Orange County

Orange County, as a Comedy-Drama, primarily elicits **Humor** due to its absurd situations, the antics of Shaun's dysfunctional family (especially his brother Lance), and the overall lighthearted tone. This leads to significant **Joy** and **Happiness** for the audience. The central plot, Shaun's determined quest to get into Stanford, generates **Anticipation** and **Excitement** as viewers follow his desperate and often chaotic measures. Despite the comedic overlay, the 'Drama' elements evoke **Empathy** for Shaun's struggles with his family and the academic system, and a sense of **Inspiration** from his unwavering pursuit of his dreams. There's also underlying **Anxiety** and a touch of **Sadness** stemming from his dysfunctional home life and the initial setbacks, which are ultimately resolved, leading to **Relief** and **Satisfaction**.
