An Analysis of Hegemonic Social Structures in "Friends"
"I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU" IF YOU ARE JUST LIKE ME: AN ANALYSIS OF HEGEMONIC SOCIAL STRUCTURES IN "FRIENDS" Lisa Marie Marshall A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2007 Committee: Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor Audrey E. Ellenwood Graduate Faculty Representative James C. Foust Lynda Dee Dixon © 2007 Lisa Marshall All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the dominant ideologies and hegemonic social constructs the television series Friends communicates in regard to friendship practices, gender roles, racial representations, and social class in order to suggest relationships between the series and social patterns in the broader culture. This dissertation describes the importance of studying television content and its relationship to media culture and social influence. The analysis included a quantitative content analysis of friendship maintenance, and a qualitative textual analysis of alternative families, gender, race, and class representations. The analysis found the characters displayed actions of selectivity, only accepting a small group of friends in their social circle based on friendship, gender, race, and social class distinctions as the six characters formed a culture that no one else was allowed to enter. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project stems from countless years of watching and appreciating television. When I was in college, a good friend told me about a series that featured six young people who discussed their lives over countless cups of coffee. Even though the series was in its seventh year at the time, I did not start to watch the show until that season.

They find out it’s a boy and immediately begin painting the baby room sky blue and add toys such as trucks, tractors, dinosaurs, and zoo/jungle animals. Sounds typical right? It seems normal to us to have those types of toys for a boy because that has been societies’ preconceived way of telling us what should be considered for a boy and what should be considered for a girl. Generation after generation, we continue to repeat these actions because they’re so normal to us.

Americanization and Jewish Identities in the Television Series Friends
International Journal of Religion and Society ISSN: 1935-2409 Volume 5, Number 2 © Nova Science Publishers, Inc. “DO YOU EVEN UNDERSTAND WHAT OFF THE RACK MEANS?” AMERICANIZATION AND JEWISH IDENTITIES IN THE TELEVISION SERIES FRIENDS Martina Topić† Leeds Business School, Leeds Beckett University, Leeds, UK ABSTRACT This paper analyzes American Jewish identities in mega popular television series Friends. The story of the show is centered on six friends: three American Christians, and three American Jews. While the series present American Jews as a normal social reality, there are still problems in terms of their representation. This paper analyzes representation of American Jewish identities in terms of Jewish values and worldviews, and representation of Jewish faith and tradition. A qualitative content analysis of all 10 seasons of the popular show has been conducted. The conclusion of the paper is that the media are enforcing Americanization by creating a cast of Jewish Americans in the American popular culture where Jews are portrayed as Americanized in a sense they embrace Christianity as part of their tradition. Keywords: Jews, Friends, representation, Americanization, religion INTRODUCTION: MEDIA, IDENTITIES, AND JEWS This paper discusses representation of American Jews in the US popular culture using mega popular TV series Friends as a case study. In that, the paper analyses representation of three Jewish characters in the series and juxtaposes this representation against Jewish tradition and religion, as well as against other scholarly work discussing representation of Jews in the popular culture as problematic. Jews are often pictured as characters in American film and series, and on a first impression it appears that Jews have an equal status in the US, which is indeed the case as latest polls reveal that Anti-Semitism is at historically lowest level in the US while it is I would like to thank Professor (Dr) Udi Lebel (Ariel University, Israel) for his helpful comments on the earlier draft of this paper.

I Will Be There for You: Six Friends in a Clique∗
I will be there for you: six friends in a clique∗ Ana L. C. Bazzan Computer Science Institute, UFRGS 91501-970 – P. Alegre, Brazil [email protected] Abstract Network science has proved useful in analyzing structure and dynamics of so- cial networks in several areas. This paper aims at analyzing the relationships of characters in Friends, a famous sitcom. In particular, two important aspects are in- vestigated. First, how are the structure of the communities (groups)? How different methods for community detection perform? Second, not only static structure of the graphs and causality relationships are investigated, but also temporal aspects. After all, this show was aired for ten years and thus plots, roles, and friendship patterns among the characters seem to have changed. Also, this sitcom is frequently asso- ciated with distinguishing facts such as: all six characters are equally prominent; it has no dominant storyline; and friendship as surrogate family. This paper uses tools from network theory to check whether these and other facts can be quantified and proved correct, especially considering the temporal aspect, i.e., what happens in the sitcom along time. The main findings regarding the centrality and tempo- ral aspects are: patterns in graphs representing different time slices of the show change; overall, degrees of the six friends are indeed nearly the same; however, in different situations (thus graphs), the magnitudes of degree centrality do change; betweenness centrality differs significantly for each character thus some characters are better connectors than others; there is a high difference regarding degrees of the six friends versus the rest of the characters, which points to a centralized network; arXiv:1804.04408v3 [cs.SI] 11 Dec 2019 there are strong indications that the six friends are part of a surrogate family.

Issue.3. 2019 (July-Sept.) Could it be any better? - Why F.R.I.E.N.D.S never loses its charm MINU ELIZABETH GEORGE PhD Scholar, Mahama Gandhi University Research Centre St. Xavier’s College for Women, Aluva, Ernakulam, Kerala doi: https://doi.org/10.33329/ijelr.63.46 ABSTRACT Friends is perhaps one of the most popular TV shows ever aired. Spanning from 1995 to 2004, the series ran on NBC for ten seasons. The show portrayed the lives of six friends (Monica, Phoebe, Rachel, Ross, Chandler, and Joey) in New York City, and the different issues they faced while growing from their early twenties to their early thirties: life, love and relationships, work, and so on made part of the different episodes throughout these ten seasons. This paper is an attempt to study the reasons why the series still have an influence on a wide spectrum of audience. MINU ELIZABETH GEORGE Various aspects can be attributed to the success and the vast amount of viewers claimed by the show. The life of major characters of the sitcom can be seen as a cross-section of a working class society. The viewers could easily associate themselves with one of the characters, and such an identification with on-screen characters takes place in various aspects- with respect to gender, occupation, personal traits, cultural backgrounds and so on.

Professor, Dr. Timothy Helwig Unspoken Words: What Our “Friends”
English 280, First Place; Professor, Dr. Timothy Helwig Unspoken Words: What Our “Friends” Say About Us Kelly Crowley Audience Analysis (140 Words): This analysis is written for white, middle class Americans who follow popular media and social trends. It could be published in a popular social analysis magazine, such as The Atlantic. The analysis primarily focuses on the audience’s values of strong friendships and equality among social classes, gender, and race. The goal is to inform readers on the stereotypes associated with race, gender, and social class and shed light onto the influence the popular television show Friends has on these stereotypes. Friends was the first of its kind to combine family and work life into one show at turn of the century and its influence on its large audience was incredibly significant. It is a call to action to recognize the stereotypes in popular television and media, especially the latent comments, and to eliminate the negative impacts they have on viewers. “Television speaks to our collective worries and to our yearning to improve, redeem, or repair our individual or collective lives… Television comments upon and orders, rather than reflects, experience, highlighting public concerns and cultural shifts” (Sandell 143). A common misconception is that mass media is a reflection of the people it targets. However, it is, in fact, the complete opposite; the people reflect the media they consume. With mass media, particularly television shows, shaping the minds of audiences all across America, many people fall victim to believing in the stereotypes commonly represented in their favorite late night sitcoms.

Berish: Consequences of Reinforcing Stereotypes Consequences of Reinforcing Stereotypes: A Look into Representations of Minorities on Television Matthew Berish ultivation theory examines the long-term effects of watching television. The theory states that what an audience watches on television influences their perceptions, C attitudes, and beliefs of reality (Riddle 2009, 1). Television programs and movies are an integral part of many children’s lives, so when these programs depict minorities in a certain way, could this have an impact on their views of different social groups in real life? This paper will examine the consequences of reinforcing stereotypes in television as it relates to the representation of Jews and other minorities. Many of us can think of our favourite television program or movie that portrays a Jewish character. Many would think it is great to have such an overwhelming representation of a marginalized group, but the reality is that Jewish characters are often poorly represented, and their characters reinforce negative stereotypes.
