30 Rock: Complexity, Metareferentiality and the Contemporary Quality Sitcom
30 Rock: Complexity, Metareferentiality and the Contemporary Quality Sitcom Katrin Horn When the sitcom 30 Rock first aired in 2006 on NBC, the odds were against a renewal for a second season. Not only was it pitched against another new show with the same “behind the scenes”-idea, namely the drama series Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. 30 Rock’s often absurd storylines, obscure references, quick- witted dialogues, and fast-paced punch lines furthermore did not make for easy consumption, and thus the show failed to attract a sizeable amount of viewers. While Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip did not become an instant success either, it still did comparatively well in the Nielson ratings and had the additional advantage of being a drama series produced by a household name, Aaron Sorkin1 of The West Wing (NBC, 1999-2006) fame, at a time when high-quality prime-time drama shows were dominating fan and critical debates about TV. Still, in a rather surprising programming decision NBC cancelled the drama series, renewed the comedy instead and later incorporated 30 Rock into its Thursday night line-up2 called “Comedy Night Done Right.”3 Here the show has been aired between other single-camera-comedy shows which, like 30 Rock, 1 | Aaron Sorkin has aEntwurf short cameo in “Plan B” (S5E18), in which he meets Liz Lemon as they both apply for the same writing job: Liz: Do I know you? Aaron: You know my work. Walk with me. I’m Aaron Sorkin. The West Wing, A Few Good Men, The Social Network. -

A number of studies in recent decades have shown that appearance, personality type and ability impact on a child’s popularity at school. Good-looking, easy-going, talented kids usually win peer popularity polls but that doesn’t necessarily guarantee they will have friends. Those children and young people who develop strong friendships have a definite set of skills that help make them easy to like, easy to relate to and easy to play with. -
Arrested Development What Parents Need to Know About Adolescent and Young Adult Substance Abuse
Arrested Development What parents need to know about adolescent and young adult substance abuse The teenage years and young adulthood are times of pushing boundaries, taking risks, and learning through experience. But when alcohol and other drugs are in the mix, risk taking can bring increasingly dangerous and potentially irreversible consequences, including psychological and emotional damage as well as a greater likelihood of developing addiction later in life. Five key considerations for parents are discussed below. 1. The adolescent and young adult brain is not fully mature. Development of the brain’s prefrontal cortex—the center for logical thought, judgment, and higher- order decision making—continues until people reach their early- to mid-20s. Use of alcohol and other psychoactive substances, including marijuana, other illicit drugs, and prescription painkillers, can alter or impair healthy brain development. 2. Teen substance use increases the likelihood of other risky behaviors. Teenagers and young adults tend to feel invincible and many are prone to impulsive behavior. Their focus is less on the consequences and long-term effects of their behavior and more on fitting in socially, testing norms, and experimenting. Alcohol and other drug use can impair the young person’s still-developing capacities for logical thinking and impulse control. 3. Substance use threatens a young person’s emotional development. Adolescents and young adults learn to delay gratifitcation through practice and experience. For example, a young person learns he must study to earn good grades or show up for work on time in order to receive a paycheck. Emotional health and a sense of well-being come as a result of making small efforts on a day-to-day basis that lead to long-term benefitt. -

"Do I Look Like a Chick?": Men, Women, and Babies on Sitcom Maternity Stories1
"Do I Look Like a Chick?": Men, Women, and Babies on Sitcom Maternity Stories1 Judy Kutulas On Monday evening, January 19,1953, forty million Americans watched as the very pregnant Lucy Ricardo (7 Love Lucy, 1951-57) emerged from her bedroom to declare that it was time to go to the hospital.2 What followed was a slapstick salute to 1950s gender stereotypes. Lucy, radiant and serene, was left behind in the panic her announcement generated. Husband Ricky had rehearsed the moment, but choked when it actually arrived, spilling her suitcase, losing the phone, and putting her coat on the neighbor. When they reached the hospital, it was dazed Ricky who rode in the wheelchair. The audience modestly bade goodbye to Lucy at the elevator door, thereafter watching Ricky's response to fatherhood. He paced the fathers' waiting room, exchanged comments with the other fathers about the advantages of sons over daughters, and finally fainted at the sight of his son. Fast-forward about forty years to the blended family of Frank Lambert and Carol Foster {Step by Step, 1991-present): Frank and Carol got off to the hospital without a hitch and we didn't say goodbye to Carol at the elevator. Instead, we saw her in labor, cranky and demanding. Frank was there too, inadequate and embarrassed. Their children, meanwhile, paced the waiting room no longer reserved for fathers, girls in blissful smiles and boys looking uncom fortable. How long does it take to have a baby, one boy asked another. "How should I know," was the reply, "do I look like a chick?" Two TV birthing stories, forty years apart, reveal some curious changes and continuities. -

Last summer, when I would come home from work, he'd be laying on one of our green couches or sitting in the giant brown velvet armchair that my Dad bought himself A plaid-dad George Costanza would be on our rigorously indulgent 42-inch Phillips plasma screen television yelling at Jerry, his glasses brightly flashing directly into the camera, catching my attention and certainly blinding the cameraman. My brother would sit there, transfixed and tired from his day of running up and down the football field, face unsmiling and eyes dimmed.
