Scott Campbell certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: PERFECTION, WRETCHED, NORMAL, AND NOWHERE: A REGIONAL GEOGRAPHY OF AMERICAN TELEVISION SETTINGS Committee: Chairperson* Date approved: ii ABSTRACT Drawing inspiration from numerous place image studies in geography and other social sciences, this dissertation examines the senses of place and regional identity shaped by more than seven hundred American television series that aired from 1947 to 2007. Each state‘s relative share of these programs is described. The geographic themes, patterns, and images from these programs are analyzed, with an emphasis on identity in five American regions: the Mid-Atlantic, New England, the Midwest, the South, and the West. The dissertation concludes with a comparison of television‘s senses of place to those described in previous studies of regional identity. iii For Sue iv CONTENTS List of Tables vi Acknowledgments vii 1.

    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-04393-0 - Viewing America: Twenty-First-Century Television Drama Christopher Bigsby Frontmatter More information VIEWING AMERICA Something has happened in the world of television drama. For the last decade and a half America has assumed a dominant position. Novelists, screenwriters and journalists, who would once have had no interest in writing for television, indeed who often despised it, suddenly realised that it was where America could have a dialogue with itself. The new television drama was where writers could engage with the social and political realities of the time, interrogating the myths and values of a society moving into a new century. Familiar genres have been reinvented, from crime fiction to science fiction. This is a book as much about a changing America as about the television series which have addressed it, from The Sopranos and The Wire to The West Wing, Mad Men and Treme, in what has emerged as the second golden age of American television drama. christopher bigsby is Professor of American Studies at the Uni- versity of East Anglia. A Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and the Royal Society of Arts, he is an award-winning academic, novelist and biographer and has published more than fifty books, including six novels. His first novel, Hester (1995), won the McKitterick Prize, and Beautiful Dreamer (2002) was an American Library Association Notable Book. With Don Wilmeth, he won the Bernard Hewitt Award for Outstanding Research in Theatre History and the George Freedley Jury Award for The Cambridge History of American The- atre (1998–2000).

  • Read It Here
    Steve Burke Chief Executive Officer NBC Universal, Inc. 30 Rockefeller Center New York, NY 10112 Dear Steve, It has come to our attention that freelance staff who write and produce nonfiction programming for NBC’s Peacock Productions have voted in a National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) election to determine whether or not they wish to be represented by the Writers Guild of America, East (WGAE). As members of that organization, and as employees of NBC, we have a particular interest in the outcome of this election. However, we don’t yet know the results because the ballots have been impounded. Our understanding is that these ballots have been impounded because NBC has chosen to pursue a legal strategy to nullify the votes of over half of the eligible voters in this election on the grounds that they are supervisors and not entitled to any protections under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA); a strategy that has already failed at the regional level of the NLRB. We disagree with the Company’s position that these freelancers are supervisory and not entitled to the right to collectively bargain. Their work has so much in common with our own. Their careers and livelihoods depend on many of the same things that ours do – health insurance, fair pay, pensions, residuals – things that the WGA has historically collectively bargained with you for. To seek to deny theseDEADLINE.com freelancers the same rights and privileges that we enjoy is unfair, especially if the majority of them have indicated in an NLRB election that it is their desire to have them.
