ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Factual television

Factual television is when people make shows that tell you about facts, things that are true. It is like when you learn about things in school, but instead of a teacher teaching you, a show teaches you.

People make these shows to help you learn new things and to explain things to you in a fun and interesting way. They can be about anything, like animals, history, science, or even how food is made.

Sometimes the shows use real-life footage or interviews with experts to show you information. Other times they use cartoons or animations to make the information easier to understand.

Factual television is a great way to learn new things while also being entertained. So, next time you watch TV, keep an eye out for shows that teach you something new!
