Explain the purpose of teases and a wrap in a broadcast.

Teases promote upcoming content; wrap provides closing or call-to-action content at the end.

Teases are short, strategic previews that come during a break or right before one, designed to spark curiosity about what’s coming next and keep viewers watching. They help maintain momentum between stories by hinting at upcoming content and setting expectations, so the audience stays engaged and tuned in.

A wrap is the closing portion of a broadcast. It provides a sense of completion, reinforces the main messages, and often includes a call to action or practical next steps (like where to find more details, what to watch next, or how to connect on social). It helps tidy up the segment, remind viewers of key points, and guide them toward the next part of the show or the next viewing session.

So, teases drive continued viewing by previewing future content, while a wrap closes out with recap and direction for what to do next. Teases aren’t summaries, and wraps aren’t openings.

Teases summarize the main story; wrap shows the credits.

Teases are audio cues; wrap is the opening.

Teases replace the anchor; wrap is the segment lead.
