife or one of his three children. I believe that there was both successful communication as well as miscommunication in the television series. The reason I feel that both forms of communication were being used is because Tim would get information from Mr. Wilson and take it back and apply it with his family in a different way than it was told to him. Tim would get the point across that Mr. Wilson was trying to make, but when he would repeat to his wife what the neighbor said the words would be mixed up and out of order, but it got the same meaning across.
I believe that the scenes in Home Improvement played out very well because there was both miscommunication and successful communication because he would get the information from his neighbor, and mix the words up but still be able to get the same point across. I feel that if they changed the character to Jill Taylor being the one that went next door for the advice, then the show would not be as funny because Tim is set out to be goof of the show. I believe that Tim is the one that makes the show funny. He is always messing things up at home or at work, and makes the show have more comedy in it....
