View, Late Show with David Letterman, and a Special Correspondent for Superbowl XXXIX Frank Caliendo Comedian and Impersonator Extraordinaire Comedian/actor/impressionist Frank Caliendo has been making people laugh his whole career. The man known for his dead-on impressions of famous actors Al Pacino, Robin Williams, and Robert DeNiro; politicians George W. Bush and Bill Clinton; broadcasters John Madden and Charles Barkley; and talk show hosts Dr. Phil, Jay Leno, and David Letterman recently concluded his critically and commercially successful run in Las Vegas at the Monte Carlo Casino and Resort. On stage, Caliendo’s high energy act is a blend of observations, impressions, characters, and anecdotal stories that build to a frenetic pace. Appropriately described by the Hollywood Reporter as "a combination of Robin Williams and Jim Carrey," Caliendo is one comedian that should not be missed. An eleven year veteran of television sketch comedy as a cast member on Madtv and starring in his own series Frank TV, Caliendo has been a fixture on television for the last decade. He has comedy specials that run regularly on TBS and Comedy Central and he is a regular on the late night talk show circuit performing on such shows as The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, Jimmy Kimmel Live, The Tonight Show, The View, Late Show with David Letterman, and a special correspondent for Superbowl XXXIX. Caliendo co-starred in the Twentieth Century Fox feature film The Comebacks with Bradley Cooper, Will Arnett, and Dax Shepard and can also be seen every week on the " FOX NFL SUNDAY" pregame show, where he has worked with Terry Bradshaw, Howie Long, and the rest of the team for the past 9 years; including his “Frank’s Picks” segments featured during Superbowl XXXIX, XLII and XLV broadcasts.

  • The Queer" Third Species": Tragicomedy in Contemporary
    The Queer “Third Species”: Tragicomedy in Contemporary LGBTQ American Literature and Television A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department English and Comparative Literature of the College of Arts and Sciences by Lindsey Kurz, B.A., M.A. March 2018 Committee Chair: Dr. Beth Ash Committee Members: Dr. Lisa Hogeland, Dr. Deborah Meem Abstract This dissertation focuses on the recent popularity of the tragicomedy as a genre for representing queer lives in late-twentieth and twenty-first century America. I argue that the tragicomedy allows for a nuanced portrayal of queer identity because it recognizes the systemic and personal “tragedies” faced by LGBTQ people (discrimination, inadequate legal protection, familial exile, the AIDS epidemic, et cetera), but also acknowledges that even in struggle, in real life and in art, there is humor and comedy. I contend that the contemporary tragicomedy works to depart from the dominant late-nineteenth and twentieth-century trope of queer people as either tragic figures (sick, suicidal, self-loathing) or comedic relief characters by showing complex characters that experience both tragedy and comedy and are themselves both serious and humorous. Building off Verna A. Foster’s 2004 book The Name and Nature of Tragicomedy, I argue that contemporary examples of the tragicomedy share generic characteristics with tragicomedies from previous eras (most notably the Renaissance and modern period), but have also evolved in important ways to work for queer authors. The contemporary tragicomedy, as used by queer authors, mixes comedy and tragedy throughout the text but ultimately ends in “comedy” (meaning the characters survive the tragedies in the text and are optimistic for the future).

IRONIC FEMINISM: RHETORICAL CRITIQUE IN SATIRICAL NEWS A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Rhetorics, Communication, and Information Design by Kathy Elrick December 2016 Accepted by Dr. David Blakesley, Committee Chair Dr. Jeff Love Dr. Brandon Turner Dr. Victor J. Vitanza ABSTRACT Ironic Feminism: Rhetorical Critique in Satirical News aims to offer another perspective and style toward feminist theories of public discourse through satire. This study develops a model of ironist feminism to approach limitations of hegemonic language for women and minorities in U.S. public discourse. The model is built upon irony as a mode of perspective, and as a function in language, to ferret out and address political norms in dominant language. In comedy and satire, irony subverts dominant language for a laugh; concepts of irony and its relation to comedy situate the study’s focus on rhetorical contributions in joke telling. How are jokes crafted? Who crafts them? What is the motivation behind crafting them? To expand upon these questions, the study analyzes examples of a select group of popular U.S.

  • Prime Suspect: Tennison
    BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES Prime Suspect: Tennison Stefanie Martini Jane Tennison in Prime Suspect: Tennison It’s been a busy two years for Stefanie Martini since she graduated from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in 2015. Starring as the young Jane Tennison in MASTERPIECE’s eagerly awaited Prime Suspect prequel, she also appeared on the series last July in a spine-tingling episode of Endeavour, which featured a homicidal tiger. And since May, Amazon audiences have been swooning over her lead role in Julian Fellowes’ lavish adaptation of the Trollope novel Doctor Thorne, in which she plays the angelic heroine opposite Tom Hollander (her uncle in the plot) and Harry Richardson (her character’s heartthrob). In addition to Prime Suspect: Tennison, 2017 will see her portraying Lady Ev in NBC’s ten-part fantasy miniseries Emerald City, and she will appear alongside Gillian Anderson, Glenn Close, and Christina Hendricks in the film adaptation of Agatha Christie’s Crooked House. Sam Reid DI Len Bradfield in Prime Suspect: Tennison Sam Reid plays WPC Jane Tennison’s police mentor in Prime Suspect: Tennison, but in a previous appearance on MASTERPIECE, he was the prime suspect—in a gripping episode of Miss Marple. Reid also performed in the premiere installment of Endeavour. In other television work, he portrayed one of the McCoys in the History Channel’s acclaimed miniseries Hatfields & McCoys, opposite Kevin Costner; and he had the role of the late, great John Glenn in The Astronaut Wives’ Club on ABC. Originally from New South Wales, Australia, Reid completed his acting studies in London in 2010, moving directly to a role in Roland Emmerich’s Shakespeare conspiracy film,Anonymous .

Born in Glasgow, Scotland, he got his start in the entertainment industry as a drummer for several punk bands in the UK.

  • Zathura: a Space Adventure
    An intergalactic world of wonder is waiting just outside your front door in Columbia Pictures' heart-racing sci-fi family film Zathura: A Space Adventure. Zathura: A Space Adventure is the story of two squabbling brothers who are propelled into deepest, darkest space while playing a mysterious game they discovered in the basement of their old house. Now, they must overcome their differences and work together to complete the game or they will be trapped in outer space forever. SYNOPSIS After their father ( Tim Robbins ) leaves for work, leaving them in the care of their older sister ( Kristen Stewart ), six year-old Danny ( Jonah Bobo ) and ten-year old Walter ( Josh Hutcherson ) either get on each other‘s nerves or are totally bored. When their bickering escalates and Walter starts chasing him, Danny hides in a dumbwaiter. But Walter surprises him, and in retaliation, lowers Danny into their dark, scary basement, where he discovers an old tattered metal board game, —Zathura.“ After trying unsuccessfully to get his brother to play the game with him, Danny starts to play on his own. From his first move, Danny realizes this is no ordinary board game. His spaceship marker moves by itself and when it lands on a space, a card is ejected, which reads: —Meteor shower, take evasive action.“ The house is immediately pummeled from above by hot, molten meteors. When Danny and Walter look up through the gaping hole in their roof, they discover, to their horror, that they have been propelled into deepest, darkest outer space. And they are not alone.
