  • Guidelines for Television Criticism
    09-O’Donnell.qxd 2/13/2007 10:27 AM Page 199 9 Guidelines for Television Criticism Introduction Now that you understand the various aspects of television as a business, pro- duction procedures, television style, narrative, genre, elements of rhetoric and cultural studies, representation, and postmodernism, you are ready to do an in-depth analysis of a television program or an episode from a series. Whether you select fiction or nonfiction programming is entirely up to you. Select a program that you can record and will not mind viewing several times because you will need to examine several aspects of it. Select a program that you want to question or one with which you are familiar. As stated in Chapter 1, it is perfectly acceptable to analyze a favorite program or one that suits your inter- ests and tastes. Your goals are to understand the various elements of a televi- sion program, to analyze it, to interpret possible meanings, to judge the quality of the program, and to communicate your assessment in writing. This chapter brings together the elements of the previous chapters into eight sections: (1) critical orientation; (2) story and genre; (3) organization; (4) demographics; (5) context; (6) the look of the program and its codes; (7) analysis; and (8) judgment. Each category includes questions that you can ask about a television program. Depending on what you want to know about the program, you can select a few or all of the categories. Not all the questions will be relevant to the program you have selected, so you can 199 09-O’Donnell.qxd 2/13/2007 10:27 AM Page 200 200—— Chapter 9 choose the questions that are most pertinent.

Hardy-Weinberg Law -------------------- Developed in 1908, the Hardy-Weinberg law is an algebraic formula to estimate the frequency of a dominant or recessive gene in a population based on the frequency with which the trait or condition is found in that population. The derivation takes several steps, but the final formula is... p2 + 2pq + q2 ...in which... § p = frequency of the dominant allele in a population § q = frequency of the recessive allele in the population, and § p + q = 1 Using the frequency for a condition known to be inherited in either an autosomal- recessive or autosomal-dominant manner, the frequency of the genes involved can be assessed. This can be important information in designing and delivering programs to screen for specific mutant genes in targeted populations.

Branagh is lauded as one of the world’s leading Shakespearean interpreters on both stage and film and this production marked his return to Shakespeare after more than a decade. “The Armory enables artists to realize site-specific works that demand presentation space beyond limitations found in traditional theaters or museums,” said Rebecca Robertson, President and Executive Producer of Park Avenue Armory. “We are ecstatic to collaborate with Rob Ashford and Kenneth Branagh, combining their incredible vision with our unconventional space and military history to allow audiences to relive this timeless story in a remarkable new way.” “We are thrilled that Kenneth Branagh will be coming to the Armory to recreate this iconic role following his performance in Manchester this summer,” said Alex Poots, Artistic Director of Park Avenue Armory and Manchester International Festival.
