  • Diagnosing Drama: Grey's Anatomy, Blind Casting, and the Politics Of
    Diagnosing Drama: Grey’s Anatomy, Blind Casting, and the Politics of Representation AMY LONG N FEBRUARY 5, 2006 NEARLY THIRTY-EIGHT MILLION VIEWERS CHOSE TO forego post-Super Bowl celebrations in favor of tuning in to a Omuch-hyped episode of ABC’s hit medical melodrama Grey’s Anatomy. The episode thus constitutes ‘‘the best scripted-series perfor- mance since the series finale of Friends’’ in 2004 and ‘‘the best per- formance of an ABC show since an episode of Home Improvement in 1994’’ (‘‘Grey’s Scores Big’’). Grey’s Anatomy and its multiracial ensem- ble stand in marked contrast to the all-white casts of both aforemen- tioned shows, a fact that has not been lost on media observers. When civil rights groups issued their annual ‘‘diversity report cards’’ for 2006, ABC garnered the highest overall grade of the four major net- works (an A-), thanks in part to shows like Grey’s Anatomy, Lost, and Ugly Betty (‘‘Grey’s Leads Charge’’). Its diverse cast and the production practices through which it was assembled have been the major focus of the media attention conferred upon Grey’s, second only to stories con- cerning the colossal audiences it routinely snags.1 The show’s creator, Shonda Rhimes (currently the only African American woman ‘‘showrunner’’ in network television), gives the credit for her show’s diversity to her ‘‘race-blind’’ casting methods. In her Time Magazine profile of the writer and producer, Jeanne McDowell notes that ‘‘[Rhimes’] script for the pilot had no physical descriptions [of its characters] other than gender,’’ a statement repeated in almost all of the popular press coverage the show receives.2 As Rhimes herself affirmed in an interview with Oprah Winfrey, ‘‘We really read every color actor for every single part.

  • As Heard on TV
    Hugvísindasvið As Heard on TV A Study of Common Breaches of Prescriptive Grammar Rules on American Television Ritgerð til BA-prófs í Ensku Ragna Þorsteinsdóttir Janúar 2013 2 Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið Enska As Heard on TV A Study of Common Breaches of Prescriptive Grammar Rules on American Television Ritgerð til BA-prófs í Ensku Ragna Þorsteinsdóttir Kt.: 080288-3369 Leiðbeinandi: Pétur Knútsson Janúar 2013 3 Abstract In this paper I research four grammar variables by watching three seasons of American television programs, aired during the winter of 2010-2011: How I Met Your Mother, Glee, and Grey’s Anatomy. For background on the history of prescriptive grammar, I discuss the grammarian Robert Lowth and his views on the English language in the 18th century in relation to the status of the language today. Some of the rules he described have become obsolete or were even considered more of a stylistic choice during the writing and editing of his book, A Short Introduction to English Grammar, so reviewing and revising prescriptive grammar is something that should be done regularly. The goal of this paper is to discover the status of the variables ―to lay‖ versus ―to lie,‖ ―who‖ versus ―whom,‖ ―X and I‖ versus ―X and me,‖ and ―may‖ versus ―might‖ in contemporary popular media, and thereby discern the validity of the prescriptive rules in everyday language. Every instance of each variable in the three programs was documented and attempted to be determined as correct or incorrect based on various rules. Based on the numbers gathered, the usage of three of the variables still conforms to prescriptive rules for the most part, while the word ―whom‖ has almost entirely yielded to ―who‖ when the objective is called for.

  • 2019 Tournament Problem
    2019 Tournament Problem No. 18–00324–CV Jordan Webber, § In the 85th District Court Individually and as § Independent Executor of the § Estate of Adele Webber, § § v. § § Isobel Stevens Duquette, § Denny Duquette, Sr., and § South Texas Cares, Inc. § Capitol County, South Texas PRETRIAL CONFERENCE REPORT After a hearing before the Court with counsel for both parties present, the Court determines: 1. This is a wrongful death lawsuit to recover damages. 2. Jordan Webber brought this suit individually and as the legal representative of Adele Webber’s estate, claiming Isobel Stevens Duquette, Denny Duquette, Sr., and South Texas Cares, Inc. wrongfully caused the death of Adele Webber by conspiring to deprive her of a heart transplant that could have and would have saved her life. 3. Isobel Stevens Duquette, Denny Duquette, Sr., and South Texas Cares, Inc. have generally denied the allegations. PRETRIAL CONFERENCE REPORT — 1 4. This Court granted summary judgment on liability because certain facts are undisputed. The defendants breached, or participated in the breach of, confidentiality. But for the defendant’s actions, the donated heart at issue in this case would have gone to Adele Webber. The defendants entered into, or facilitated, a financial transaction where the heart was not only diverted from Adele Webber but was also the subject of a quid pro quo arrangement in violation of South Texas law. As a result, no genuine issue of material fact exists as to whether the defendants are substantive liable. 5. This Court bifurcated the trial of the remaining issues in this case. The trial of the first phase was held January 14-18, 2019.

Alexandra Imogen Hibbett Diez Canseco Dr. Víctor Alexander Huerta Mercado Tenorio Dr. Juan Carlos Ubilluz Raygada Lima, noviembre de 2014 Escuela de Posgrado Maestría en Estudios Culturales Incorporando la contradicción Representación de la relación amorosa romántica entre los personajes Meredith Grey y Derek Shepherd en la serie televisiva Grey’s Anatomy Autor: Juan Manuel Auza Camacho Resumen Esta tesis intenta demostrar que la forma en que la serie televisiva Grey’s Anatomy construye la relación amorosa romántica entre los personajes Meredith Grey y Derek Shepherd incorpora la contradicción como elemento constituyente de su existencia. Este planteamiento recupera la diferencia planteada por Georg Hegel entre existencia y existir, comprendiendo la existencia como unilateral y finita, y al existir como diverso y múltiple. Así, esta tesis busca probar que la forma en que la serie televisiva Grey’s Anatomy presenta el encuentro entre los personajes Meredith Grey y Derek Shepherd, las distintas crisis que atraviesa su relación amorosa romántica, y finalmente, su matrimonio, obliga a estos personajes a comprender el amor incorporando necesariamente su contradicción, es decir, a comprender al amor en su existir y no en su existencia. Lo que propone esta tesis es que esa forma distinta de comprender el amor romántico, aun cuando ocurre ficcionalmente, puede ayudarnos a comprender el amor romántico en la realidad.
